The Denver Broncos have selected wide receiver DaeSean Hamilton out of Penn State with the 113th overall pick in the fourth round of the 2018 NFL Draft.

Hamilton is among the best route-runners in the draft and should make an impact immediately for the Broncos passing game under new quarterback Case Keenum.

The selection of Hamilton comes after the club already drafted Courtland Sutton on Friday, signifying a commitment to improving the receiving corps headed to next season.
