Denver Broncos general manager George Paton was busy during free agency.
The Broncos signed 12 outside free agents and re-signed five of their in-house free agents. Denver also made a few cap-related roster cuts, and they lost 11 in-house free agents to other teams.
Now the Broncos will turn their attention toward the 2023 NFL draft. Denver currently holds five picks, with their first selections in the third round. The Broncos might also be able to add some more draft capital through trades.
So far this offseason, Denver has not made any trades, but that might change as the draft draws closer. Here’s a quick look back at the 37 moves the Broncos have made so far this offseason.
Signed 11 players to reserve/future contracts
The Broncos signed WR Victor Bolden, G Parker Ferguson, CB Faion Hicks, CB Delonte Hood, DB Devon Key, RB Tyreik McAllister, OLB Wyatt Ray, OL Hunter Thedford, LB Ray Wilborn, DL Jordan Jackson and OT Isaiah Prince to future reserve/contracts following the 2022 season.
Those players officially joined the 90-man offseason roster when the NFL’s new league year started in March.
