Marvin Mims was the first draft pick of the Sean Payton era in Denver. Mims was selected at the conclusion of the second round by the Broncos. Mims has a ton of potential to have an explosive career in Denver, playing for future Hall of Fame coach Sean Payton and catching passes from future Hall of Fame quarterback Russell Wilson.

Mims will see early playing time on offense and special teams. His explosive deep play ability will make Russell Wilson like him early on. Mims will line up opposite current Broncos wide receiver Jerry Jeudy, and they will be one of the faster receiver units in the AFC. I see Mims getting a lot of early playing time and contributing at a high level early in his professional career.
