The Denver Broncos offense is about to go to the next level with Russell Wilson under center. Which five players should you prioritize in fantasy football?

It’s about time to start getting ready for your 2022 fantasy football leagues, and unlike in other recent years, the Denver Broncos players should be relevant in your drafts.

Whether you are playing in a standard redraft league or dynasty, there are Denver Broncos players worth being on your roster at every offensive position.

With Russell Wilson on board, everybody’s value gets a significant boost, but which players should you be targeting above others?

Let’s take a look at the top five.

Denver Broncos top fantasy options: Honorable mentions

Melvin Gordon, RB

This is going to seem foolish to leave Melvin Gordon out of the top 10 list after he racked up over 1,000 yards from scrimmage and 10 touchdowns last year.

That is easily worthy of top-five consideration on your own team, but I think we’ll see a number of players outscore him this year.

Gordon will still get plenty of touches but may not be RB1, and if his TD numbers are down this year, we could see a pretty substantial dip in overall points.

Greg Dulcich, TE

Greg Dulcich is an intriguing option for my fellow dynasty players.

I’m not saying you should avoid Dulcich in redraft leagues, by any means, but if you play in a dynasty league, he’s going to absolutely be a player to target.

Not only could Dulcich end up being one of the best rookie tight ends from this class, but he could end up as a top 15 tight end overall and you won’t have to spend a first or maybe even second-round dynasty pick on him.
