5. Continued growth of the 2020 rookie class

Although the Denver Broncos have gotten some immediate impact from their 2020 NFL Draft class, it has also been slow going in some regards.

Jerry Jeudy has proven he’s as advertised with his route running abilities and big-play potential, but he’s had to deal with the quarterback changes just like everyone else and better days are ahead for him.

KJ Hamler has still been dealing with a hamstring issue that has limited him to just a couple of appearances.

Lloyd Cushenberry III has struggled through his first four games, and Michael Ojemudia has shown flashes of brilliance while getting picked on at times as well.
