Summary

The Broncos started out well defensively but really faded down the stretch. Denver ranked 20th overall (18th against pass, 22nd against run). They had their issues against both the pass and run. The secondary probably is the strength with Champ Bailey remaining a premier cover corner. He'll be joined by Tracy Porter this year, who should improve the coverage in the secondary. The Broncos also have some guys that can get after the quarterback, including Elvis Dumervil and Von Miller. The Broncos had 41 sacks last year, which was above average. They do lack some bulk up front, though, which leads to the team getting pushed around at times when it comes to stopping the run. The special teams aren't too special with Eric Decker and Matt Willis handling the return duties. Both do alright in their roles, but are nothing too special.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
The Broncos have some sack and interception potential, but they won't limit the yards or points too well. Consider them a spot starter in the right matchup. They'll be up and down for fantasy teams.

Denver Broncos LB Keith Brooking (hamstring) and SS Jim Leonhard (knee) are not expected to play in the final two preseason games so the team will have to decide whether they make the final roster without seeing them play in a preseason game.

Denver Broncos LB Keith Brooking (hamstring) is not a lock to make the final roster. Brooking popped his hamstring in his second full practice last week and has yet to return. He also does not appear likely of seeing any time the rest of the preseason.
