John Elway made no secret about the desire to upgrade the wide receiver position this past offseason. In his season-ending press conference he expressed the desire to add speed to the group, so it wasn’t a shock when both Jerry Jeudy and K.J. Hamler were drafted in the opening rounds of the 2020 NFL draft. Add in Tyrie Cleveland, who was drafted out of Florida in the fifth round, and the Broncos now carry 13 receivers on their roster. They’ll carry six, maybe seven into the regular season.
Back when I first predicted the Broncos’ 2020 roster, I thought both would make it, but perhaps that isn’t the case.
