The Denver Broncos enter Week 7 of the 2026 NFL season with a 4-2 record. Despite their wins, the team's performance has raised questions about its offseason strategy, particularly in addressing key positions such as running back and linebacker. The Broncos opted to re-sign J.K. Dobbins instead of pursuing available talent like Kenneth Walker III or Travis Etienne. Their draft choices have also been criticized for lacking impact, with missed opportunities for solid inside linebacker prospects. As the trade deadline approaches, the Broncos may look for additional pieces to improve their roster.
