7 Possible Denver Broncos targets in the 2019 NFL Draft

Emanuel Hall, WR, Missouri

Joe Flacco and first time NFL offensive coordinator Rich Scangarello must get in the same page quickly in Denver. There’s no better way to make that happen than to get more weapons in place for the passing game. The Broncos have a solid young boundary receiver in Courtland Sutton. DaeSean Hamilton fits well as a slot receiver, so adding a speedster on the outside would suit Denver well.

Moving on from Emmanuel Sanders to Emanuel Hall would make for a solid, smooth transition in the Denver offense. Like Sanders, Hall is a dominant athlete with great speed. Flacco works well with guys who can blow the top off defenses given the quarterback’s arm strength and Hall can do that.

This will give Flacco a speedster similar to what he had in Baltimore with John Brown in 2018. However, unlike Brown, Hall has great length to go with his speed. Hall is 6-2 with a slim 200-pound build with a great burst off the line of scrimmage.

On underneath routes, he’s a valued option because of his elite quickness and speed. Against off coverage, Hall devours the cushion. Deep routes are his specialty and should make Denver’s offense dynamic.

Receiver isn’t an immediate need for the Broncos, but someone like Hall makes a ton of sense for Flacco as a potential Day 2 (or later) selection.
