20. Denver Broncos

David Njoku . 20. player. 45. It sounds like the Denver Broncos are planning to put more on the plate of Trevor Siemian or Paxton Lynch in 2017. Not surprising. John Elway is a former quarterback so he’d naturally want an offense built around that position. If that’s the case though then the team must do everything in their power to make either player a success. While Demaryius Thomas and Emmanuel Sanders are still two great receivers, this unit needs another weapon. <p>One presence they’ve missed the past couple years is Julius Thomas at tight end. His receiving ability made life hell for defenses because most just had no way to match up with him. David Njoku is much the same type of player. A big athlete who is quick and can run really well. His after-the-catch ability is some of the best seen at the position in years. To say nothing of his underrated qualities as a blocker.</p>. TE. Miami Fl.
