Mile High Report • • sports
Key Points:
- The Denver Broncos traded their 2026 first-round pick to the Miami Dolphins for wide receiver Jaylen Waddle, adding a proven offensive weapon to their roster.
- Fourth-round running back Jonah Coleman was a notable draft addition, expected to bolster the Broncos' short-yardage running game alongside RJ Harvey and J.K. Dobbins.
- The Broncos maintained much of their previous roster, emphasizing stability and relying on one of the NFL’s best defenses to remain competitive.
- Pairing Jaylen Waddle with Courtland Sutton provides quarterback Bo Nix with a strong wide receiver duo, potentially enhancing the passing attack.
- Improvement in the running game, aided by Coleman’s addition, could reduce pressure on the defense and help Denver return to Super Bowl contention.
