Deebo Samuel to Broncos? Weighing Options

0:00For the NFL, it's March 4th. Here's what's happening. The Denver Broncos' Widers-Heaver Group looks solid, with Courtland Sutton, Marvin Mims' Jr., Troy Franklin, and Pat Bryan leading the way. These guys bring real talent and different skills to the table. Still, fans in Broncos' country are buzzing about a big offseason addition to boost the passing game. Debel Samuel just wrapped up a stint with the Washington Commanders and now hits free agency at age 30. In 16 games last season, he grabbed 72 passes for 727 yards and five touchdowns. Over his seven-year career, he's versatile, racking up over 5,000 receiving yards plus a thousand rushing with 21 scores. Team leaders like head coach Sean Payton and General Manager George Payton have praised their current receivers highly. Fans, though, want more firepower after last year's rumors linking Samuel to Denver fell through when he got traded elsewhere. Many see him as a chain mover who fits Payton's short past style.

1:03Samuel shines after the catch with a lead evasion that could spark Denver's offense. About half his grabs turn into first downs and he's dynamic on screens. That said, his projected salary around $15,800,000 a year ranks high and the Broncos planned to spend smartly without. Going overboard, while Samuel could make them better right away, the team might skip free agency and target the deep wide receiver class in the draft instead. They'll weigh options carefully, especially with other needs like running back on the table. This story is made possible by our sponsor. Do not just fall asleep. Drift into what you are listening to.
