When NFL teams descended on the 2019 scouting combine in Indianapolis, they were bombarded with defensive front-line talent.

By the time the draft rolled around, teams spent 10 of the first 19 picks on defensive linemen and edge rushers, including the likes of Nick Bosa, Quinnen Williams, Dexter Lawrence, and Jeffery Simmons. Along with that star-studded group, a pair of somewhat less-heralded players shined.

Player A: 6-foot-4, 281 pounds. 40-yard dash: 5.00 seconds. Broad jump: 112 inches. Vertical: 32.5 inches. Shuttle: 4.36 seconds. Three-cone: 7.34 seconds.

Player B: 6-foot-3, 281 pounds. 40-yard dash: 5.12 seconds. Broad jump: 110 inches. Vertical: 31.5 inches. Shuttle: 4.53 seconds. Three-cone: 7.71 seconds.

Player A was drafted No. 65 overall. Player B went six picks later. Over the past three seasons, they’ve played 1,850 defensive snaps over 41 games and 1,892 snaps over 42 games, respectively. They each signed three-year contracts upon reaching free agency this offseason. Player A got slightly more guaranteed money and Player B got a slightly higher average annual value.

Player A: Zach Allen, the former Arizona defensive lineman who signed with Denver on the first day of free agency for three years and up to $45.75 million ($32.5 million guaranteed).

Player B: Dre’Mont Jones, the former Broncos defensive lineman whom Denver let hit free agency and subsequently sign a three-year deal for up to $51 million ($30 million guaranteed) with Seattle.

Through their rookie contracts, Allen has generally been considered the superior run defender and Jones has put together better pass-rush numbers. Now, they’ve switched divisions.

The Broncos’ defensive roles will change slightly under new defensive coordinator Vance Joseph but Denver will be counting on Allen to in essence replace Jones.

“One of the ‘musts’ (in free agency) was Dre’Mont and/or that position,” Broncos head coach Sean Payton said late last month in Arizona. “And we didn’t feel like it was deep.”

“Dre’Mont was a really good player for us and wish him all the best in Seattle,” general manager George Paton said. “Zach, we feel is really good in the run game, provides some inside pass-rush as well. When you watch tape of Zach, it’s just the way he plays. He’s relentless, he’s all over the field. He can play the run and rush the passer.”

Allen, 25, missed the final four games of the 2022 season with a hand injury that required surgery, but to that point was putting together his best season. Over the first 13 games, he had 5.5 sacks (25 pressures, per Pro Football Reference) and eight passes defended. And Allen should benefit from continuity, too, in Denver, considering he gets to continue playing under Joseph, the same defensive coordinator he spent his first four professional seasons with.

“Vance knows Zach and just as important, Zach knows Vance,” Jacksonville defensive line coach Brenston Buckner, who coached Allen as Arizona’s defensive line coach in 2020-21, told The Post. “I talked to him when he made his decision and said, ‘You’re one of the few people that hit it big in free agency and goes to a new team but gets to play in the same defense on a new team. It’s set up for success.

“You don’t have to do nothin’ but change the color of your uniform and your address.”
