Offensive line: Elijah Wilkinson

Rich Scangarello, the Broncos’ offensive coordinator, highlighted Wilkinson as the team’s biggest surprise standout offensively so far in training camp.

Wilkinson could be your primary swing tackle if he plays his cards right.

He was a starter for the Broncos on basically an emergency basis last year as a right guard. The Broncos had so many injuries up front they really just had nowhere else to turn.

Wilkinson stepped in and did an okay job, but he’s more of a tackle than a guard and perhaps this is his time to shine.

The Broncos have a need for depth at tackle. Wilkinson could be the one to provide it.
