Trade deadline: Did the Broncos do enough at the trade deadline to compete with the AFC's best?
The NFL trade deadline has come and gone, and while many Broncos fans were hoping for a splashy move at running back or another offensive weapon, Denver took a different approach.
Instead of making a blockbuster move, the Broncos acquired linebacker Daiyan Henley from the Chargers, sending away a 2027 fourth-round pick and a 2028 fifth-round pick. The move strengthened an already talented defense, but it left many wondering whether Denver did enough to keep pace with AFC contenders like Kansas City, Buffalo, and Baltimore.
Dover and Cecil break down the Broncos' trade deadline strategy, what Henley brings to the defense, and whether Sean Payton and George Paton are showing confidence in their current roster or missing an opportunity to go all-in on a promising season. At 7-2 and leading the AFC West, Denver clearly believes in what it has. The question is whether that belief is justified.
