Orange and Blue Today

Our Orange & Blue Today position previews roll on — and today we dive into the Broncos wide receiver room, a group that suddenly looks like one of the most explosive in the AFC. The headline is obvious: Jaylen Waddle is here to take over. He’s the superstar WR1 Denver has been missing for years — the field‑tilter, the coverage‑dictator, the player who changes the geometry of the offense. Everything this passing game does flows through him. But that doesn’t mean Courtland Sutton is fading. In fact, Sutton might now be the league’s best No. 2 receiver — or more accurately, Denver’s 1A. He’s still a dominant red‑zone threat, still a chain‑mover, still a physical presence on the outside. Waddle elevates him, not replaces him. Then there’s the youth movement. Troy Franklin is developing quickly — smoother routes, better timing, more confidence. Pat Bryant brings size, toughness, and a contested‑catch profile that complements the room perfectly. Both players are pushing for real roles behind the top two stars. This WR room is deep, dangerous, and perfectly built for Bo Nix’s Year Three jump. 🔥 In this episode: Why Waddle is the superstar WR1 Denver needed to get over the top How Sutton thrives as the NFL’s best No. 2 — or Denver’s 1A What Franklin’s development means for the rotation Why Pat Bryant’s size and physicality matter in this offense How the WR room shapes Bo Nix’s 2026 ceiling Drop your take — is this the best WR room Denver has had since the Demaryius & Emmanuel era.

We kick off Orange & Blue Today’s position previews with the group that quietly drives the entire defense: the Broncos defensive line. And the headline is obvious — Zach Allen is playing like the best defensive tackle in football. His 2025 season was elite in every category: disruption, consistency, leadership, and versatility. So what does his encore look like. Can he push even further, or does his impact come from elevating everyone around him. The big question for 2026: How do the Broncos replace John Franklin‑Meyers. JFM was a tone‑setter, a power player, and a reliable pocket‑crusher. Without him, Denver needs a new interior bully — and that’s where rookie Tyler Onyedim enters the conversation. His power, leverage, and inside quickness give him a real chance to step into meaningful snaps early. And don’t forget SaVion Jones. The second‑year defender has flashed improved strength and hand usage, and he’s in the mix to take a big developmental jump. If he hits, Denver suddenly has a young, deep, ascending defensive line behind Allen. 🔥 In this episode: What Zach Allen’s “best DT in the league” encore could look like How Denver replaces John Franklin‑Meyers’ physical presence Why Tyler Onyedim could be the surprise rookie contributor up front Whether SaVion Jones is ready for a Year‑2 leap How the DL sets the tone for Vance Joseph’s turnover‑focused defense Drop your take — which young DL steps up next to Allen in 2026.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Andrew Mason and Cecil Lammey dive into ESPN’s Mike Clay projections for Broncos QB Bo Nix — now entering Year Three, not Year Two — and whether his production is set for a steady climb or a full‑on statistical eruption thanks to the arrival of superstar WR Jaylen Waddle. Clay’s model shows Nix trending upward again, but the big question is how much Waddle changes the math. Does Waddle’s elite separation and YAC ability push Nix past 4,000 passing yards. Does the improved spacing and tempo in Davis Webb’s offense help Nix crack 30 passing touchdowns for the first time in his career. Mase and Cecil break down what Clay projects, what Nix’s Year Three trajectory typically looks like for young quarterbacks, and how the structure of the offense could unlock either a controlled progression — or a true breakout season. 🔥 In this episode: What Mike Clay’s model says about Nix’s Year Three outlook Whether Waddle’s arrival triggers a statistical explosion If Nix can realistically hit 4,000 yards and 30+ TDs How Webb’s offense boosts efficiency, rhythm, and red‑zone production Why Year Three is often the defining season for young QBs Drop your take — is Nix headed for a steady Year Three climb, or a Waddle‑powered breakout.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Andrew Mason and Cecil Lammey break down Mike Clay’s projections for the Broncos’ pass rushers — not just the EDGE group, but the entire front: EDGE, defensive ends, and defensive tackles. After Denver set a franchise record for sacks in 2025, the big question is simple: Can they do it again, or does this defense evolve in a different direction. The fellas dive into how Clay sees sack production shaking out across the roster, including what the numbers say about Jonah Elliss, Baron Browning, Nik Bonitto, Zach Allen, and the interior group. If the sack total dips — which is normal after a record‑setting season — what does that mean for the defense as a whole. That’s where Vance Joseph’s turnover emphasis comes in. More strip attempts. More ball disruption. More chaos. Even if the sack number drops, could the Broncos actually become more dangerous by generating more strip‑sack‑fumbles and takeaways. 🔥 In this episode: How Clay projects sack production across EDGE, DE, and DT Whether Denver can realistically repeat its 2025 sack record What a dip in sacks would mean for VJ’s defense Why strip‑sack‑fumbles could rise even if total sacks fall Which pass rushers are poised to outperform projections Drop your take — is this defense built to chase sacks again, or built to chase turnovers in 2026.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Andrew Mason and Cecil Lammey break down Mike Clay’s projections for the Broncos’ wide receiver room — and what they tell us about Bo Nix, Jaylen Waddle, Courtland Sutton, and the rest of Denver’s passing attack in 2026. The big question: Does Bo Nix go over 4,000 yards passing — and if he does, what does that mean for Jaylen Waddle and Courtland Sutton. Clay’s numbers suggest both could push for 1,000 yards, with Waddle as the clear WR1 and Sutton operating as a “1A” who still dominates in the red zone. But does Waddle’s arrival change Sutton’s touchdown profile. Does Sutton still get the end‑zone love, or does Waddle’s speed and spacing shift the math. And if the top two receivers command so much volume, what does that mean for Troy Franklin, Pat Bryant, and Marvin Mims. Clay’s projections paint a clear picture of hierarchy, usage, and opportunity — and the fellas break down exactly what it means for the Broncos’ offense. 🔥 In this episode: Does Bo Nix hit 4,000 yards — and what that unlocks for the WR room Why Waddle is the WR1 and Sutton is the “1A” with red‑zone upside Whether Denver can realistically have two 1,000‑yard receivers How Waddle’s presence affects Sutton’s touchdown projection What Clay’s numbers say about Franklin, Bryant, and Mims’ roles Drop your take — can Nix support two 1,000‑yard WRs in 2026, or does the volume spread out too much.

On Monday’s Orange & Blue Today, Andrew Mason and Cecil Lammey break down what the Broncos defense showed us all offseason now that mandatory minicamp is in the books — and the themes were loud, consistent, and encouraging. The headline: Jonah Elliss was fantastic from the first OTA to the final minicamp rep. His burst, leverage, and nonstop motor weren’t one‑off flashes — they were a pattern. He looks like a real contributor in Year 1. But the bigger question for Vance Joseph’s unit is simple: Can this defense generate more turnovers. That’s been the emphasis all spring — more ball disruption, more strip attempts, more chaos. And with added speed at EDGE and ILB, the pieces are in place. Speaking of ILB — the Broncos might’ve found a draft‑weekend steal. Red Murdock showed instincts, range, and processing that jumped off the field. He’s already pushing for a role. This defense was already one of the league’s best. The offseason program showed signs it can get even better. 🔥 In this episode: Why Jonah Elliss was one of the biggest defensive winners of the offseason How VJ’s turnover emphasis showed up in practice Why Red Murdock looks like a sneaky draft steal Which defensive trends carried from OTAs into minicamp What this unit needs to sharpen before training camp Drop your take — which defender made the strongest impression heading into late July.

With mandatory minicamp wrapped and the offseason program officially in the books, Andrew Mason and Cecil Lammey break down what we truly learned about the Broncos offense — not the hype, not the guesses, but the consistent themes that showed up every single practice. The headline is obvious: Jaylen Waddle is that dude. Every session reinforced the same truth — he’s the centerpiece of the offense, the tone‑setter, the player defenses already have to account for. His speed, separation, and energy changed the feel of every rep. But he wasn’t alone. Jonah Coleman dazzled all spring with burst, balance, and natural instincts that make him look like a future RB1. Evan Engram looked more involved than ever, moving all over the formation and becoming a clear matchup piece in Davis Webb’s offense. And speaking of Webb — the offense itself looks different. More motion. More spacing. More rhythm. More opportunities for playmakers to get the ball on the move. 🔥 In this episode: Why Jaylen Waddle was the most consistent star of the entire offseason How Jonah Coleman proved he’s ready for a real role right away Why Evan Engram looks like a featured weapon, not a complementary one What Davis Webb’s offense actually looks like after a full spring install How these themes set the tone for training camp in late July Drop your take — which offensive storyline from the spring matters most heading into camp.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Andrew Mason and Cecil Lammey break down the biggest storyline from Wednesday’s mandatory minicamp: Bo Nix is stacking practices — and his work in 7‑on‑7 shows he’s on track for a full return at training camp. For the first time this offseason, Nix got extended reps in front of the media, and Mase saw several encouraging signs that point to real progress. His movement, his timing, and the way the ball came out all looked sharper than they did earlier in the spring. The confidence is returning, and so is the rhythm in Davis Webb’s offense. Mase also breaks down how Nix handled reads, how he synced up with receivers, and why his chemistry with Jaylen Waddle continues to grow. Nothing forced. Nothing hesitant. Just clean, efficient quarterbacking — exactly what you want to see in mid‑June. 🔥 In this episode: What Mase saw from Nix in 7‑on‑7 that signals real progress Why Nix looks on schedule — or ahead — for training camp How his timing and footwork have improved since early OTAs What the growing Nix–Waddle connection looked like today How the offense is settling into Webb’s structure and tempo Drop your take — did Nix look like a QB easing back in, or a QB ready to roll in late July.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Andrew Mason and Cecil Lammey break down our first real look at Bo Nix in front of the media this offseason as the Broncos opened mandatory minicamp — and the early signs were encouraging. Nix finally got live reps we could watch, and the fellas dive into how he moved, how the ball came out, and how comfortable he looked operating Davis Webb’s version of the offense. The timing, the rhythm, the footwork — all on display for the first time since his ankle procedure. And of course, the big storyline: What does Nix think of new superstar WR Jaylen Waddle — and how did their chemistry look on the field. From spacing to timing to trust throws, the early connection is already taking shape. Plus, how the offense itself looks different under Davis Webb — tempo, formations, motion, and how the structure is shifting to maximize Nix’s strengths. 🔥 In this episode: How Bo Nix looked in his first minicamp action in front of media What Nix said about working with Jaylen Waddle How the Nix–Waddle connection is already forming What’s new in Davis Webb’s offense — and what stood out today Why this minicamp matters for setting the tone before training camp Drop your take — did Nix look like a QB ready to take the next step in 2026.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Andrew Mason and Cecil Lammey lay out exactly what the Broncos must show at mandatory minicamp now that OTAs are in the books and the team enters its final work before the long summer break. The headline going into minicamp: the OTA stars — Jonah Elliss, Que Robinson, Evan Engram, Jonah Coleman, and Jaylen Waddle — have all flashed in big ways. Now the question becomes: Can they stack those performances when the tempo rises, the installs deepen, and the entire roster is required to be on the field. Mase and Cecil break down what needs to continue, what needs to improve, and which players have the most to gain — or lose — in this final week before the team disappears until late July’s training camp. 🔥 In this episode: Which OTA standouts must prove it again at mandatory minicamp Why Jonah Elliss and Que Robinson are must‑watch every rep How Evan Engram and Jaylen Waddle reshape the offense’s identity What Jonah Coleman needs to show to keep his momentum rolling The key position battles that could shift before training camp Drop your take — who’s the one player you need to see shine before the team breaks until late July.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Andrew Mason and Cecil Lammey break down the biggest defensive takeaways from Week 2 of Broncos OTAs — a practice where the defense once again showed juice, depth, and emerging storylines all over the field. The headline: Jonah Elliss backed up his strong Week 1 with another disruptive day. His burst, leverage, and ability to win early in the rep are becoming a theme, not a fluke. The rookie looks like he belongs in the rotation already. Then there’s Dondrea Tillman, who continues to flash versatility and play strength. With another year in the system, he looks poised to take on a bigger role — whether as a rotational piece or a matchup‑specific weapon. The fellas also dive into the defensive backfield, where roles, rotations, and competition remain wide open. From the nickel battle to the depth behind Pat Surtain and Riley Moss, Week 2 gave us new clues about who’s rising and who still has work to do. 🔥 In this episode: How Jonah Elliss followed up his breakout Week 1 performance Why Dondrea Tillman looks ready for a bigger 2026 role What we learned about the DB rotation and competition Which defenders are stacking good days — and why it matters The overall tone and energy of the defense in Week 2 Drop your take — which defender made the strongest impression in Week 2 of OTAs.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Andrew Mason and Cecil Lammey break down everything we learned from OTAs — including our first full media session with new offensive coordinator Davis Webb. Webb finally stepped to the podium, and the early signs of his influence on the offense are already showing. The fellas dig into how the scheme looks different with Webb calling plays, what his voice sounds like inside the building, and how his offseason has changed now that he’s running the show. From tempo to spacing to QB communication, the Webb fingerprints are becoming clearer. Then came the bombshell: Sean Payton receives a five‑year contract extension, locking him and GM George Payton in place through 2030. That kind of long‑term cohesion is rare — and powerful. Mase and Cecil break down how stability at the top shapes roster building, offensive identity, and the development of Bo Nix under a unified vision. 🔥 In this episode: What Davis Webb revealed in his first media session as OC How the offense is already shifting under Webb’s leadership Why Sean Payton’s five‑year extension matters for the franchise How long‑term alignment with George Payton impacts roster building What today’s practice told us about the offense’s direction Drop your take — is the Webb‑Payton partnership the spark this offense needed heading into 2026.

On Wednesday’s Orange & Blue Today, Andrew Mason and Cecil Lammey lay out the three biggest things to watch as the Broncos enter Week 2 of OTAs — with the media getting full access to Thursday’s practice and coordinator availability. First, it’s all about the repeat performances. Last week’s standouts — Jonah Coleman, Sam Ehlinger, and Jonah Elliss — turned heads early. Now the question becomes: can they stack days and prove last week wasn’t a flash. Second, Vance Joseph speaks for the first time this OTA cycle. The fellas dig into what he needs to say about creating more takeaways, how the defense plans to improve turnover production, and which players could drive that change. And third, it’s our first time talking to Davis Webb as the official offensive coordinator. How has his offseason changed with the promotion. What does his voice sound like now that he’s running the show. And what clues will he give about the 2026 offense. 🔥 In this episode: Which OTA standouts can repeat their strong Week 1 performances What Vance Joseph reveals about boosting takeaways in 2026 Our first look at Davis Webb as OC — tone, vision, and leadership Which players and position groups matter most this week Why Week 2 of OTAs always separates hype from reality Drop your take — what’s your No. 1 storyline heading into Thursday’s practice?

On Tuesday’s Orange & Blue Today, Andrew Mason and Cecil Lammey break down the latest DenverSports.com piece on Sean Payton and his plan for the Broncos to buck the NFL trend of teams that rack up 10+ one‑score wins… then crash back to earth the following season. Last year, the Broncos were elite in tight games, thriving in late‑game situations and finishing drives when it mattered most. But history says that kind of success is almost impossible to sustain. So the question becomes: Can Denver maintain that edge in 2026 — or is regression inevitable. Mase and Cecil dig into Payton’s philosophy, why he believes the Broncos are built differently, and how roster continuity, situational coaching, and Bo Nix’s growth factor into the equation. Is this team wired to win close games again, or do they need to dominate more convincingly to stay atop the AFC. 🔥 In this episode: Why teams with 10+ one‑score wins usually fall off How Payton thinks the Broncos can break that trend What close‑game success says about coaching and QB play Why 2026 might be different from the historical data What Denver must improve to avoid regression Drop your take — can the Broncos keep winning the tight ones, or will the math catch up to them.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Andrew Mason and Cecil Lammey break down the news that Caleb Lohner will miss the next two weeks of minicamp and OTAs after a routine lower‑body cleanup — and what it really means for the Broncos’ tight end room. Lohner is expected to be fully ready for training camp, but missing valuable reps in June matters when you’re a second‑year player fighting for a roster spot. How much does this setback hurt his chances of making the 53. Does this open the door for Justin Joly to grab more work. Does Adam Trautman tighten his grip on the TE1/TE2 rotation. And is this the moment for a sleeper like Caleb Lohner’s competition to flash. Mase and Cecil break down the depth chart, the opportunity cost, and why Lohner’s development timeline now becomes one of the most important storylines of training camp. 🔥 In this episode: Why Lohner’s absence matters more than fans think How the TE depth chart shifts over the next two weeks Who benefits most from Lohner missing reps Whether this impacts his 53‑man roster odds What Lohner must show when he returns for training camp Drop your take — is this just a minor bump, or a real opening for someone else in the TE room.

On Friday’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey breaks down the biggest defensive observations from Broncos OTAs — and the early signs point to a unit with speed, swagger, and a couple of young players making real noise. Riley Moss had one of the best days on the field, showing sticky coverage, confidence, and the kind of anticipation that screams “Year‑3 leap.” If he keeps stacking days like this, the Broncos’ cornerback room gets a whole lot more dangerous. Red Murdock continues to play exactly how he was scouted — fast, urgent, and never slowing down. The seventh‑round pick looks like he’s trying to win a job on every rep, and coaches are noticing. But the biggest question remains: who steps up to replace JFM. With Jonathan Franklin‑Myers gone, the Broncos need a new tone‑setter up front. Is it a committee. Is it a young player flashing early. Or does a veteran rise into that role. This is the defensive edition — and there’s plenty to talk about. 🔥 In this episode: How Riley Moss showed real CB2‑level traits at OTAs Why Red Murdock’s nonstop motor is winning over coaches Who’s emerging as the top candidate to replace JFM Which defenders flashed early chemistry and communication What these OTA signs mean for Vance Joseph’s 2026 defense Drop your take in the comments — who impressed YOU most on the defensive side at OTAs.

On tonight’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey breaks down the biggest offensive observations from the Broncos’ first open OTA session — and the early signs are very encouraging. The headline: Jaylen Waddle looks every bit like the superstar Denver traded for. His burst, his separation, his energy — it all jumped off the field. Even without Bo Nix throwing, Waddle’s presence changed the entire vibe of practice. Then there’s JK Dobbins, who Sean Payton called a force multiplier. You could see why: vision, tempo, leadership, and the ability to elevate everyone around him. He looks like the engine of the offense. And yes — Jonah Coleman fits right in with the veterans. The rookie didn’t look overwhelmed for a second. His burst, balance, and willingness to do the dirty work (pass pro, details, effort) stood out immediately. These are the early signs of an offense that could be far more explosive — and far more complete — than last year. 🔥 In this episode: Why Waddle already looks like Denver’s WR1 energy‑changer How Dobbins is setting the tone as Payton’s “force multiplier” Why Jonah Coleman looks like he belongs with the vets What the offense showed under Davis Webb’s early installation Which players flashed chemistry, confidence, and early momentum Drop your take in the comments — who impressed YOU the most from the first OTA look.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey breaks down the three biggest storylines as the Broncos open their first week of OTAs — with Thursday’s media‑open practice giving us our first real look at the 2026 squad. Storyline No. 1: Jaylen Waddle’s debut in a Broncos uniform. How he moves, how he’s used, how quickly he syncs with the offense — Waddle is the headliner, even if Bo Nix isn’t throwing. Storyline No. 2: Bo Nix’s ankle. Is he practicing. Is he limited. Is this actually a big deal. The fellas explain why this storyline is more about curiosity than concern — but it will dominate Thursday’s questions. Storyline No. 3: Which rookies pop early — especially Jonah Coleman, who could look even better with veterans around him. Does he flash burst, vision, or pass‑pro chops that force coaches to take notice. We lay out exactly what to watch for when the media steps onto the field: rotations, usage, chemistry, and who steals the early buzz. 🔥 In this episode: Why Waddle will be the most‑watched player at OTAs What Nix’s ankle status really means for Denver’s offseason Which rookies can stand out immediately (Coleman alert) How the offense looks under Davis Webb’s early installation What Thursday’s open practice will reveal — and what it won’t Drop your take in the comments — what’s YOUR No. 1 storyline heading into OTAs.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey breaks down why the Broncos just handed Pat Surtain a $5 million raise for 2026, plus the chance to earn another $5 million in 2027 if he makes All‑Pro or the Pro Bowl. This wasn’t charity — it was a calculated move with layers. First, this restructure creates cap space, which immediately raises the question: is Denver preparing to add a veteran free agent. Second, it’s a sign of respect toward one of the league’s best corners — and a way to keep Surtain happy while the team prepares for a massive long‑term extension. Third, it’s a bet that Surtain will continue playing at an elite level, giving him a real shot to earn that second $5M bump. So why now. What does it signal. And will Surtain hit those incentives. 🔥 In this episode: Why the Broncos gave Surtain a $5M raise right now How the move frees cap space for a potential veteran addition Whether Surtain can realistically earn another $5M next year What this says about Denver’s long‑term plan at CB How this restructure fits into the team’s championship window Drop your take in the comments — was this a smart cap move, a loyalty play, or both.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey breaks down the question everyone in Broncos Country is asking: how different will Davis Webb call the offense now that he’s taking over full play‑calling duties from Sean Payton. The bones of the system stay the same — but the feel, the tempo, and the philosophy could shift in ways that unlock a new version of Bo Nix. Webb is younger, more aggressive, and more willing to lean into modern spacing concepts. Expect more early‑down passing, more RPO elements, more middle‑of‑the‑field attacks, and a play‑caller who isn’t afraid to let Nix rip it. The offense could become faster, more rhythmic, and more QB‑friendly — without losing Payton’s structure. So how big is the change. Big enough to matter. Subtle enough to stay stable. And potentially the key to taking Denver from a top‑14 offense to a top‑10… or better. 🔥 In this episode: How Davis Webb’s style differs from Sean Payton’s Why the offense could become more aggressive and QB‑centric How Webb’s rhythm‑based approach fits Bo Nix’s strengths What changes in tempo, spacing, and early‑down philosophy Why this shift could elevate Denver’s offensive ceiling in 2026 Drop your take in the comments — how big of a leap do YOU expect from the Broncos offense under Davis Webb.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey breaks down which games on the 2026 Broncos schedule are the most likely losses, based on Mike Clay’s win‑probability projections. Denver is favored or at least even in almost every matchup — but a few games stand out as true danger zones. The Broncos have only three games where they’re below a 50% chance to win: Vs. Rams — 39% At Chiefs — 48% At Chargers — 49% Then come the “coin‑flip but tricky” matchups: At Patriots — 50% At 49ers — 51% Vs Seahawks — 53% At Steelers — 58% We dig into why these specific games are projected as the toughest, what matchups or travel spots create the biggest problems, and whether Denver — a contender — can flip some of these into statement wins. 🔥 In this episode: Why the Rams are Denver’s toughest projected matchup Why Arrowhead remains a near coin‑flip even for a 14‑win team Why the Chargers matchup is sneakier than people think Which “50/50” games could swing the AFC playoff race How Denver can turn projected losses into tone‑setting wins Drop your take in the comments — which game do YOU think is the Broncos’ toughest matchup in 2026.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey digs into a question that hits a little harder after watching the Avalanche get swept in the Western Conference Final: If the Broncos make it back to the AFC Championship… and lose again… how will Broncos Country feel. Denver already lived this once — a 14‑win season, an AFC West title, and a crushing loss one step short of the Super Bowl. The Avs just lived the same script. So what happens if the Broncos run it back, add superstar WR Jaylen Waddle, keep the core intact… and still fall short. Can the Broncos get that far again. Absolutely. But what would cause them to stumble: early‑season gauntlet, Bo Nix plateauing, injuries, defensive regression, or the offense not fully clicking under Davis Webb. And if they fall short, does the fanbase feel pride, frustration, or something in between. This is the emotional reality of a contender — expectations rise, and so does the pressure. 🔥 In this episode: Why the Broncos can return to the AFC Championship What would cause them to fall short despite a “run it back” roster How adding Jaylen Waddle changes expectations — and pressure What Broncos Country’s reaction would be to another near‑miss Why the Avs’ loss puts Denver’s stakes into sharper focus Drop your take in the comments — if the Broncos fall one game short again, how would YOU feel about the season.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey digs into a question that suddenly has real heat in Broncos Country: could Von Miller actually come back to Denver. The future Hall of Famer is nearing the end of his career, but his leadership, pass‑rush savvy, and championship pedigree still carry weight — especially for a young locker room built around Bo Nix. Would bringing back a franchise icon help Nix’s development. Absolutely. Von is a culture‑setter, a tone‑setter, and a mentor who understands what it takes to win big games. But is it the right move for the Broncos. Does he still have enough juice to justify a roster spot. And how would Sean Payton balance nostalgia with the cold reality of roster construction. We break down the fit, the upside, the risk, and the emotional pull of a potential reunion. 🔥 In this episode: Why a Von Miller return is more realistic than people think How Von’s presence could help Bo Nix on and off the field Whether the Broncos should prioritize leadership or youth at EDGE How Sean Payton weighs sentiment vs. production What a Von reunion would mean to Broncos Country Drop your take in the comments — should the Broncos bring Von Miller home for one last ride.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey breaks down the new blood at inside linebacker, where the Broncos added both draft capital and undrafted talent — and the competition behind Justin Strnad and Alex Singleton is suddenly one of the most fascinating battles on the roster. Seventh‑round pick Red Murdock brings instincts, tackling reliability, and special‑teams value that could help him climb the depth chart faster than expected. Priority UDFA Taurean York has the IQ and leadership to make a real push for the 53‑man roster, especially if he shines on teams. Then there’s the wild card: Jonah Elliss. A natural EDGE, he’s been dabbling at ILB — but is that a temporary experiment, or could he take on a bigger‑than‑expected role inside if Vance Joseph wants more speed and disruption in the middle. Could one of these young players — or Elliss — eventually push Alex Singleton for snaps. What’s the long‑term plan for Joseph’s defense, and how does this youth movement fit into it. 🔥 In this episode: How Red Murdock can rise quickly in the ILB room Why Taurean York has a real path to the 53‑man roster Whether Jonah Elliss becomes more than an ILB experiment How the young linebackers fit behind Strnad and Singleton What Vance Joseph’s long‑term vision looks like at ILB Drop your thoughts in the comments — which young linebacker makes the biggest impact for Denver in 2026.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey breaks down why Jonah Coleman might be more than just a fourth‑round steal — he might be a real threat to shake up the Broncos’ backfield sooner than anyone expected. Coleman has the traits of a featured NFL running back, and the question now is simple: can he actually push JK Dobbins for the starting job. Coleman isn’t just insurance for a Dobbins injury. He’s powerful, decisive, and — maybe most importantly — he loves the dirty work, especially pass protection, the one area that usually keeps rookies off the field. If he continues to excel there, he could wedge his way into the rotation immediately, not eventually. Is Coleman a future RB1. Could he be a present‑day problem for defenses. And how quickly can he force Sean Payton’s hand. 🔥 In this episode: Why Jonah Coleman has true featured‑back upside How he could push JK Dobbins for RB1 sooner than expected Why his pass‑pro chops fast‑track his playing time Whether he’s more than just injury insurance How early he can carve out a real role in 2026 Drop your take in the comments — how soon should the Broncos unleash Jonah Coleman as a major part of the offense.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey breaks down the Broncos’ two‑tight‑end draft haul — Justin Joly and Dallen Bentley — and what their arrivals mean for the future of the position in Denver. Joly is the classic F tight end, a modern move piece who can work the middle of the field, uncover quickly, and give Bo Nix a reliable matchup‑beater. But does he have enough long speed to be a true seam‑ripper, or is he more of a chain‑mover with route nuance and body control. Bentley brings the Y‑tight‑end frame, the in‑line power, and the ability to win physically at the catch point. His size and play strength make him an instant red‑zone threat, and his blocking gives him a path to early snaps. Together, they might be the future foundation of the Broncos’ tight end room. 🔥 In this episode: Why Justin Joly profiles as Denver’s long‑term F tight end Whether he has the speed to threaten the seam consistently How Dallen Bentley’s size and strength translate to red‑zone production Why Bentley could become the Broncos’ next true Y tight end How these two rookies could reshape the TE room for years Jump in the comments — which rookie TE do YOU think becomes the Broncos’ long‑term starter.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey spotlights one of the most intriguing second‑year players on the roster: Caleb Lohner. A seventh‑round pick and former college basketball standout, Lohner has quietly become a Sean Payton favorite — and it’s not hard to see why. Lohner brings a nasty streak as a blocker, surprising power at the point of attack, and the kind of competitive edge that jumps off the tape. He’s long, athletic, and plays with real attitude — the opposite of a finesse convert. But with Greg Dulcich, Adam Trautman, and Justin Joly in the room, is he the forgotten man at tight end… or the sleeper who could carve out a real role. We dig into why he’s standing out, how he fits in the rotation, and what his future could look like in Denver’s evolving offense. 🔥 In this episode: Why Caleb Lohner’s blocking edge is turning heads How a former hooper developed real trench toughness Whether he’s being overlooked in a crowded TE room How his athletic profile fits Payton’s long‑term vision What his future role could become in Denver’s offense Jump in the comments — is Caleb Lohner a hidden gem, or just waiting for his chance to break out.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey breaks down the biggest question surrounding fourth‑round pick Cage Kasey: is he a tackle or a guard in Denver’s long‑term plan. The Broncos love his versatility, but rookie minicamp gave us our first real hints — and Andrew Mason saw plenty worth talking about. Mase shares what stood out from Kasey’s first on‑field work: the footwork, the anchor, the movement skills, and the way he handled coaching. Does his game translate better inside, or can he truly hold up on the edge. Then we zoom out to the bigger storyline: the future of left guard. With Ben Powers approaching a contract crossroads, is that where Kasey ultimately lands. Is he the next man up. And how soon could that transition happen. This is one of the most important developmental decisions on the roster — and the Broncos may already be tipping their hand. 🔥 In this episode: What Mase saw from Cage Kasey at rookie minicamp Why Kasey’s traits may point toward guard — or swing tackle How his development ties directly to Ben Powers’ future What the Broncos envision for their long‑term interior OL How soon Kasey could push for a real role Drop your thoughts in the comments — is Cage Kasey the Broncos’ future at guard, tackle, or both.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey breaks down the rookie everyone keeps circling: Tyler Onyedim. Yes, he was a third‑round pick — but the buzz inside Dove Valley is that he might be able to get on the field sooner than people think. His power, leverage, and ability to win inside fit exactly what Vance Joseph wants from his front. How does Onyedim slot in behind Zach Allen, DJ Jones, and Malcolm Roach. Can he carve out a rotational role early, or is this a developmental year with spot duty. And what does his arrival say about the future of the Broncos’ defensive line, especially with veterans nearing contract crossroads. This is one of the most important long‑term position groups on the roster — and Onyedim might be the first piece of the next wave. 🔥 In this episode: How quickly Tyler Onyedim can push for real snaps Where he fits behind Allen, Jones, and Roach Why his skill set could accelerate his timeline What this pick means for Denver’s long‑term D‑line construction Which veterans could feel pressure from the rookie’s rise Drop your take in the comments — how soon should the Broncos unleash Tyler Onyedim in the rotation.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey breaks down the full 2026 Broncos schedule, now officially released — and there’s plenty to unpack. Denver opens the year in prime time, but the real story is how the rest of the slate shapes their path back to the postseason. When does Denver get its bye week, and does the timing help a roster built for a deep run. How are the AFC West games distributed — front‑loaded, back‑loaded, or scattered to maximize drama. And after a 14‑win season in 2025, what does this schedule say about the Broncos’ chances of matching or surpassing that mark. From travel stretches to cold‑weather finishes to divisional landmines, the 2026 schedule gives us our first real look at how Denver’s season could unfold. 🔥 In this episode: Where the Broncos’ bye week lands — and why it matters How the AFC West matchups are spaced throughout the season What this schedule means for Denver’s win‑total expectations Which stretches could define the Broncos’ playoff push Tell us in the comments: how many wins do YOU see on the Broncos’ 2026 schedule.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey breaks down every possible schedule scenario for the Broncos as we wait for Thursday’s full NFL release. We already know the headline: Denver opens the 2026 season on the road against the Kansas City Chiefs on Monday Night Football — a brutal, high‑stakes start. But what about the rest of the path. Do the Broncos want an early bye week to help Bo Nix recover from ankle surgery, or a late bye to fuel a playoff push. How will the league stack the AFC West matchups — front‑loaded, back‑loaded, or spread out. And does Denver finish the year at home in the cold or on the road in a hostile environment with the division on the line. We won’t know the answers until Thursday, but today we speculate, project, and map out the most likely schedule shapes the Broncos could face in 2026. 🔥 In this episode: Early vs. late bye week — what benefits Denver most How the AFC West games might be distributed Whether the Broncos finish the season at home or on the road How the league could build drama around Denver’s 2026 storylines Why Week 1 at Kansas City sets the tone for everything Tell us in the comments: what schedule layout gives the Broncos the best shot to repeat as AFC West champs.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey breaks down the Week 1 showdown already leaked ahead of Thursday’s full schedule release: the Broncos open the 2026 season on Monday Night Football against the Kansas City Chiefs. No soft landing. No easing in. Denver starts the year in a divisional pressure cooker. Facing a division rival in Week 1 can help — because you know their personnel, their tendencies, their coaching DNA — but it can also hurt, because every mistake counts double in the AFC West race. This opener is a tone‑setter, and both teams know it. Then there’s the quarterback spotlight: Bo Nix vs Patrick Mahomes. If Mahomes is fully ready after injury, it becomes one of the biggest QB matchups of the entire opening weekend. If he’s not, Denver has a rare chance to seize early momentum and punch the Chiefs before they stabilize. The Broncos enter 2026 as the defending AFC West champs, but Kansas City is desperate to reclaim the throne. Week 1 isn’t just a game — it’s a statement opportunity. 🔥 In this episode: Why opening with a divisional opponent raises the stakes immediately How MNF amplifies pressure for both Denver and Kansas City Bo Nix vs Patrick Mahomes and the national spotlight What this matchup means for the AFC West power struggle Drop your predictions for Broncos–Chiefs in the comments and tell us what statement Denver needs to make in Week 1.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey and Andrew Mason break down how Red Murdock, the Broncos’ final pick of the 2026 NFL Draft, might end up being far more than “Mr. Irrelevant.” The Buffalo linebacker is a ball‑finder with real tackling juice, and Denver believes they uncovered a legitimate depth piece who can compete right away. The Broncos’ ILB room is stable at the top with Justin Strnad and Alex Singleton, but behind them it’s wide open. Can Murdock carve out a role on special teams — or even push for defensive snaps. What does this mean for Drew Sanders, who has yet to claim a consistent role. And how does Jonah Elliss look as he experiments with inside linebacker reps. Denver needed competition, energy, and developmental upside at ILB. Red Murdock brings all three. 🔥 In this episode: Why Red Murdock was a fantastic late‑round find for Denver How he fits behind Strnad and Singleton in the ILB rotation Whether Murdock can earn rookie snaps — especially on special teams What the team really thinks about Drew Sanders’ future How Jonah Elliss looks with some time at ILB Why the back end of the ILB room is suddenly one of the most intriguing battles A seventh‑round pick with real juice — and a position group that just got a lot more interesting.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey digs into one of the most intriguing storylines of rookie minicamp: are the Broncos quietly auditioning quarterbacks this weekend. Denver is bringing in Nathan Peterman for a tryout — a veteran who knows systems, protections, and can run a practice field — but the real buzz comes from EJ Warner, the son of Hall of Famer Kurt Warner. Warner was just at Chiefs rookie minicamp last week, and now he gets a shot to impress in Denver. He’s smart, tough, experienced, and has logged a ton of college reps. The Broncos need a camp arm, but they also need someone who can help stabilize the room while Bo Nix recovers from ankle surgery. This weekend could determine whether Warner earns a longer look. With Nix sidelined and Jarrett Stidham the only healthy veteran, the Broncos are evaluating every option — and this minicamp suddenly has real stakes for the QB depth chart. 🔥 In this episode: Why the Broncos are bringing in Nathan Peterman for a tryout What EJ Warner can show after visiting the Chiefs last week How Bo Nix’s injury timeline impacts the QB room Whether Denver is looking for a true No. 3 or just a camp arm What this weekend means for the Broncos’ offseason plan at quarterback A rookie minicamp with real quarterback implications — and OBT is all over it.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey and Andrew Mason open up the mailbag and dive into what’s on the minds of Broncos Country right now. Fans want answers — and we’re hitting every major topic. First up: Bo Nix’s ankle. After his planned cleanup procedure, what does the timeline really look like, and how much should fans worry about his offseason availability. Then we tackle the big free‑agent question: could the Broncos add a veteran like Cam Heyward to bolster the defensive front, and what would it take for that to happen. And of course, the spotlight turns to Davis Webb, who steps into the play‑caller role for the first time. How will he handle the responsibility, what changes might fans see, and why his relationship with Nix matters more than ever. 🔥 In this episode: Bo Nix’s ankle update — what the procedure means for OTAs and beyond Could Denver add a veteran free agent like Cam Heyward How Davis Webb will operate as a first‑time play‑caller What fans are most concerned about heading into the summer Cecil and Mase answer the biggest questions from Broncos Country A full‑throttle Q&A episode — honest answers, real insight, and everything Broncos fans are buzzing about.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey and Andrew Mason break down how the 2026 NFL Draft reshaped the Broncos secondary, with a special focus on seventh‑round pick Miles Scott. Denver lost PJ Locke to the Cowboys in free agency — a major blow to their reliable depth — and now enters the season with talent at the top but real questions behind Brandon Jones and Talanoa Hufanga. Scott brings range, instincts, and special‑teams toughness, giving him a legitimate shot to make the roster and contribute immediately on teams. But can he carve out defensive snaps as a rookie. And what about JL Skinner, whose development becomes even more important with Locke gone and the depth chart thinning out. The Broncos’ back end has upside, but it also has uncertainty — and this draft class may need to grow up fast. 🔥 In this episode: How seventh‑rounder Miles Scott fits into Denver’s secondary Why losing PJ Locke puts pressure on the young safeties Whether Scott can earn rookie snaps — at least on special teams Where JL Skinner stands entering a pivotal year Why the Broncos’ safety depth is talented… but unproven A draft pick, a departure, and a secondary with something to prove — OBT breaks it all down.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey and Andrew Mason break down why the Broncos could not pass on Kage Casey in the fourth round — even while gambling that Justin Joly would still be on the board later. Kasey was simply too talented, too versatile, and too clean a scheme fit to ignore. Denver sees Casey as a true OL hybrid — a player who can line up at tackle in a pinch but may ultimately project as a powerful, athletic guard in Sean Payton’s system. And that raises the big question: is he the future replacement for Ben Powers. With Powers’ contract structure and age, the writing might already be on the wall. Casey’s intelligence, anchor, and movement skills give him a real shot to start as early as 2027 — or even sooner if injuries or competition open the door. This pick wasn’t just about depth. It was about succession planning. 🔥 In this episode: Why the Broncos couldn’t pass on Kage Casey at 108 How his versatility shapes his long‑term role — guard or tackle Whether he’s the heir apparent to Ben Powers Why Casey could push for a starting job as early as next season What this pick says about Denver’s evolving offensive line philosophy A forward‑thinking pick with real upside — and OBT breaks down every angle.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey and Andrew Mason break down what the selection of Tyler Onyedim at No. 66 really means for the Broncos’ defensive line — both in 2026 and beyond. Denver didn’t just add depth; they added a violent, explosive, scheme‑perfect disruptor who could force his way into a larger‑than‑expected role as a rookie. Onyedim’s power, leverage, and ability to win inside align perfectly with what Vance Joseph wants from his front. And the pick sends a clear message about the future of the room. DJ Jones is entering the final stretch of his contract, Malcolm Roach is a rotational piece, and Sai’vion Jones is still developing. Onyedim gives Denver a young, cost‑controlled interior presence who could become a foundational starter by 2027 — if not sooner. This wasn’t just a pick. It was a directional statement about where the Broncos want their defensive identity to go. 🔥 In this episode: How Tyler Onyedim upgrades the Broncos’ defensive line immediately Why the rookie could have a bigger role than anyone expected What this selection signals about DJ Jones’ and Malcolm Roach’s futures How Onyedim fits alongside Sai’vion Jones in the long‑term plan Why this pick reflects Denver’s shift toward youth, power, and disruption up front A sneaky‑big pick with major ripple effects — and we’re breaking it all down on OBT.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey and Andrew Mason break down the news that Bo Nix underwent a second ankle procedure — a planned “clean‑up” surgery that was part of his recovery timeline all along. According to multiple reports, this was an anticipated follow‑up during a scheduled recheck with Dr. Norman Waldrop, the same surgeon who repaired the original fracture in January. So why didn’t we hear about it earlier? Because the Broncos treated it as routine, not a setback. Sean Payton even referenced the recheck last week but didn’t disclose the procedure, calling it “nothing to report” — which tracks with how teams typically handle expected follow‑ups. What does it mean for Nix’s offseason? Reports now indicate his participation in OTAs and minicamp could be limited, even though the team had previously suggested he’d be ready. The cleanup slightly adjusts expectations, but there are no long‑term concerns about the ankle. The key: Nix is still expected to be fully ready for the start of training camp, with every major outlet reporting the same timeline. 🔥 In this episode: Why the second ankle procedure happened — and why it was expected Why the Broncos didn’t announce it earlier How it affects Nix’s availability for OTAs and minicamp Why training camp remains the target — and why the team isn’t worried What this means for Denver’s offseason QB plan A minor procedure, a predictable timeline shift, and no panic inside the building — but plenty to unpack for Broncos Country.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey and Andrew Mason break down the tight end overhaul that just hit Dove Valley. The Broncos didn’t just add one weapon — they added two. Fifth‑round pick Justin Joly brings the speed, fluidity, and route‑running of a modern move tight end, while seventh‑rounder Dallen Bentley arrives as a rugged, developmental in‑line option with real upside. Together, they jam the Broncos’ TE room with youth, versatility, and long‑term potential. Joly is the seam‑stretching threat who can win like a big slot and eventually push to replace Evan Engram. Bentley is the physical complement — a blocker with sneaky athleticism who could carve out a role early in heavy packages. Suddenly, a position that looked thin now looks deep, competitive, and built for Sean Payton’s creativity. 🔥 In this episode: How Justin Joly changes the TE room on Day 1 Why Dallen Bentley is a perfect developmental fit behind Engram How the duo gives Sean Payton true formation flexibility What this means for the offense in 2026 and beyond Who has the inside track to be TE2 by the end of camp Drop your thoughts in the comments — did Denver just fix the tight end room in one draft.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey and Andrew Mason break down the draft‑day ripple effect of the Broncos selecting Washington RB Jonah Coleman in the fourth round. Coleman was Cecil’s favorite back in the entire class — and now that he’s in orange and blue, the question becomes: how does he reshape Denver’s running back room in 2026. Can Coleman push JK Dobbins for the starting job. Is he simply injury insurance for a talented veteran who hasn’t stayed healthy. Or is this the beginning of a true 1‑2 punch with RJ Harvey, giving Sean Payton the most versatile backfield he’s had in Denver. Coleman’s power, balance, and burst bring a new identity to the room, and his arrival forces real competition the moment camp opens. 🔥 In this episode: How Jonah Coleman fits into Denver’s RB rotation immediately Could he challenge JK Dobbins for RB1 in 2026 Is Coleman insurance — or the future centerpiece How he pairs with RJ Harvey as a thunder‑and‑lightning combo What this pick says about Sean Payton’s long‑term backfield vision Drop your thoughts in the comments — is Coleman the Broncos’ next breakout running back.

It’s OBT After Dark, and Cecil Lammey and Andrew Mason are breaking down the entire Denver Broncos draft class with the lights low and the takes hot. Denver walked away with a potential future starting running back in Jonah Coleman at pick 108 — Cecil’s favorite RB in the class — and added a dynamic move tight end in Justin Joly, who could eventually replace Evan Engram in Sean Payton’s offense. But the real fun comes in the margins. Who are the late‑round sleepers that could sneak onto the roster, carve out roles on special teams, or even develop into long‑term contributors. Did George Paton maximize value by trading back, and how does this class fit around Bo Nix as the Broncos build toward 2026. 🔥 In this episode: Why Jonah Coleman could be Denver’s RB1 of the future How Justin Joly fits behind Evan Engram — and why he’s a perfect Payton TE Late‑round sleepers who could surprise in camp Did Paton get enough value by moving back How this draft class supports Bo Nix’s development Drop your thoughts in the comments — who’s your favorite sleeper from Denver’s 2026 draft haul.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey and Andrew Mason break down the Broncos’ biggest draft‑week gamble: moving back out of the second round and selecting Tyler Onyedim with the No. 66 pick near the top of Round 3. Denver passed on staying at 62… and they passed on trading up. So did George Paton make the right move — or did the Broncos miss out on a chance to land a higher‑impact player. Was sliding back the smart play to add capital and still get “their guy,” or should Denver have packaged picks to go get a difference‑maker earlier. And what does this move say about how Sean Payton and Vance Joseph view their defensive front heading into 2026. 🔥 In this episode: Did Denver make the right call trading back from 62 Why Tyler Onyedim was the target at 66 — and what he brings to the defense Should the Broncos have been aggressive and traded UP instead What this move reveals about Paton’s draft philosophy How the decision shapes the rest of Denver’s draft strategy Drop your thoughts in the comments and tell us whether YOU would’ve stayed put, moved up… or made the same move Paton did.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey and Andrew Mason dig into a juicy question: will Broncos GM George Paton throw a curveball in the 2026 NFL Draft. Paton says it’s unlikely Denver moves into the first round — but he also left the door cracked open, and this front office has a history of surprising the league when the moment calls for it. Could the Broncos trade a 2027 pick to add more capital this year. Could they use a player like Riley Moss to maneuver up the board. And with Denver making veteran acquisitions in two of the last three drafts, is another established player about to join Sean Payton’s roster. With limited picks and big needs, a curveball might be exactly what the Broncos throw. 🔥 In this episode: -Will Paton make an unexpected move on draft weekend -Could Denver trade a 2027 pick to add capital now -Is Riley Moss a realistic trade chip to move up -Will the Broncos target another veteran like past years -How a curveball could reshape Denver’s entire draft strategy Drop your thoughts in the comments and tell us what kind of curveball YOU think Paton might unleash.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey and Andrew Mason dive into the biggest question of Denver’s draft week: can the Broncos actually get Notre Dame RB Jadarian Price at pick 62. With no first‑round selection, Denver has to wait until the end of Round 2, but NFL.com’s Chad Reuter has Price falling right into their lap — and that would be a dream scenario for Sean Payton’s offense. Price brings speed, burst, and big‑play juice as a runner, receiver, and even a returner on special teams. He’s the kind of multipurpose weapon who could immediately elevate the Broncos’ explosiveness around Bo Nix. But there’s another name heating up: Eli Stowers, the Vanderbilt tight end some evaluators now call a “perfect fit” for Payton’s system. If Stowers won’t make it to 62, should Denver move up to secure him instead. 🔥 In this episode: Will Jadarian Price really fall to Denver at 62 Why Price’s speed and versatility fit Sean Payton’s offense How he could help as a runner, receiver, and returner Is Eli Stowers worth a trade‑up as the ‘perfect’ TE fit Which player gives Bo Nix the biggest boost in 2026 Drop your thoughts in the comments and tell us who YOU want with Denver’s first pick of the draft.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey and Andrew Mason dive into the Broncos’ NFL Draft Blueprint — and the analytics are screaming one thing loud and clear: Denver must upgrade the tight end position. With no first‑round pick and the pressure mounting to maximize Bo Nix’s development, the Broncos have a pivotal decision to make at pick 62. Do they move up for Vanderbilt’s Eli Stowers, the do‑everything tight end many evaluators now call a “perfect fit” for Sean Payton’s offense. Or do they stay patient and grab Max Klare (Ohio State), a polished, natural receiving tight end who could thrive as a long‑term complement — and eventual successor — to Evan Engram. This draft may not be deep at tight end, but it’s rich in opportunity for the Broncos if they strike at the right moment. The question is whether George Paton plays it aggressive or lets the board come to him. 🔥 In this episode: Analytics say TE is Denver’s biggest draft need Should the Broncos trade up for Eli Stowers Is Max Klare the smarter value play at 62 How a TE upgrade accelerates Bo Nix’s growth What George Paton’s draft strategy must prioritize Drop your thoughts in the comments and tell us which TE YOU want in orange and blue.

On this Friday edition of Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey and Andrew Mason are joined by Mike Tanier of the Too Deep Zone to break down the Broncos, the 2026 NFL Draft, and the future of Bo Nix. Has Nix already climbed into the top‑10 quarterbacks in the NFL — and what does Tanier see on film that supports (or challenges) that idea. The guys also dive into whether Denver should add a tight end like Eli Stowers to give Nix another dynamic weapon, and whether Sean Payton’s decision to ‘run it back’ with players like JK Dobbins will actually work in 2026. With the draft days away, Tanier brings sharp insight, big‑picture context, and a national perspective on where the Broncos truly stand. 🔥 In this episode: Is Bo Nix already a top‑10 QB in the NFL Would Eli Stowers be the perfect TE addition for Nix’s development Did Sean Payton make the right call bringing back JK Dobbins How Denver’s draft strategy aligns with their offensive identity What Mike Tanier sees as the Broncos’ biggest swing opportunity Drop your thoughts in the comments and tell us where YOU rank Bo Nix heading into 2026.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey and Andrew Mason break down Daniel Jeremiah’s thoughts on what the Broncos should do with their first pick at No. 62 overall. With no first‑rounder, Denver has to nail this selection — and Jeremiah’s insight gives us a clearer picture of where the team might lean. Do the Broncos address their need at tight end, potentially grabbing Eli Stowers (Vanderbilt) as a developmental weapon behind Evan Engram. Or does the value at defensive tackle become too good to pass up, especially if a disruptive force like Christen Miller (Georgia) slides to the end of Round 2. This class forces Denver to choose between immediate help and long‑term upside. 🔥 In this episode: -Daniel Jeremiah’s read on Denver’s strategy at pick 62 -Is TE the priority — and is Eli Stowers the ideal developmental fit -Could Christen Miller fall, and would DT trump all other needs -How the class structure shapes Denver’s first‑pick decision -What the Broncos must weigh without a first‑round selection Drop your thoughts in the comments and tell us where YOU want Denver to go with pick 62.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey and Andrew Mason break down the Broncos’ latest pre‑draft visit: Washington RB Jonah Coleman, who met with the team on Monday. Coleman is an all‑purpose back with vision, balance, and receiving chops — but does he bring any rare traits that separate him from the pack. And is he truly the kind of runner Sean Payton wants to add to this backfield. The guys dig into why Coleman could realistically be available in the fourth round, and whether his receiving ability makes him a no‑brainer target if he’s on the board. They also explore what Denver is actually looking for at running back: power, speed, special teams value, or a blend of all three. Coleman checks a lot of boxes — but is he the box‑checker. 🔥 In this episode: -Jonah Coleman’s visit: what it means and why Denver is interested -Does Coleman have any rare, standout traits -Why Round 4 might be the sweet spot to land him -Is his receiving ability the deciding factor -What prototype the Broncos are targeting at RB: power, speed, or return value Drop your thoughts in the comments and tell us whether Coleman should be Denver’s top mid‑round RB target.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey and Andrew Mason dive into Bob McGinn’s anonymous scout intel on the 2026 wide receiver class — and the opinions are strong. This group has talent, but scouts are split on who’s a future star, who’s a role player, and who’s a landmine. The guys break down whether Chris Bell (Louisville) could be one of the best value picks in the draft, with several evaluators believing his injury has pushed him far lower than his true ability. They also dig into the polarizing profile of KC Concepcion (NC State) — is he an ultimate playmaker, or do scouts see a future bust if his game doesn’t translate cleanly to the pros. 🔥 In this episode: What anonymous scouts really think of the 2026 WR class Why Chris Bell could be a massive value coming off injury KC Concepcion: dynamic weapon or risky projection Where the true depth and danger zones are at wide receiver How this intel shapes Denver’s draft approach at the position Drop your thoughts in the comments and tell us which WR you think is the biggest boom‑or‑bust prospect in this class.
