Denver Broncos News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now! — Broncos' Powers: Overpaid or Vital?. Machine-transcribed; use the interactive transcript above to jump the player to any line.
On March 28th, the Denver Broncos built a killer roster that's got championship vibes, but Bleacher Report just dropped a hot take calling offensive. Garbin powers their most overpaid dude. Analyst Brad Gadyon says, powers is the weak spot on a strong line, especially heading into age 30 with zero pro-bowl nods in an 18 point. Two million dollar cap hit next year, ninth-highest at guard. Powers tore his biceps last season, missing big chunks of time, which fueled all kinds of talk. When the team locked up Alex Powell-Jesky with a new deal this offseason, folks figured powers might get cut to save cap space. But nope, Broncos doubled down, keeping him for his reliability outside that injury. He's counting 18.1 million against the cap in 2026, and they expect him to hold it down. You could flip the script and point at right tackle Mike McGlinchey, who's got the team's highest cap hit at 23.7 million this year. Still, the focus stays on online continuity, no shakeups planned. That roster depth keeps Denver rolling
strong, betting on their lines to pave the way come. Game time.
