It's official.
Excited to announce Vance Joseph as head coach of the Denver Broncos!
Rumor of us being interested in anyone other than the QBs we have is another example of irresponsible, fake news!!
There are no words to describe the sudden loss of such a special player and special person.
Demaryius overcame tremendous adversity in his life, growing into a great leader and one of the very best. He was light-hearted, easy going and loved by everyone.
We will miss you, D.T.
We really wanted Bradley Chubb and are thrilled to make him a Denver Bronco.
Bradley's the best defensive player in the draft. He can rush the passer, is a hard worker and will be a great fit, complementing Von, Shane & Shaq!
Peyton was everything we thought he was and even more - for our team & community. What an AMAZING career & we're thankful he was a Bronco!!
Excited to have Jamaal Charles join the Broncos. A great addition to our backfield, and we're thrilled we won't have to play against him!
Thrilled to be able to select Jerry Jeudy with the 15th overall pick.
He’s an explosive player who was the top WR on our board. Jerry’s an excellent route runner who knows how to get open, and he’s from a winning program at Alabama.
Excited to add Jerry to the Broncos!
Vance and I had a great talk this morning about our plan to attack this offseason and get better as a team. We believe in Vance as our head coach. Together, we'll put in the work to improve in all areas and win in 2018.
Agreed to terms with on a two-year deal. He’s a great fit for us and is coming off a tremendous season. Excited to add Case's leadership, competitiveness and experience!
Noah Fant is an incredibly gifted and athletic tight end. He’s got great speed and he can really stretch the field. We’re very fortunate to get him at 20.
DeMarcus - you are the epitome of what an NFL player should be.
Congrats on your Hall of Fame career & thank you for becoming a Bronco!

We're thrilled that Paxton Lynch is going to be a Bronco. He fits what we do very well and plays the game with a lot of enthusiasm.
Congrats to Champ - the very first of many deserving Broncos defensive players in the Pro Football Hall of Fame!

There truly is no greater recognition in the world of football!!!!

Excited to announce we've agreed to a 3-year extension with WR Emmanuel Sanders. He plays with intensity & we love the way he competes!

We spent the morning with Kyle Shanahan in Atlanta. He's a very bright coach who's had a tremendous year and has a great future.
We've agreed to terms with Brandon McManus on a new four-year deal. Brandon's made a lot of big kicks & is an important weapon for our team!
The football world lost a heckuva coach and man today in Dan Reeves.
Dan was a winner and I owe a lot to him.
My heart goes out to Pam and the entire Reeves family.
Just got off the phone w/CJ & let him know we're excited to match the offer sheet. We have high expectations for CJ and are glad he's back!
We had a 1st-round grade on SMU WR Courtland Sutton and we're excited to select him at No. 40.
He has tremendous upside as a player and on top of that is a great person.
We're in this game to WIN. Although everyone's disappointed, we played hard & went down swinging!!!
Josey Jewell was an extremely productive player at LB for Iowa. He has a lot of great qualities as a person - a team captain for many years at Iowa and we're thrilled to get him at pick 106.
We’ve taken WR KJ Hamler from Penn State with the 46th overall pick. He’s an electric player with excellent speed and high character.
KJ’s also an outstanding kickoff and punt returner who can help us on special teams.
We've taken DE DeMarcus Walker with our 2nd rd pick. He was a very productive pass rusher at Florida St. and will fit in well w/our defense!
Royce Freeman had a tremendous career at Oregon and is our 3rd round pick. He's a big, physical runner who will fit in well in our backfield.
Lloyd Cushenberry is a strong, powerful center that we’ve drafted in the third round from LSU. He gives great effort, is from a championship program and has outstanding leadership qualities.
Bart was a true gentleman, a great player and a great pioneer for the NFL. He set a tremendous example for all QBs to emulate.
My thoughts are with Bart’s wife, Cherry, and the entire Starr family. #Legend
When I think about Tom Brady, he’s a true winner who handled himself with class throughout his entire career.
Even with those seven Super Bowl rings, he never lost that competitive fire to be the best.
Congratulations, , on a tremendous career!
Michael Ojemudia from Iowa is an extremely talented & bright corner we’re excited to add to the Broncos in the third round of the draft. He’s an exceptional tackler with good instincts and movement!
We’ve selected OL Dalton Risner from Kansas St and QB Drew Lock from Missouri in the second round.
Dalton bring great versatility to our OL along w/toughness and attitude.
Drew was a four-year starter in the SEC, and he’s going to learn from Joe and compete for the backup role.
Darian Stewart's an integral part of our defense who brings physicality, leadership & toughness. Thrilled he'll be a Bronco for 4 more yrs!
Acquired QB Mark Sanchez for a conditional '17 pick. He brings veteran leadership & will compete. This is the 1st step in our process.
We've agreed to trade for two-time Pro Bowl TE Vernon Davis from SF. He'll be a valuable addition to our team w/his experience & leadership.
When you talk about contributors, nobody’s given more to the game than Pat Bowlen. His impact on the Broncos and NFL will never be matched, and it’s great to see that recognized today.
I can’t wait for the day Pat’s bust joins the Bronco family in the !

We’ve selected Missouri TE Albert Okwuegbunam in the fourth round.
Albert has a great combination of size and speed, running a 4.49, and can block & recover. He had a great year with Drew in ‘18 as an added bonus!

Just wrapped up our interview with Dave Toub in KC. He's a great coach & person who has a very impressive track record with special teams.

Derek Wolfe's developed into one of the top DLs in the NFL, and we're excited w/his 4-year extension. Proud of him!!
Troy Fumagalli is an athletic, versatile tight end we are pleased to select in the 5th round from Wisconsin. He also spent some time with our coaches down at the Senior Bowl.
We’ve selected Colorado WR Juwann Winfree in the sixth round. He’s a tough, physical player with a lot of top-flight traits with his size, speed and hands. Great to add another player with in-state ties to the Broncos.
Picked RB Devontae Booker in 4th rd from Utah. One of the highest rated RBs on our board. Physical, versatile & has great ball skills.
We've taken WR Carlos Henderson from La. Tech in the 3rd rd. He catches the ball really well and is a good special teams player & returner.
Thrilled to reach a long-term deal with Demaryius. He is one of the NFL’s top WRs & will continue to be a big part of the Broncos' success!!
We enjoyed visiting with Vance Joseph at our facility today. He has great leadership qualities and a strong vision of what it takes to win.
Saddened to hear of Marty Schottenheimer’s passing. My heart goes out to his family, friends and former teams.
One of the all-time great competitors and coaches.
We were really impressed with Dre’Mont Jones’ ability to rush the passer along the defensive line at Ohio State. We’re glad he was there at our pick in the 3rd round, and he’ll help us in nickel situations in getting after the quarterback.
I want to make one thing clear about yesterday's news: Joe Ellis is doing an incredible job & I have full confidence in him. He's got all of our support.
Pat put a lot of good people in place to follow his plan, and that's what they're doing.
Remembering the brave men and women who gave their lives for our freedom.
Not only on Memorial Day, but every day those who made the ultimate sacrifice for us—as well as their families—deserve to be recognized!
In the sixth round, we’ve taken guard Netane Muti from Fresno St. A strong, powerful and tough player who did 44 reps at 225 at the combine. Netane is a powerful run blocker and a strong anchor vs bullrushers as well.
John Madden was a legend —His far-reaching impact on our league and love of the game were unmatched.
It was always special meeting with John when he would call our games. He was larger than life and will be missed by all.
Appreciative of the hard work that went into our draft--Matt Russell and our entire personnel staff, Vance and the coaches, all of our scouts and the support staffs. It takes a lot of people behind the scenes to make it all happen!!!
We’ve taken Wake Forest LB Justin Strnad in the fifth round. A smart player with good cover skills. Justin also has solid range and movement in space!

Our 3rd rd pick is Justin Simmons, a big rangy safety from Boston College. He's a center fielder with great cover skills.
McTelvin Agim, our third-round DL from Arkansas, has a lot of top traits as a player and person. He’s a good inside pass rusher with double-digit sacks for his career and was also very impressive in All-Star Games.
Peyton has never told Gary or myself that he doesn't want to be the backup. Any report or rumor that suggests otherwise is incorrect!!
Excited to announce we've agreed to terms with strong safety T.J. Ward. He'll bring energy and toughness to our secondary.
Our 6th rounder is RB De'Angelo Henderson from Coastal Carolina. A very productive back who scored lots of TDs & plays bigger than his size.
We'd like to welcome Colorado native Sam Jones, a guard from Arizona St, to the Broncos as our 6th Rd pick. He's a gritty, hard-nosed player who will compete on the interior of our OL.
Congrats to ., team owner Barney Visser & the entire . Proud to have you guys as our hometown racing team!!
