For the NFL, it's March 10th. Here's what's happening. Make sure you're subscribed so you never miss an update. The Denver Broncos front office stuck to their offseason plan of building continuity by resigning key players from last year's squad instead of chasing big free agent names. Head coach Sean Payton and general manager George Payton prioritize keeping the group that reached the AFC Championship starting with running back. JK Davins on a two-year deal worth up to $20 million, including $8 million guaranteed. Meanwhile, at Inside Linebacker, the team locked up their top two performers from last season. They gave Justin Shrenad a three-year extension and Alex Singleton a two-year contract, passing on outside upgrades despite fan hopes for fresh faces. This move keeps the defensive core intact heading into next season. Fans seem a bit disappointed so far. Expecting splash-year additions after missing out on backs like Travis Etienne, who signed a four-year 52 million dollar packed with the Saints.

Still, the Broncos' strategy echoes their recent extensions for stars like Patrick Sertain and Quinn Miners shifting away from past spending sprees. One big loss came on the defensive line, where John Franklin Myers headed to the Tennessee Titans on a $3.63 million deal, with $42 million guaranteed that should bring Denver a fourth-round compensatory pick in the 2027 draft, unless offset by future moves. Looking ahead, more in-house deals and possible draft targets could round out the roster, especially at running back in linebacker. It's early days in free agency, and the focus on homegrown talent might pay off big for the Broncos down the line. This episode is supported by our sponsor, See Details in the Description.
