In the 2020 NFL Draft, the Broncos decided to use their first-round pick to select Jerry Jeudy. He was one of the best prospects of his class, and the expectations placed on him were really high.

In his first season with his new team, Jeudy had a rather underwhelming year, recording 52 receptions for 856 yards and three touchdowns. Unfortunately, his career has been marred by injuries, preventing him from proving that he was truly worthy of a first-round pick.

For this reason, it seems like his time in Colorado will come to an end soon. With the Broncos struggling in the 2023 season, the team’s front office is considering to trade their best players in order to acquire top draft picks and build a better future, just like they did with Bradley Chubb last year.

While the Broncos used their 2020 15th overall pick to draft Jerry Jeudy, they understand that they won’t receive a first-round selection in return. Nevertheless, because Jeudy is still regarded as a top-tier receiver by many executives, the request for a second-round pick does seem reasonable.
