Conclusion

With the key starters on defense and the young talent on the roster, I do not believe the Denver Broncos have a huge need at safety. Players like Justin Simmons, Darian Stewart, Will Parks, and Su’a Cravens could thrive well under Vic Fangio.

Next. Five trades that John Elway should consider. dark

Fangio is a grizzly, no non-sense coach who specializes in defense. I believe he will get more out his players than Vance Joseph was able to.

I do not think it would hurt to find a player either in free agency, with a low price, or a late round draft pick at safety. But I do not think a safety is the biggest concern with how the position looks right now.

A new defensive mind could do wonders for this team. It will all come down to when the players hit the field.
