In what will be welcome news to most Denver Broncos fans

Courtland Sutton Jersey , a league source has let Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk know that John Elway intends to fire head coach Vance Joseph at the end of the season.This report comes on the heels of another in which Elway tried to replace Joseph last year with Mike Shanahan. A scheme that was blocked by Broncos CEO & President, Joe Ellis, and led to Elway sleeping on it making the decision to stick with Joseph for another year. With just one more loss, the Broncos will finish with their first back-to-back losing season in over 40 years and Elway isn’t going to let that stand. Florio noted that there is always a chance Elway might changed his mind again, but as a fan I’m 100% certain Elway won’t be changing his mind here. It would be ludicrous to keep things stale during the worst stretch this franchise has had since 1971. There is reason for optimism as the Broncos won just 12 games between 2009-2010 and emerged with five-straight playoff runs and two Super Bowl appearances. With just 11 wins in the last two seasons, the Broncos are again facing major changes that will apparently begin with Vance Joseph’s ouster as head coach.But first, Denver has two more games to play. The Denver Broncos have addressed major needs in free agency which allows them tremendous flexibility in the 2019 NFL Draft."Good morning, Broncos Country.The Denver Broncos entered this year’s free agency period with a handful of glaring holes on their roster. That has changed now, with several key acquisitions strengthening the foundations of the franchise. Fans across Broncos Country were hoping John Elway would open up the checkbook and sign key players to reforge the team into contenders — and that’s precisely what he did.Cornerback is no longer a dire need with Bryce Callahan and Kareem Jackson in the fold. With those two alongside Chris Harris Jr. and second-year player Isaac Yiadom Royce Freeman Jersey , the franchise has quality and depth at the position. Moreover, the right tackle position isnow solidified with the arrival of Ja’Wuan James. Those were two positions that draft analysts pegged as early areas to address for the Broncos, but that doesn’t seem likely now. If anything, the franchise’s free agency endeavors have provided them with tremendous flexibility approaching the 2019 NFL Draft.At this point in time, the Broncos aren’t pigeon-holed into having to go a certain direction early on in the draft. If you are a believer and adhere to the ‘best player available’ philosophy — the opportunities that lie ahead in late-April will be quite enticing. Though there are still a handful of holes on the roster (inside linebacker, a long-term solution at nose tackle and a game-changing tight end come to mind), a myriad of quality prospects at each position draft that would allow them to cross those needs off the list as well. The recent offseason moves have positioned the Broncos to make a lot of noise in this year’s draft. A blue-chip difference maker or a future franchise quarterback should be available for them at the tenth selection. But if they don’t see much of a difference between the value of whose on board then and who could be a few picks later, don’t be surprised to see Elway trade down and acquire more picks to infuse more talent into the roster. Three picks in the Top 75 selections is a good haul, though it could get even better. Most fans would be ecstatic if inside linebacker prospects Devin White or Devin Bush were the first pick Brandon McManus Jersey , but would anyone be disappointed if the Broncos traded down and made T.J. Hockenson or Noah Fant their top pick that would provide the offense with the premier tight end talent it desperately needs? I don’t think so. The opportunities are endless for the franchise in this year’s draft — and if Elway and his staff can do as good of a job as they did last year — the Broncos will be competing for championships sooner than you think.
