Broncos Defense A High-End Play In Week 1
2 years agoThe Denver Broncos defense will be an excellent high-end fantasy option for a Week 1 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks on Monday night. Seattle is expected to start two rookies at offensive tackle in first-rounder Charles Cross and third-round right tackle Abraham Lucas. They'll also be facing quarterback Geno Smith, who is considered one of the weaker starting signal-callers in the league. Denver's D was the strength of their team in 2021, but they only ranked 24th in fantasy points with 36 sacks (tied for 18th), six fumble recoveries (tied for 26th) and 13 interceptions (tied for 15th). They'll be hoping the addition of defensive end Randy Gregory can help them get after the QB more while being paired with Bradley Chubb.
