Coleman has clear path to lead role with contingent upside in three-headed Broncos backfield.

Jonah ColemanDEN

Coleman backs up both running back and pass-catching roles in Denver's three-headed backfield; he proved in college he can play as a three-down guy and can also be a bruiser with potential goal-line work if Dobbins faces injury concerns. JJ Zachariason views him as a late-round value play (15th-16th round on DraftKings) with multiple contingent upsides: if either Dobbins or Harvey gets hurt, Coleman becomes a 10+ touch-per-game player. Coleman's college receiving totals exceeded RJ Harvey's in each of his last two years, and his adjusted receiving numbers in the ZAP model show him as better than Harvey from a receiving standpoint; he excels at cutbacks and can line up in both run and pass situations, which fits Sean Payton's scheme.
