The Denver Broncos are the most suitable team for inside linebacker Patrick Queen.

The Denver Broncos are unlikely to be major spenders in free agency, but there’s a possibility they could secure some victories next month. One potential win could come from a suggestion made by Matt Bowen in a recent ESPN Insider article, proposing that inside linebacker Patrick Queen would be an ideal fit for the Broncos.

Queen, known for his ability to excel in run defense, coverage, and creating pressure on blitzes, could fill the potential gap left by Josey Jewell, who is entering free agency. Queen’s impressive stats from last season include 133 tackles, 3.5 sacks, and 18 pressures while playing for Baltimore. His addition would bring a physical and productive presence to Denver’s defense.

However, the likelihood of this happening seems slim, judging by Queen’s reaction to the projected free-agent deal. Even if offered a contract of four years totaling $67 million, it’s doubtful that Denver could afford it, especially considering the team’s rebuilding phase. While Queen would be a desirable addition and an upgrade over Jewell, the financial constraints make pursuing this option improbable.

As for the possibility of this scenario, it seems uncertain. Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments section below.

Horse Tracks:
– Sean Payton’s desired quarterback trait is challenging to evaluate, as it involves quick processing skills that aren’t always evident in college film.
– The NFL salary cap for 2024 will rise by a record $30.6 million, providing the Broncos with some short-term relief.
– The offseason for the Broncos includes resolving the Russell Wilson situation and initiating what appears to be a significant rebuilding phase under Sean Payton.
