Broncos Eyeing Goedert for Tight End Upgrade

0:00On March 5th, the Denver Broncos head into free agency next week with just two tight ends under contract, Evan Angrum and Caleb Loner. They're actively shopping for more help, especially someone who can block in line and catch passes. One name gaining buzz is Dallas Goetert, the 31-year-old veteran from the Philadelphia Eagles with eight NFL seasons under his belt. Goetert stands six feet five inches and weighs 256 pounds. Last season, he played 15 games, starting all of them and hauled in 60 catches on 82 targets for 591 yards and 11 touchdowns. He boasts a 73% catch rate and has been reliable over his career with only 20 drops in eight years. Fans and analysts see him as a solid short-term fit for Denver, bringing experience and red zone prowess that could boost their offense right away. His past run blocking has been elite, helping jumpstart ground games and he'd add versatility to a thin room without breaking the bank long term.

His market value sits around $6 million per year, per estimates, making him low risk if they pursue a deal. Overall, Goetert offers battle-tested skills and championship experience that few free agents match, positioning the Broncos well for a quick upgrade, as they build depth.
