Broncos trade rumors could deal 2 WRs after bringing in Jaylen Waddle

The Denver Broncos have created quite the wide receiver room after trading for Jaylen Waddle from the Miami Dolphins on Tuesday.

That might just start trade rumors on the Broncos side of things. They might have too many WRs for their own good.

Courtland Sutton doesn't seem likely to go anywhere. He's the perfect complement to Waddle.

Pat Bryant is entering just his second NFL season and seems logical to keep.

But what about Troy Franklin and Marvin Mims? Those are the guys who ESPN's Ben Solak is keeping an eye on.

"The Broncos now have Jaylen Waddle, Marvin Mims, and Troy Franklin," Solak wrote on X on Tuesday. "With Courtland Sutton and Pat Bryant in hand, gotta imagine they'll hear trade calls on Mims and Franklin."

While Mims is far from the same player as Waddle, they have the most overlap as far as combination of being slightly smaller and very quick.

The thing Mims still has going for him is his utility on special teams and gadget plays.

Franklin might be the most obvious odd man out. His skillset simply overlaps too much with other guys on the depth chart who are less likely to be moved.

Quarterback Bo Nix does have a connection dating back to their college days at Oregon with Franklin, so maybe that'd be enough to save him.

Somehow, though, this is an impressive group of five wide receivers. And whenever there's an arrangement like this in the NFL, a trade often follows.
