Jarek Broussard’s 2019 season was over before it even began due to a second torn ACL. Initially, it seemed that his 2020 season was lost due to the COVID-19 pandemic before the Pac-12 installed an abbreviated season. While he and the Buffs would only compete in five regular-season games and the Alamo Bowl, it was enough for Broussard to command…...

This week we turn our eyes to the Meadowlands to follow Shurmur and Evan Engram from 2018-2019 to project Noah Fant’s future outlook and utility in Denver’s…...

Entering the final season of his rookie contract, Justin Simmons timed his breakout season perfectly. The first three years of his career showed real promise as Simmons flashed natural athleticism and a tendency for making big plays. It all came together in 2019 for Simmons as he was able to put up career numbers in interceptions (four) and passes defended…...

Jerry Jeudy and Pat Shurmur making their way to the Mile High City in 2020 is not a coincidence. Both were brought in to help revive an offense that has been lifeless since 2015. Even though Shurmur’s second attempt at leading an NFL team was disappointing, he remains one of the more simple yet forward-thinking and adaptable offensive coordinators in…...

If any city knows what a dominant secondary can do for a defense it’s Denver. Chris Harris Jr. has departed and the “No-Fly Zone” is nothing but a memory. Rebuilding the secondary now becomes a priority on the defensive side of the ball. The 2020 NFL Draft features a solid group of cornerbacks with some Day Two players that could…...

The 2020 NFL Draft features one of the deepest receiving groups the league has ever seen. Coincidentally, the Denver Broncos enter the 2020 Draft with one of the weakest wide receiving corps in the NFL.
