Fantasy analysts outline top Denver Broncos players for 2026 season
Summary

As the 2026 NFL season nears, five Denver Broncos players stand out for fantasy football rosters. Analysts highlight Jaylen Waddle and Courtland Sutton as key receiving targets, noting Waddle's potential for high target volume and Sutton's consistent scoring history. J.K. Dobbins is identified as the primary running back in Denver, while quarterback Bo Nix is presented as an alternative option for those drafting later in the process. The team's defense also remains a consideration for its consistent sack production over the last two years. While sleepers like Pat Bryant and Evan Engram are mentioned for deeper leagues, experts suggest avoiding reaches for players based on current average draft positions.
