The first ever "virtual draft" in NFL history is now in full swing for the 2020 season. My Denver Broncos who held the 15th spot to pick a player had big needs at two positions, WR & Offensive Line. (specifically tackle)
Most of the good tackles were already gone by the time it got around to us to it made the decision easy with two of the top three wide receivers still on the board for GM John Elway.
Jeudy was this years Fred Biletnikoff award winner in college football which recognizes the best college wide receiver in the NCAA. Playing at a winning program who plays top notch competition every week in the SEC is an added security blanket for the Denver Broncos in my opinion.
He does not have blazing speed but still ran a respectable 4.4 40 yard dash at the NFL Combine and is considered the best pure route runner in the NCAA. Pair that with the skills of Courtland Sutton and now Drew Lock has a legit 1-2 punch on the outside to score some points.

The good news is Jeudy can play outside but his most dangerous position should be in the slot next to Sutton which will cause lots of issues for secondaries in the NFL.
Some question the health of his knee but, lets just hope as Broncos fans he brings the same kind of fire in his game that he did at Alabama.
Welcome to Denver Jerry Jeudy.....Go Broncos!!
