The Denver Broncos could be a prime target for rebuilding projects.In their current salary cap situation — they’re currently $25.5 million over the salary cap per Spotrac — their best options might be low-risk, high-stakes moves. Bleacher Report’s research department believes a pair of NFC defenders will fit the bill.The first is Carolina Panthers cornerback Jaycee Horn, who was in the same draft class as Broncos cornerback Patrick Surtain II.”Jaycee Horn was selected just one spot ahead of Patrick Surtain II in the 2021 NFL Draft,” B/R’s scouting department wrote on Jan. 29. – Since then, however, their careers have diverged dramatically. Surtain has established himself as a premier talent, while Horn has battled injuries and his future is uncertain as he enters the fourth year of his rookie contract.”The Broncos don’t have the money to make big deals, so targeting struggling players on rookie contracts makes sense.”The 6-foot-1 defensive back missed all but three games during his rookie season with a foot injury. He returned the following season, playing in 13 games and catching three passes while throwing seven others.A calf injury has limited him to six games this season. He did not record any interceptions. However, Horn made five saves.Son of former New Orleans Saints lineman Joe Horn, he also has a strong pedigree.Denver has five more cornerbacks under contract for next season, including Damarri Mathis, who started six games last season and played in all 17, and 2022 third-round pick and special teamer Riley Moss. Horn would give the Broncos another long, lanky corner with ball skills.That includes potential Broncos pick Jerry Jeudy, the 15th pick in 2020. The 4,444 Broncos had the ninth fewest sacks in the league last season. Applying similar logic to Horn, the scouting team has suggested that the New York Giants are passing up slugger Azeez Ojular as a potential trade target.Ojulari, a 23-year-old former 2021 second-round pick, had 8.0 sacks as a rookie. But his production declined in each subsequent season.He totaled 8.0 sacks over the past two seasons.In the final year of a four-year, $6.8 million contract, he too could be a trade candidate. However, the Giants have more than $27 million in cap space, so there shouldn’t be any financial issues preventing them from keeping Ojular in hopes of a rebound..
