Sean Payton told Kay Adams that the Broncos need "a joker ... they have to be elite receivers that can play tight end or running back." Good luck, coach! The best tight end that will hit free agency is probably Tyler Conklin, while the easiest third-down back to forecast into a Darren Sproles role in free agency is likely Kenneth Gainwell. The Broncos probably will have to scour trades and the draft to dig up a player like, as Payton forecasted in his "joker" explanation, Reggie Bush or Jimmy Graham. Payton also said that the Broncos are "stronger [at receiver] than some would think," explaining that he considered a veteran receiver a "need" rather than a "must-have" for the team.
