One area of need that the Broncos have going into this offseason is at the off the linebacker position. They do have two solid players in Josey Jewell and Alexander Johnson already on the roster, but neither of them are known for their athleticism or coverage ability. So adding a player who can fill that role and potentially take over as a full-time starter in the Broncos defense.
The Broncos showed their desire at adding a linebacker with these traits by nearly trading up back into the first-round of the 2020 draft to select LSU’s Patrick Queen.
