Denver BroncosTight Ends (4, 13/53):

Albert Okwuegbunam, Greg Dulcich, Eric Saubert, Andrew Beck

I’ll be honest here… Outside of Albert Okwuegbunam and rookie draft pick Greg Dulcich, I don’t see much production from the tight end position. Russell Wilson will utilize those two a great amount

Eric Tomlinson has 18 receptions over his six-year NFL career and Andrew Beck will be utilized as a fullback role, if anything.

The thing about the receiving group (tight ends, running backs, wide reeeivers all included), is that the Denver Broncos don’t necessarily need more than their top-two guys.

However, Okwuegbunam has been dealing with injuries during his short NFL career, so that could potentially be an issue down the road.

Tomlinson might be off the roster here depending on Eric Saubert’s play in training camp and the preseason. That will be my prediction.
