Wide Receivers

Courtland Sutton, Jerry Jeudy, K.J. Hamler, Tim Patrick, DaeSean Hamilton, Diontae Spencer (6)

What was very recently considered a weakness has now become a strength of the Denver Broncos.

Denver went back-to-back at the wide receiver position in the 2020 NFL Draft, selecting Jerry Jeudy in the first round and then K.J. Hamler in the second. Those two moves will cost some guys their spots on the 2020 roster.

Courtland Sutton, Jerry Jeudy, and K.J. Hamler are the top three receivers on the roster. They are not going anywhere but up on this team. The questions remain about who the team keeps past those top three.

To be quite honest, I’m not sure how many rosters the rest of these players would be able to make. Sure they do show some okay things, but in the NFL, “okay” is not always good enough. That’s why the Broncos went out to draft three receivers in the 2020 draft.

Tyrie Cleveland was one of the cuts, as there really is only room for so many receivers. Cleveland was a seventh-round pick by the team.
