00:00Let's go to the Broncos here. Denver surprised everybody. Joe, you're saying running back tight

00:04end and back safety. So where should we start? Yeah, look, great corner, all-world corner.

00:11They've got some edge rushers there. Safety is a spot they could tighten up too. So they're going

00:15to look for that in the draft. I think that's probably what they're going to be drafting first

00:18and foremost. You will see them at some point in the second or third round, I think look for

00:22running back because Javante Williams just hasn't really worked out. Jaleel McLaughlin, I don't

00:26think is that dude necessarily. So you're going to be looking for a three down back or somebody

00:31that's really shifty. Will they move up for a guy like Gente? Probably not. I don't think

00:36Sean Payton will do that necessarily. We'll see. The Broncos are always in a tough spot every year

00:41too. But this is when you're looking at it, you know, you know, the Chiefs big run here again,

00:49they got a lot of competition with the Chargers. They got a lot of competition with the Broncos.

00:52This division is going to be really tough next year, especially if Kelsey does retire and

00:56depending on what kind of offseason they have. So keep a close eye on how tight this AFC West is

01:00going to be. But the good news is you've got the coach, you've got the quarterback. So I expect

01:04the Broncos to be back right in that playoff hunt next year. You got to address running back. You

01:09got to address safety and maybe even look at a tight end to maybe even look at the free agent

01:14pool. See if there's somebody could pick up to improve that because a young quarterback always

01:18likes to have that tight end safety blanket. It goes a long way. I think that'd be very

01:22helpful for Bo Nix in year two.
