Broncos Dominate AFC West in Free Agency

About this episode

Denver Broncos Lead AFC West After Day One of Free Agency: Rivals Struggle to Keep Up

The Denver Broncos have emerged as the clear frontrunner in the AFC West after the first day of free agency, while rivals like the Los Angeles Chargers, Kansas City Chiefs, and Las Vegas Raiders face significant roster gaps. The Broncos solid position stands in stark contrast to their competitors, who made limited progress in addressing their weaknesses.

The Raiders went on a spending spree, but their moves may not be enough to close the gap. The Chiefs added a few pieces, but their efforts fell short of transforming their roster. The Chargers, who finished second last year, focused on their weak offensive line but did little to address the issue effectively.

The Chargers projected starting line features strong tackles Rashawn Slater and Joe Alt, but the interior with Penning, Biadasz, and Strange looks shaky. Slaters injury history adds more uncertainty, and the team passed on bigger free agent targets despite plenty of cap room.

As free agency rolls into day two, the Broncos hold a comfortable edge, watching the divisions other teams scramble to catch up.

On March 10th, after the first day of free agency, the Denver Broncos stand out as the clear frontrunner in the AFC West. While rivals like the Los Angeles Chargers, Kansas City Chiefs, and Las Vegas Raiders made some moves, major roster gaps remain, especially compared to Denver's solid position. Day 1 is usually when teams push hardest to upgrade quickly before options like the draft come into play. The Raiders went on a spinning spree. The Chiefs added a few pieces, and the Chargers, who finished second last year, focused on their weak offensive. Line but did little to transform it. That unit was one of the league's worst in 2025, plagued by poor protection up front. Los Angeles Signs Center Tyler Bietes recently cut by Washington, along with draft disappointments Trevor Pining and Cole Strange, who are not, seen as reliable starters. Their projected starting line now features strong tackles Rashon Slater and Joe Alt, but the interior with Pining, Biotis, and Strange looks shaky.

Slater's injury history adds more uncertainty, and the team passed on bigger free agent targets despite plenty of cap room. As free agency rolls into day 2, the Broncos hold a comfortable edge, watching the division's other team scramble to catch up.
