Summary

DNVR Broncos Zac Stevens & Henry Chisholm break down Why this year Denver Broncos Roster is better than last years Denver Broncos Roster. The Denver Broncos’ 2025 53-man roster is set — and it looks stronger top to bottom than last season’s. We go position-by-position, from Bo Nix’s offense boosted by TE Evan Engram and RB J.K. Dobbins to a WR room headlined by Marvin Mims Jr., Troy Franklin, and Pat Bryant. On defense, Pat Surtain II leads a loaded unit now featuring All-Pro S Talanoa Hufanga, LB Dre Greenlaw, and first-round CB Jahdae Barron — making a real case that Denver’s cornerback depth is the NFL’s best. We also hit special teams, the one spot that could be shakier in Week 1, and debate just how big the year-over-year upgrade truly is. #nfl #football #denverbroncos #broncos #bonix #nfltrainingcamp #seanpayton

This group, I think a cornerback, is the best in the NFL, and it's not even close,

0:05.0

and you did get better from last year.

0:08.8

The Denver Broncos 53-man roster is set, and it is so much better than the roster they had last year.

0:17.4

We're going to break that down on this conversation, because looking at the 53-man roster this year, compared to last year. We're going to break that down on this conversation because looking at the 53

0:21.8

man roster this year compared to last year's 53 man roster and then what the roster looked

0:27.1

like at the end of the season, this Broncos team, you can make a case, is better at every

0:32.9

single position on the entire roster. And Henry, what we can't forget, this is a playoff team

0:39.4

last year with a rookie quarterback and we'll go down. But I believe that it's an easy argument

0:45.7

to be made that the Broncos are better at every position than they were last year. I know one for

0:52.7

sure they're not. Oh, what's that? Punter. Okay, okay. And you know what? If that's the case right there, which you could be right. And by the end of the year, you hope it's better. Exactly. But on the week one starting roster, if there's one position, and you're right, you got me. If there's one position that's weaker come week one, you would say punter

1:11.4

because they have a rookie who's very raw, Jeremy Croshock compared to Riley Dixon last year. Riley Dixon, you kind of knew what you were going to get with him. And Jeremy and Crosha, you have no idea what you're going to get with him on a punt by punt basis. But you're right. At the end of the season, you hope that he's better,

1:08.8

and that's why the Broncos are doing that.

1:10.9

Can you make an argument for any other position?

1:14.2

Because... But you're right. At the end of the season, you hope that he's better. And that's why the Broncos are doing that.

1:47.4

Can you make an argument for any other position? Because you got me on one, and it's the freaking punter. I think I look at where there's no evidence. So, like, running back, you're still waiting for evidence. I think we all like the moves they've made. but until you actually see like J.K. Dobbins was what he was beginning of the last year,

1:47.8

not the end of last year. We're, you know, after the first two weeks, he averaged 3.8 yards per carry. Giovante Williams averaged 3.8 yards per carry last year. It's the same number. RJ Harvey, like, you still got to see, okay. I mean, I'm just, I'm not saying I would trade this year's running back from him for last years, but that's one where we don't have the evidence yet.

2:04.3

I understand. I mean, I'm just, I'm not saying I would trade this year's running back from him for last years, but that's one where we don't have the evidence yet.

2:05.4

I understand what you're saying.

2:11.1

And it's fair to bring up, but I have the evidence of what I need with how bad the room was last year.

2:12.8

You've moved on from your top guys from last year, and you have a whole new set. Remember, in Sean

2:18.5

Peyton's offenses, the third string running back only sees the ball 4% or only sees the field

2:25.9

4% of snap. So the Broncos have thrown out the room from last year outside of keeping
