4. Wide Receiver

While the secondary benefit more than any other position group from quality and quantity, the receiver position benefits the most from my belief in their potential.

As things currently stand, there are probably other position groups that deserve to be ranked higher than this one.

However, for the time being, I feel the Broncos have a big-time veteran playmaker in Emmanuel Sanders to lead this young group of future studs.

Those future studs include 2018 second-round pick Courtland Sutton, fourth-round pick DaeSean Hamilton, training camp breakout star Tim Patrick, and 2019 sixth-round pick Juwann Winfree.

Beyond those guys, the Broncos have a number of intriguing sleepers and camp players who can make plays in a variety of ways.

River Cracraft looked really good all of last offseason, specifically working from the slot. Brendan Langley has the top-end speed the Broncos need more of at this position.

The Broncos may have some fun players among their 2019 UDFA crop as well, including ultra-athletic Trinity Benson.
