Two wide receivers in a row?

Why not?

The Broncos don’t have a ton of solidified playmakers in their offense outside of the top three guys right now (Phillip Lindsay, Courtland Sutton, Noah Fant) so they should be more than open to finding guys in this draft class who can help the offense, especially in the big play department.

Jefferson is enjoying a breakout season for the Tigers this year with Joe Burrow at quarterback, already with a career-high 55 receptions and nine touchdowns while averaging 14.9 per catch.

Along with Devonta Smith and Courtland Sutton, Jefferson would give the Broncos an enviable trio of young receivers to spread the ball around to, and then they would have DaeSean Hamilton and Tim Patrick or Diontae Spencer to throw in the mix along with Noah Fant and the tight ends.

Jefferson is a long receiver with excellent speed and a big catch radius. He’s showing off his catch radius this season and his burst after the catch with some explosive plays and a really fun highlight reel.
