Let alone a significant move. There was bewilderment. The Broncos brought back a lot (most) of the players from last year’s team, but no outside moves.
Then the trade with the Miami Dolphins for Jaylen Waddle was announced, and all was right with the world. This move was one of the biggest and boldest moves of the offseason. The addition of one of the best receivers in the NFL to the Broncos’ offense makes that unit and the team better.
It’s the exact kind of move just about everyone expected Denver to make … even if it was a few weeks in the making. “He’s one of the more explosive players in the NFL. ” GM George Paton on the trade for Jaylen Waddle and the upcoming #BroncosDraft : pic.
