23. Denver Broncos

45. Age is starting to creep up on the top wide receivers of the Denver Broncos offense. Demaryius Thomas turns 30-years old in October and Emmanuel Sanders turned 30 in March. Outside of those two the options are a bit tricky. Bennie Fowler and Cody Latimer still have some promise and there is a nice little buzz around 3rd round rookie Carlos Henderson. That said the group doesn’t appear very deep at this point. <p>Christian Kirk will provide that depth and a look towards the future at the same time. Don’t be fooled by his 5’11” size. The young man is quick, agile and fast. He’s also reliable, having posted over 900 yards and nine touchdowns despite a number of issues at the quarterback position. He looks like another potential Antonio Brown type, who wins more with motor and route running than with sheer size.</p>. WR. Texas A&amp;M. Christian Kirk . 23. player
