The Denver Broncos selected Penn State wide receiver K.J. Hamler in the second round of the 2020 NFL Draft on Friday evening, one day after selecting Alabama wide receiver Jerry Jeudy in the first round.
Broncos second-year quarterback Drew Lock is clearly excited about the weapons general manager John Elway has been adding on offense.

Lock will now have a Pro Bowl receiver in Courtland Sutton joined by Jeudy and Hamler as well as a promising tight end in Noah Fant. Denver’s offense also has two Pro Bowl running backs: Melvin Gordon and Phillip Lindsay.
Gordon was pretty happy about the Hamler pick, too.

The Broncos have three picks remaining (Nos. 77, 83, 95) to use on Day 2 of the draft. After surrounding Lock with playmakers, Elway might use some of those picks to shore up the offensive line and patch some holes on defense.
