  • 3 Biggest Broncos Takeaways from the Combine — Did Indy CHANGE the Plan? | Orange & Blue Today
    Mar 4 2026

    On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey and Andrew Mason break down the three biggest takeaways for the Denver Broncos coming out of the 2026 NFL Scouting Combine — and each one could reshape the team’s draft board. The headline belongs to Kenyon Sadiq, who delivered a historic workout and may have just pushed himself completely out of Denver’s range at pick No. 30. The guys dig into how high Sadiq could realistically go, whether the Broncos would need to trade up to have a shot, and what his meteoric rise means for the tight end plan. Next up: Mike Washington, who posted the fastest 40-yard dash of any running back at the Combine. Did he just sprint out of the third-round conversation. Is he now a second‑rounder — or even higher — and does that change how Denver approaches the RB class after showing interest in multiple prospects. Finally, the Broncos’ intentions at inside linebacker couldn’t be clearer. After meeting with a deep group of ILBs in Indianapolis, the fellas break down what that focus says about the roster, the veterans, and how early Denver might strike at the position. 🔥 In this episode: Kenyon Sadiq’s historic workout — and whether he’s now out of Denver’s reach How high Sadiq could climb after the Combine Mike Washington’s blazing 40 and his new draft projection Why ILB is suddenly a major Broncos priority How these three takeaways reshape Denver’s draft strategy Which takeaway do you think impacts the Broncos’ draft board the most heading into March?

  • Franchise Tag Fallout: Hall Tagged, Walker in Play — Broncos RB Plan in 2026 | Orange & Blue Today
    Mar 4 2026

    On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey and Andrew Mason break down how the NFL franchise tag deadline reshapes the Broncos’ offseason — especially at running back. The Jets tagged Breece Hall, officially removing him from Denver’s free‑agent board unless the Broncos want to surrender two first‑round picks to pry him loose. That’s not happening… so where does Denver turn now. The big headline: the Seahawks did NOT tag Super Bowl MVP Kenneth Walker, instantly making him one of the most explosive names on the market. Is Walker now the top target for Sean Payton. Would Denver actually make a big‑ticket move at running back after emphasizing value and committee approaches in recent years. And if Walker becomes the priority, what does that mean for re‑signing J.K. Dobbins, who flashed but never fully stayed healthy in 2025. The fellas dig into how aggressive Denver wants to be, how Walker fits with RJ Harvey, and whether the Broncos are ready to invest heavily in a position they’ve been hesitant to spend on. 🔥 In this episode: Jets tag Breece Hall — what it means for Denver’s RB plans Seahawks let Kenneth Walker hit the market — is he Denver’s No. 1 target Will the Broncos make a big move at RB or stay value‑focused How adding Walker would impact J.K. Dobbins’ future What the RB landscape looks like after the tag deadline If Denver does go big at running back, is Walker the move — or is there another back you’d rather see them chase?

  • Sean Payton on the DIFFICULTY of Scouting Players in the NIL Era | Orange & Blue Today
    Feb 26 2026

    On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey and Andrew Mason dig into one of the biggest challenges Sean Payton says teams are facing right now: scouting players in the NIL era. With college athletes staying in school longer, transferring more often, and making business‑driven decisions that didn’t exist a few years ago, Payton explains why evaluating prospects has become more complicated — and why teams must adapt or get left behind. The fellas break down how NIL has reshaped the scouting landscape, from older draft classes to players switching systems multiple times, and how that affects projection, maturity, and long‑term development. They also explore what this means for the Broncos’ approach at the Combine and in the 2026 NFL Draft, where understanding a player’s path is now just as important as understanding his tape. 🔥 In this episode: Sean Payton on why NIL has changed scouting forever How transfers and extra eligibility complicate evaluations Why teams must dig deeper into character, motivation, and fit How NIL‑era prospects impact Denver’s draft strategy What the Broncos are looking for at the Combine in 2026 The NIL era has changed the game — and the Broncos must evolve with it.

    Feb 24 2026

    On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey and Andrew Mason break down a simple but crucial question for the Broncos: which players actually help Bo Nix the most in 2026. The fellas start with Jaleel McLaughlin, who’s set to be a restricted free agent. Should Denver tender him and keep his explosive change‑of‑pace ability in the building, or is it time to reshape the RB room around bigger bodies and more complete backs. They also dive into the tight end conversation, including whether the Broncos still need Adam Trautman, a dominant blocker who offers little as a receiver but remains a Sean Payton favorite. And then there’s the big headline: Pro Football Focus’ latest mock draft has Denver selecting Oregon TE Kenyon Sadiq in the first round. Would Sadiq be the true difference‑maker who elevates Bo Nix’s Year 3 leap — and is tight end the right position to target at No. 30. 🔥 In this episode: Should Denver tender RFA Jaleel McLaughlin Does Adam Trautman still have a role beyond blocking Why PFF mocks Kenyon Sadiq to Denver at 30 Which offensive pieces best support Bo Nix in 2026 How these decisions shape Sean Payton’s vision Who helps Bo Nix the most — McLaughlin, Trautman, or a first‑round TE like Sadiq.

The fellas dig into his athletic profile, his connection to Bo Nix, and whether he’s the kind of offensive weapon Sean Payton would trade assets to go get. They also dive into Sam Roush from Stanford — a name Daniel Jeremiah believes Denver should take a long look at — and why his size, fluidity, and red‑zone upside make him a legitimate option if the Broncos stay put. And for Day 3, Cecil highlights Tanner Koizol from Houston, a sleeper with real developmental upside who could become a long‑term contributor in the right system. 🔥 In this episode: - Should Denver trade up for Kenyon Sadiq - Why Sam Roush is gaining traction as a Round 2–3 target - Tanner Koizol as a Day 3 sleeper with real upside - How each TE fits Sean Payton’s 2026 offensive vision - Which prospect best complements Bo Nix’s strengths Is tight end the Broncos’ sneaky priority in this draft — and who’s the right fit at 30.
