Robert Tonyan, Tight End

(2 yr / 9 mil)

This one is rather boring but oh well! The Denver Broncos traded away starting tight end Noah Fant, and currently Albert Okwuegbunam sits atop the depth chart. Okwuegbunam is a fan and front office favorite, so he will be given ample opportunity to seize the starting role. Robert Tonyan is familiar with the style of offense that Hackett will run, having spent the prior couple seasons together in Green Bay. It isn’t a sexy signing but Tonyan can step in as starter in the event of injury, once he’s cleared after his injury last season in Arizona on Thursday night.

Von Miller, EDGE

(2 yr / 24 mil)

The motto of this article has been “familiar faces”. There is no fanbase more familiar with Von Miller than the Denver Broncos. After trading away their star pass rusher for second- and third-round picks in the 2022 NFL Draft, the team should look to bring him back. Miller helped the Rams win Super Bowl LVI, and now is given the chance to go win another one back home in Denver. They are a bonafide title contender with Russell Wilson, and it would add a fun storyline to the season. Von deserves a chance to bring another title to the city.
