How third-round pick Carlos Henderson fits on the Broncos

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — Everybody on the Broncos – from John Elway to Vance Joseph to Chris Harris Jr. to Aqib Talib – wanted more juice.

After a 2016 season that lacked explosive plays on the offensive side of the ball, the team was searching for a player that could change a game in a flash.

The Broncos got that in Carlos Henderson.

The Louisiana Tech product wasn’t the top-ranked wideout on the board, but his selection represents great value at the 82nd-overall pick.
