Barron was way too good of a prospect to pass up when the Broncos went on the clock, even if cornerback wasn't necessarily the team's biggest need at the time. He will now join a unit coached by defensive coordinator Vance Joseph that ranked among the NFL's best in 2024.

The Denver Broncos finally sign first-round pick Jahdae Barron to his rookie contract, totaling four years for $18.07 million with a $9.8 million signing bonus.

With Barron's agreement, 31 of 32 first-rounders have signed with their squads, leaving the Cincinnati Bengals' Shemar Stewart as the last of the class unsigned.
