Wide Receivers (6)

Demaryius Thomas, Emmanuel Sanders, Jordan Taylor, Cody Latimer, Carlos Henderson, Isaiah McKenzie

For this position, it is a given that Demaryius Thomas and Emmanuel Sanders are good to go. Jordan Taylor showed a lot of promise last season to give him a roster spot.

Cody Latimer’s abilities on special teams are the reason why I gave him a roster spot over Bennie Fowler. But it does go without saying that Latimer better improve his game on offense. Both rookie wideouts Henderson and McKenzie get a spot here due to their abilities.

Isaiah McKenzie will be a huge threat on special teams and could see some time in the slot position. Carlos Henderson could see some time in the slot too.

If Cody Latimer does struggle, I could see Bennie Fowler taking his spot on the final 53.
