The Denver Broncos have what they feel is one of the best rosters in the NFL heading into the 2026 season.

The team made few changes to its core this offseason, a key indicator that head coach Sean Payton and the front office believe the team is close and has what it takes to win it all. This is likely based on the same belief held by the fanbase that if Bo Nix doesn't break his ankle in the divisional round last year, the Broncos go to the Super Bowl and have a chance to win it.

This offseason, the goal has been to keep the glue of the team intact, re-signing just about every player who had an expiring contract before using the draft to plug any potential holes.

Kay Adams believes the Broncos are the team to beat in 2026

Former NFL Network host Kay Adams, who now hosts her own show "Up and Adams" for the Fanduel TV Network, had major praise for the Broncos earlier this week. While discussing the 9.5 wins that Fanduel Sportsbook has put on the Broncos this season, Adams had this to say:

"They're returning all their starters, all of them. Jaylen Waddle, huge add, in the mix. I don't think we've seen what he can do. I don't think we've quite seen him cook the way that he can. And now that he's got Sean Payton dialing stuff up. He's not calling plays, at least to start the year, but he's definitely in the lab, figuring out how to use him, and so on.
