Positional Needs for Denver Broncos in next Free Agency Wave
By Tylor Walden
With the new league year finally underway, the Denver Broncos have added three to their roster. Where should the team go next in free agency?
Joe Flacco, Kareem Jackson, and Ja’Wuan James. Welcome to the Denver Broncos. The new league year is in full swing and John Elway as well as Vic Fangio have started constructing the roster for the 2019 season.
It all began back in February when the Denver Broncos and Baltimore Ravens agreed in principle to a trade that would send Super Bowl 47 MVP Joe Flacco to the Mile High City. That trade became official on Wednesday.
On Monday night, the team agreed with two free agents. Cornerback Kareem Jackson from the Houston Texans and Miami Dolphins right tackle Ju’Wuan James agreed to terms after the dinner hour into the late night.
Of course, it did not come without the Broncos losing some players as well. Center Matt Paradis is now a Carolina Panther while Bradley Roby will be playing for the Houston Texans. Case Keenum’s trade to the Washington Redskins was made official on Wednesday.
With the biggest wave of free agency likely settled in, the second wave is well underway. James Palmer from the NFL Network talked to John Elway about his next moves.
Where do the Broncos stand moving forward in free agency? John Elway told me today prices are still very high (they don’t have much room left after Jackson and James) so they’ll wait a little and see how things fall, then see if they can still fill the places they’d like to.

It appears as if the Denver Broncos are not going to make any more moves for a little bit. But there is no doubt that the team still has some needs going forward. What exactly is left to fill with the second wave of free agency beginning? Let us find out.
