Four Positional Upgrades

It certainly is not far fetched to say that the Denver Broncos are a piece or two away from contending in the AFC again. And with the shift in power moving, this would be a great time for the Broncos to get better so that they can be a part of greatness.

To do that, Denver needs to focus on four key positions in my opinion. They are cornerback, wide receiver, inside linebacker, and punter. I am not sure that Chris Harris Jr. returns. I think having DeVantae Bausby returning will help at that position.

Depending on what happens with DaeSean Hamilton, the Broncos are really going to need a second option as a wide receiver. May I suggest CeeDee Lamb in the first round for the Broncos?

I think Denver found their first linebacker in Alexander Johnson. They will need to find someone to compliment him if Josey Jewell does not work out. That is where the draft can come into play.

And for punter, I have been asking for a new one since preseason. Denver tried out some punters for future contracts. Hopefully one of them can do well to position themselves as the new Broncos punter.
