Denver Broncos: Jeffrey Okudah and other top trade-up targets in 2020
The Denver Broncos could be poised to move up in the 2020 NFL Draft, but wide receivers aren’t the only likely targets. Jeffrey Okudah tops the list.
The Denver Broncos are not going to limit themselves to any one possibility in the 2020 NFL Draft, nor should they. John Elway is going into the 2020 draft with needs on the offensive line, at cornerback, and of course at wide receiver.
This team could go any one of those three directions in the first round with wide receiver seeming to be the most likely followed by cornerback and then offensive line.
Picking 15th overall in the first round, the Broncos are in an interesting position to be able to really trade up or down depending on how the board falls, and there are plenty of scenarios that could present themselves that would cause the Broncos to potentially inquire about a trade up into the top 10 selections.
For the Broncos to trade up for someone, the need has to be desperate or the player has to be so high on their board that trading up is worth the draft capital.
Those situations are honestly pretty rare but right now, just about everyone thinks the Broncos are one of the likeliest teams in the NFL to trade up from their current draft position. With four selections on day two of the draft, the Broncos do have the ammo to move up.
Here are players who might be worth pulling the trigger and giving up the picks.
