How the Broncos' desire for more draft picks affects Jerry Jeudy's future

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. – With a little over a month until the NFL draft, the Denver Broncos find themselves in a difficult situation of wanting more picks.

Wide receiver Jerry Jeudy might be the solution.

As it stands, because of the trades to acquire quarterback Russell Wilson and coach Sean Payton, the Broncos won’t have a selection until the third round -- picks Nos. 67 and 68. Broncos general manager George Paton has expressed a desire to get back into the first or second round. But, after seven consecutive playoff misses and a fourth coaching change since January of 2017, their roster has a short list of players who could command those kinds of picks.
