Wide Receiver

Emmanuel Sanders
Courtland Sutton
DaeSean Hamilton
Tim Patrick
Juwann Winfree
River Cracraft (or new player)

Cuts: Fred Brown, Kelvin McKnight, Trinity Benson, Steven Dunbar Jr., Brendan Langley

There is not going to be much drama here, but the Broncos could very well keep only five players at receiver depending on what they decide about their punt return position.

There are players out there who could help the team in the punt return department and at wide receiver. Did Cracraft do enough? I think he did enough to be sort of that “53rd” guy for now.

The other five guys I think are absolute locks. I wouldn’t be surprised if the Broncos had a tough time deciding between Fred Brown and Cracraft, but for some odd reason, Brown didn’t get any looks at punt returner.

I would say Brown, McKnight, and Benson are all strong practice squad candidates.
