The versatile offensive lineman is considered a Day 3 developmental prospect in the 2025 NFL Draft.
Leaving no stone unturned in order to fortify their roster, the Denver Broncos continue their pre-draft diligence hoping to unearth another diamond in the rough in the 2025 NFL Draft this April.
According to Ryan Fowler of The Draft Network, the Broncos recently conducted a 30 visit with Indiana offensive tackle Trey Wedig.
A reserve player for most of his career with the Badgers, Wedig played in 35 games and saw time as a starter at right tackle, right guard, and left guard during his 2022 season. This past year, he transferred to the University of Indiana and manned down the right tackle spot for the Hoosiers starting all 13 games.
He was a big reason for the team’s impeccable turnaround under coach Curt Cignetti. Their offense was much improved in 2024 and a lot of that has to do with the players up front. Wedig and his fellow offensive lineman are one of the reasons they accumulated over 2,500 yards on the ground and scored nearly 40 rushing touchdowns enroute to a 11-2 record and berth in the FBS College Playoffs.

According to Pro Football Focus, Wedig earned the seventh best grade of any tackle from the Power 4 conferences this past season and was a top-notch contributor as a run blocker. While he did not receive an invite to the 2025 NFL Combine, he did have a chance to perform in front of NFL scouts and evaluators at the East-West Shrine Bowl.
At the Hoosiers’ Pro Day, he measured in at 6’6-1/2” and 310 pounds. He had a hand size of 9-3/4”, arm length of 32-3/4” and a wingspan of 81-3/4”. His arm length is under the 34” threshold most teams prefer, but he is still viewed as a developmental Day 3 prospect that has the shot to earn a spot on of an NFL roster.
Just like I had written with respect to the Cam Miller news, the Broncos do have three picks in the sixth round of this year’s draft. While it’s far too early to know who they will target there, these 30 visits provide them with a lot of important information to help prioritize their late-round picks and priority college free agent wish list.
