The Denver Broncos may have a numbers crunch at the TE position this season. The position may be de-emphasized this year with the 3WR set being their base formation. If the Broncos keep only three TEs this year then Virgil Green could be the odd man out. Undrafted rookie Lucas Reed (New Mexico) could be bound for the practice squad.

Our View: The Broncos have given Julius Thomas a lot of reps with the first-team this offseason as Joel Dreesen recovers from a minor knee scope. Jacob Tamme should be the team’s starter but we could see Thomas get a few snaps to create mismatches. Dreesen is the best blocker at the position and a quality red zone target. Green has improved his game as a pro but may be on the way out if the Broncos only keep three TEs.
