He is not the fastest player in the draft, but he possesses excellent acceleration and showcases his elusiveness and ability to create after the catch consistently on tape. On top of that, he is an excellent route runner and can separate quickly due to his burst and acceleration.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1teeyfa8 ls9zuh1\">Concepcion offers immediate burst and separation into space. He\u2019s elusive in beating press and getting into breaks with minimum damage from handsy coverage. While he has a one-speed approach, he can snap off routes with alarming suddenness, making him extremely difficult to match at leveraged break points. He\u2019s instinctive against zone. He\u2019s also a nightmare for man coverage on choice routes and near the goal line. He\u2019s quicker than fast, with more value on utility throws utilizing run after catch. Concepcion\u2019s ability to quickly uncover should be very appealing to teams with spotty protection and a young quarterback.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Wide receiver is an area many Broncos fans want the team to address this offseason, and Concepcion will be one of the top options in the draft for them. If drafted, he would join Marvin Mims Jr, Troy Franklin, and Pat Bryant as receivers vying for the number two receiver role behind veteran Courtland Sutton.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">I do believe Concepcion\u2019s skill set fits what the Broncos like to do. He can get open quickly, and he is best utilized in space and in the quick-passing game. Those are two things that the Broncos love to utilize. On top of all that, he\u2019s an excellent route runner who can separate quickly, which bodes well for him to have success in the NFL rather quickly.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">At the end of the day, the Broncos need to continue to surround quarterback Bo Nix with weapons, and Concepcion is one of the better playmakers in the draft. We\u2019ll see if the Broncos do anything at the wide receiver position this offseason and if they would consider drafting Concepcion with their 30th overall selection in the first round of the NFL Draft.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"According to the Denver Posts Luca Evans, the Denver Broncos held a formal interview with Texas A&amp;M wide&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":782767,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[1151,7,49,48],"class_list":{"0":"post-782766","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-ncaa-football","8":"tag-denver-broncos-news","9":"tag-football","10":"tag-ncaa","11":"tag-ncaa-football"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/116149758513727144","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/782766","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=782766"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/782766\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/782767"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=782766"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=782766"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=782766"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
