SUMMARY
The Broncos were awful defensively last season and didn't do a whole lot during the offseason to upgrade this unit. Changes were made, but Denver didn't really make a splash in free agency or the draft to see significant changes defensively. The Broncos couldn't stop the run or pass last season, ranking 27th overall defensively. Brian Dawkins is an upgrade at safety. And a healthy Champ Bailey remains a shutdown corner. But besides those two, the Broncos lack a lot in the secondary. And D.J. Williams is one of the few playmakers at linebacker. The Broncos need a lot of players to make big strides if this unit hopes to see much of an improvement defensively. Eddie Royal handled most of the return duties last season and did a very good job, but could see his role diminish a little with J.J. Arrington in the mix. Either way, the Broncos return game should be a strength.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
You might want to avoid this unit. The Broncos are going to allow a lot of points and yards. And their sack potential is low. They might get a few turnovers if Bailey can stay healthy, but nothing is certain there.
