2. Denver Broncos Wide Receiver ROOM is a Great Value
Courtland Sutton and Tim Patrick both signed contract extensions during the 2021 season, with both deals looking like great values.
Courtland Sutton is expecting to have just north of a $5 million cap hit for the 2022 season & Tim Patrick is just below $4 million. Jerry Jeudy, on his rookie deal, is expected to have a larger cap hit in 2022 than Tim Patrick who just signed an extension months ago.
No, that is not advocating for Jerry Jeudy to be traded because he is expensive.
Sutton and Patrick are two physically dominant, contested catch monsters who are willing and capable blockers on the outside too. To have both of those guys on a roster, especially for right around $9 million dollars is better than a great value, it is an incredible value.
K.J. Hamler is another dynamic playmaker, a speedster that is scheduled to be less than a $2 million dollar cap hit for the upcoming season. If you add the cap hit from Courtland Sutton, Tim Patrick, Jerry Jeudy, and K.J. Hamler up, it is roughly $15 million for the four.
There are five guys in the NFL alone this season that are expected to cost more than that entire group, some of the names are tough pills to swallow too. Nelson Agholor and Kenny Golladay are a couple of them, then guys like Cooper Kupp, DeAndre Hopkins, and Keenan Allen round the group out.
Hard to argue that there is a better wide receiver group in the NFL that possessed a greater value than what the Denver Broncos have in 2022.
This last great value may come as a shock to some, but for I think will be the Denver Broncos’ starting right tackle, there is an argument made for one of Garrett Bolles’ closest friends.
