2020 Broncos Forum NFL Draft Thread

A name no one isn’t talking about is AJ Epenesa. With fewer teams running a 3-4 he could fall (As 3-4DE is clearly his position). If so, he would be the east pick. I would even trade up for him. Ideal frame, elite motor and production, great character, long arms. He checks all the boxes for the types of guys we look for from both a DL and overall franchise POV. I think he could be a ideal fit long term (We still need a future running mate for Jones, Shelby is a stopgap / Walker is a specialist / Casey should play most snaps at NT)

If Swift somehow makes it that far, Tampa will pounce.   Brady needs his pass catching security blanket in the backfield.  Godwin in the slot, Gronk somewhere, and James White clone in the backfield.   Getting Wirfs for them was huuuuuge.   That's a sneaky division winner long-shot pre-TB12 now looking like at worst a 2-1 prop (but was 10-1 in Feb).

I don't even think Brady has much left but that's a good football team. Bowles + a talented front 7, Arians + those weapons on offense.

Great call. Drop in replacement for Wolfe

So with the acquisition of Jeudy, wonder how Sutton handles it, he took umbridge with Sander.

Very different skill sets, they should complement each other well.   

To be clear, we shouldn't stop here for WR.   Get a Lynn Bowden type weapon in Rd3-4.   Or a more vertical threat.   I'm DEAD serious when I say no one on the WR roster except Jeudy & Sutton should be seen as safe for 2021 for a top-5 spot (I get many will stick around for 2020).  They're just not difference-makers.

Best part of Jeudy is how well he complements Sutton. And a perfect fir in the Shurmer offense.  Really couldn’t have worked out better.  Now go get Hamler😜

Agreed, but whose the WR#1 ? Jeudy now comes in as a first round pick from a top-rated program

Next year, Sutton's the guy.

2021....up for debate.   Kinda like how Sanders & DT co-existed for the peak years quite well.   The thing about Sutton was that he was also underutilized because it was Case freaking Keenum throwing the ball.    

I really don't see that it's going to be an issue in 2021 - for 2020, Jeudy's going to adjust to a new system, and a huge jump in competition.  He'll cope very well IMO, but it will still be an adjustment year.   2021, though....

Guys we likely will target:

CB Trevon Diggs

CB Kristian Fulton

CB Jaylon Johnson (most likely to fall to 2.46 out of 3 IMO)

S Antoine Winfield

S Kyle Duggar

S Xavier McKinney (most likely to fall IMO with Duggar)

T Ezra Cleveland

T Josh Jones 

DL Justin Madubuike

 

Not nearly as high on Gross-Matos as others, and I don't expect EDGE Espenensa, RB's Swift & Taylor to last much longer.
