Jerry Jeudy landing spots: 3 NFL teams who could meet Broncos' asking price
The Denver Broncos will continue to look to revamp their roster this season, with Jerry Jeudy being the latest name to get tossed around in trade speculation. Jeudy has been a solid contributor for the Broncos, but the team needs to look into recouping some of the assets they've sent out for Russell Wilson and Sean Payton.
The team is reportedly asking for at least one first-round pick, which is a pretty steep price. Nevertheless, if Denver is serious, there are teams who should absolutely look into trading for Jeudy. Which teams could match the price and are in need of a playmaker like Jerry Jeudy?
Three teams the Broncos might be able to trade Jerry Jeudy to
3) Kansas City Chiefs
Intra-division trades are rare, but this could be one that works out well. The Chiefs hold the 31st pick in the first round thanks to the Miami Dolphins losing theirs. Is a prospect at that spot worth more than Jerry Jeudy? Probably not, especially with how bad the Chiefs need a wide receiver.
They won it all with and Patrick Mahomes won MVP with guys like Kadarius Toney and JuJu Smith-Schuster, but why not make it easier on the offense? Mahomes clearly doesn't need all that much help, but why not load up that already unstoppable offense?
This trade would make the Chiefs the easy favorite to repeat.
2) Buffalo Bills
The Buffalo Bills need a wide receiver, and there is arguably none better on the available market than Jerry Jeudy. Free agent options wouldn't require a first-round pick, but the 27th overall pick would be used on someone the Bills might hope turns out to be as good as the Broncos wide receiver.
The Bills desperately need someone reliable behind Stefon Diggs, which could make this pairing a perfect combination.
1) Dallas Cowboys
The Dallas Cowboys currently pick 26th in the draft, but they desperately need a second wide receiver to pair with CeeDee Lamb. They're still interested in Odell Beckham Jr., but Jeudy isn't an injury concern and currently has a cheaper contract that Beckham might not. Jeudy will cost the assets, but he's much safer than Beckham.
The 26th pick is valuable, but Jeudy was a high first-round draft pick and he's been good. It would be worth it for the Cowboys to at least consider if there's a prospect they want more than Jeudy with that pick.
