FINAL Denver Broncos 53-Man Roster Projection After 2024 NFL Preseason

[Music] the preseason is finally behind us and now we can look forward to real football the regular season on today's video we're going to run through a Broncos 53 man roster projection following three preseason games let me just start by saying thank you Shawn Peyton for playing some if not most of the starters at least in the first quarter of a lot of these preseason games for the rest of the NFL it's been a drag with all starters not playing but at least John Peyton gave us some quality quarter or two here and there but let's jump into it starting with the quarterback room B Knicks Jared stum and Zack Wilson I believe the Broncos would keep all three quarterbacks I don't think they're done with Jared SDM just because he didn't win the quarterback battle and I don't believe they traded for Zack Wilson just to move on from him for five months later when he's looked really good the last two to three weeks so I've got Denver keeping all three quarterbacks you've got a rookie starter I think it's in your best interest to have some good veteran support and a lot of experience in two backups to help get Nicks ready every single week so I'm going to have the Denver Broncos hold all three quarterbacks on their active 53 man roster now speaking of bow Nick how many touchdowns for the rookie in 2024 let's assume he starts all 17 games can he get to 20 touchdowns 20 22 23 let me know how many touchdowns you think number 10's going to throw for in 2024 onto the running backs I've got javante Williams Jalil mlin audri EST and then fback Michael Burton I do not have samaj perine on there I do not have udfa Blake Watson I feel like what we've seen out of Williams and MC Laughlin and the rookie is enough encouraging stuff to believe that's a you know a formidable running back Trio that all have kind of a special talent to themselves like Jalil moff has incredible speed and quickness and Agility estem has got some awesome burst at the uh short yard situations and at the goal line and then javante Williams is your well-rounded back that leans a little bit more into the bowling ball side of things so I think the Broncos keep those three backs along with fullback Michael Burton and the veteran samaj perine is released after a rocky preseason now onto the wide receivers last year they only kept four wide receivers so I've got six but I don't feel like they can move on from any of these six players courland suton Tim Patrick Josh Reynolds Marvin mitts those four players are all locks to make the roster then you've got rookies Devon V and Troy Franklin V has looked better than Troy Franklin so far in training camp in the preseason so I don't see how they keep Franklin over V but also Troy Franklin was a fourth round draft pick of theirs that I don't see them moving on from or at least putting them on the waiver wire for another team to claim and have him risk being snatched by someone else so ultimately I think Denver goes with six wide receivers they'll probably try to get Lil Jordan Humphrey Brandon Johnson and a couple other these veteran guys they've had the last two to three years back on their practice squad and maybe they do a little bit of taxing back and forth between the active roster and the practice squad early on but those are the initial six players I've got on the 53 man tight ends I'm only keeping three Adam tropman Greg dolage and Lucas koll Nate Atkins made the 53 man last year as a udfa I feel like Lucas croll has really impressed Greg doul has been able to stay healthy for the last four weeks knock gone wood and Adam tropman is this team starting tight end so for that reason I think Denver only rolls with three especially with keeping three quarterbacks which I think they're going to do that means another room probably loses a a player or two and in the tight end room that could be Nate Atkins as for the offensive line you've got your five starters Garrett bus Ben Powers Luke Waton ber Quinn Miners and Mike mcclinchy I think Matt P has emerged as the team's best like left tackle or swing tackle uh Cal throck Morton just an all-time name how can you not keep him Alex foresight is your backup center and then Jacobs is going to be your backup right tackle you could twist my arm and put Alex PFI in that spot instead of instead of Jacobs But ultimately I'll go with those nine offensive lineman now before we look at the defense before we look at the defense excuse me uh and who I think Shawn and George Peyton are going to keep on that half of the football let me tell everyone watching about prize picks prize picks is America's number one daily fantasy sports app with over 5 million active members all you do is pick more or less on two to six player staff projections and watch the winnings roll in I'm talking turning $10 into $1,000 with as little as four correct picks now let me give you my selections for NFL week one call me crazy I like the mo on Caleb Williams at 0.5 passing yards got a good feeling about that one uh I also like the less on Isaiah P's rushing yards against a good Ravens defense give me the more on Justin Tucker at one and a half field goals and I like the more on Drake London's receiving yards at 65 a half as he is now Kirk cousins' number one target so if you like my selections download the prize picks app today and use code clns for a first deposit match up to $100 that's code clns on prize picks for a deposit match up to $100 if you like my selections a lot $20 turns into $200 with those four selections so download the app today use prize picks cuz pick more pick less it's that easy at prize picks defensive line Zack Allen DJ Jones John Franklin Myers locks to make the roster along with roach after that it's a little bit up in the air I'm going to keep Matt henningson a day three pick out of Wisconsin not too long ago and then the recently reinstated defensive tackle Yoma wazar out of Iowa State who missed all of 2023 he's impressed so far in training camp so I think he'll find a roster spot I wouldn't be shocked if Denver releases him and then tries to get him through the waiver wire and puts him on the practice squad so they can hold on to a guy like Ang blackon although now that I think about it out loud blackon he's not going to be subject to the waiver wire he's uh played enough Seasons where he's just an outright free agent so a lot of times we saw this with Mike Purcell in the past like the Broncos release a veteran player and just say hey don't go anywhere tomorrow we're going to make some roster moves Place guys on injured reserve open up a roster spot and we'll sign you back after that so I could see that happening with a guy like blackon as for the linebackers Jonathan Cooper Alex Singleton Cody Barton Baron Browning those four are your starters and your locks of course Nick Bonito and Jonah Ellis at outside linebacker Thomas enum continues to impress I feel like he's going to get a 53 man roster spot because if he doesn't I don't know if he'll make it to your practice squad and then a backup inside linebacker I went with Justin strad and Jonas Griffith I could have gone with Bailey he's really good on special teams But ultimately these are the nine guys I selected Drew Sanders will remain on the pup list so he is out for a minimum of four games however he does not count towards your 53 man roster now before we look at um I think the next one up would be cornerbacks here I do want to ask you guys to go ahead and subscribe to the channel if you are not already we're closing in on 25,000 subscribers so Join one of the fastest and one of the largest growing Broncos YouTube communities out there today and get yourself the best free Broncos content all 2024 season long cornerbacks Pat ran Riley Moss jquan McMillan I believe those are your three week one starters I'm going to hold on to Levi Wallace the veteran has been injured for much of Camp maybe they release him and say hey we're going to sign you back to our practice squad tomorrow don't go anywhere deari mattisse could be a surprise CU candidate for sure would not be shocked if he's not on it but for now I'll put him on it and then finally Chris Abrams drain I feel like is going to be your backup slot nickel corner behind McMillan and then finally your safeties Brandon Jones PJ lock those are your two starters I'm going to go with Smith he's been so good this preseason that if the Broncos cut him I don't see a world in which he is not claimed by someone on the waiver wire and there's no way he makes it all the way to Denver's practice squad and then JL Skinner a day three pick out of Boise State last year um I'm going to put him on I'll also keep de and Turner yell on the pup list I don't like not putting Devon key on there but I simply ran out of spots because now we get to numbers 51 52 and 53 on the roster punter Riley Dixon he wins the battle over Trenton Gil will Lutz and then Mitchell Fone foni that's your Long Snapper and that's your 53 man roster so grade the Broncos roster for me scale on a 1 to 100 scale I believe the number one team in Madden this year was the Chiefs and the 49ers at 92 so use that as a point of reference I'll give the Broncos a 80 I think they're in that B minus category they may not have a ton of great depth at some positions but they've got some Firepower for sure so give me an 80 for the Broncos let me know what your grade is or your number down below in the comment section all right that's going to do it for us on today's episode thank you guys so much for tuning in we will sign off and see you all tomorrow [Music]
