Packers, Broncos Offensive Linemen in Trade Rumors

0:00On March 1st, the Green Bay Packers and Denver Broncos may part ways with interior offensive linemen this off-season. Packers Center Elton Jenkins and Broncos guard Ben Powers face large salary cap hits after tough injury seasons. Both are starters who could draw interest from other teams looking to bolster their lines. ESPN reporter Jeremy Fowler points out these players might get traded rather than released outright. Their skills make them valuable assets, even with the cap concerns. Trading could help the Packers and Broncos manage money while avoiding a free agent bidding war. Teams needing help up front see this as a chance to grab proven talent without waiting for cuts. A straight release would be the cheapest option for suitors, but deals might happen to lock them in early. This setup keeps everyone guessing on the best path forward. Potential landing spots include the Las Vegas Raiders who could need guards or a center of free agents to part. The New York Giants seek guard upgrades in center depth. The Buffalo Bills, tied on cap space, might target them if they're on-limin' leave.
