On April 3rd, the Denver Broncos are the only NFL team this offseason that has an inked a single outside free agent. That's wild, right? They've been quiet on that front, but sources say they swung big for Jacksonville's Travis Etienne, one of the top running backs on the market. Earlier this week, reports came out that Broncos' execs were confident they'd land Etienne. Instead, he bolted to the New Orleans Saints on a 4-year, $48 million deal, leaving Denver in the dust. Fans and insiders are buzzing about this miss, especially since the Broncos desperately needed running back help alongside their current pieces. It highlights how competitive free agency got, with team snatching up stars left and right. To fill the gap, head coach Sean Payton made resigning JK Dobbins their absolute top priority over everyone else. Dobbins balled out last year before injuries hit, so he's a solid internal fix. As Saga proves, the Broncos weren't sitting idle.
