I don't believe I answered this one for you, referring to Jeudy.
Simply put, I think when you look at the 2022 Broncos and the 2021 Broncos - they are a better team. The coaching staff (while young) is better than what they had... yes, Fangio's presence on defense will be missed, but the defense will not all of a sudden just suck.
- Offensively, the QB is an obvious upgrade.
- The RB tandem knows what they did in 2021 and they will continue to improve.
- The WRs/TE group... only lost Fant really.
- If they can stay healthy, it will be the first time they have all been available to play together. Sutton, Patrick, Jeudy, Hamler can be a top 10 WR group easily.
- TE group - Albert O and Greg Dulcich (rookie) provide nice options.
The OL group - I'll let others judge them, I've never been a great evaluator of talent with the big uglies.
Defensively, they lost Miller during the season and no longer have Shelby. Ok, but they've made some interesting moves during the offseason and in the draft, so we will see how that goes.
I look at the things above and the new coaches and I'll this team every week over what they rolled out in 2021.
Regarding Jeudy - which is what started this whole thing... health with the WRs has been the main issue. Sutton missed all of the season when Jeudy and Hamler were rookies. Last year, Jeudy missed 6 straight games.
I believe this new offensive coaching staff will understand how to maximize this offense. Feel free to shoot holes in all of that.
