Broncos will be “measured” during NFL free agency, but they’ve already signed Garett Bolles, Quinn Meinerz, Jonathon Cooper and Pat Surtain.

When it comes to the Denver Broncos' need for offensive playmakers, tight end stands out. The Broncos don't have a tight end who can do enough on the field to elevate the offense. Nate Adkins has become a good blocker but looks more like a tight end/fullback hybrid type.

Three years ago, the Denver Broncos signed defensive lineman D.J. Jones to a three-year, $30 million contract. Jones lived up to that contract, starting 48 of a possible 51 games over the last three seasons.
