Kansas City Chiefs:

LT Eric Fisher

The Broncos have a need at left tackle going forward. The team declined Garett Bolles’ fifth-year option, making him a free agent following the 2020 season.

Bolles had been struggling throughout his career, generating penalty after penalty. Despite his growth over the course of the 2019 season, the team still will move on from him.

Their current backup plan is Elijah Wilkinson, who would compete with Bolles for the starting job if training camp started on time.

Adding Eric Fisher from the Chiefs would give the team the best left tackle in the division. It would ensure that the team was set at the position for many years to come, even if they had to take in the contract the Chiefs gave him.

Fisher has made great strides ever since the Chiefs made him the first-overall pick in the 2013 NFL draft.

It would also be huge to take away one of the most important players that is tasked with protecting the Chiefs’ Super Bowl-winning and MVP quarterback Patrick Mahomes.
