Broncos looking to get younger

The Denver Broncos are in “win from now on” mode. That has not shown in the last two and a half seasons. One thought that might help is to gain some young talent with a mix of veteran presence.

One of the factors behind not bringing back Peko was that the team wanted to get younger at the position. Oliver right now is 21 years old, so he will have a lot of game in him.

Denver has already begun the process of getting younger with players like Bradley Chubb, Justin Simmons, Adam Gotsis, and Josey Jewell. It will provide the added energy to the Denver Broncos defense.

Having Oliver on the team would help the team compete with the rest of the NFL.
