Great example of doublespeak here: "Despite fielding Alex Singleton and Josey Jewell as their starting linebackers for the past couple of years, the
Denver Broncos have had a
significant need to bolster their linebacker room for a long time. Drew Sanders is a young option who is still learning the ropes of playing the position after transitioning from playing the edge. However, his positional future is still up in the air after some remarks from George Paton at the NFL Scouting Combine about him ending up as an edge."
So even though Jewell and Singleton were an amazing dynamic duo of tackling machines unparalleled in the league, the Broncos had a "significant need to bolster" the position even while Jewell and Singleton were starting and dominating. Ok, whatever, nothing to see here, move along. . .
The Broncos need to replace Josey Jewell, and could look to do so with help from the draft.
