On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey and Andrew Mason break down how Red Murdock, the Broncos’ final pick of the 2026 NFL Draft, might end up being far more than “Mr. Irrelevant.” The Buffalo linebacker is a ball‑finder with real tackling juice, and Denver believes they uncovered a legitimate depth piece who can compete right away.

The Broncos’ ILB room is stable at the top with Justin Strnad and Alex Singleton, but behind them it’s wide open. Can Murdock carve out a role on special teams — or even push for defensive snaps. What does this mean for Drew Sanders, who has yet to claim a consistent role. And how does Jonah Elliss look as he experiments with inside linebacker reps.

Denver needed competition, energy, and developmental upside at ILB. Red Murdock brings all three.

🔥 In this episode:

• Why Red Murdock was a fantastic late‑round find for Denver

• How he fits behind Strnad and Singleton in the ILB rotation

• Whether Murdock can earn rookie snaps — especially on special teams

• What the team really thinks about Drew Sanders’ future

• How Jonah Elliss looks with some time at ILB

• Why the back end of the ILB room is suddenly one of the most intriguing battles

A seventh‑round pick with real juice — and a position group that just got a lot more interesting.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey digs into one of the most intriguing storylines of rookie minicamp: are the Broncos quietly auditioning quarterbacks this weekend. Denver is bringing in Nathan Peterman for a tryout — a veteran who knows systems, protections, and can run a practice field — but the real buzz comes from EJ Warner, the son of Hall of Famer Kurt Warner.

Warner was just at Chiefs rookie minicamp last week, and now he gets a shot to impress in Denver. He’s smart, tough, experienced, and has logged a ton of college reps. The Broncos need a camp arm, but they also need someone who can help stabilize the room while Bo Nix recovers from ankle surgery. This weekend could determine whether Warner earns a longer look.

With Nix sidelined and Jarrett Stidham the only healthy veteran, the Broncos are evaluating every option — and this minicamp suddenly has real stakes for the QB depth chart.

🔥 In this episode:

• Why the Broncos are bringing in Nathan Peterman for a tryout

• What EJ Warner can show after visiting the Chiefs last week

• How Bo Nix’s injury timeline impacts the QB room

• Whether Denver is looking for a true No. 3 or just a camp arm

• What this weekend means for the Broncos’ offseason plan at quarterback

A rookie minicamp with real quarterback implications — and OBT is all over it.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey and Andrew Mason open up the mailbag and dive into what’s on the minds of Broncos Country right now. Fans want answers — and we’re hitting every major topic. First up: Bo Nix’s ankle. After his planned cleanup procedure, what does the timeline really look like, and how much should fans worry about his offseason availability. Then we tackle the big free‑agent question: could the Broncos add a veteran like Cam Heyward to bolster the defensive front, and what would it take for that to happen. And of course, the spotlight turns to Davis Webb, who steps into the play‑caller role for the first time. How will he handle the responsibility, what changes might fans see, and why his relationship with Nix matters more than ever. 🔥 In this episode: Bo Nix’s ankle update — what the procedure means for OTAs and beyond Could Denver add a veteran free agent like Cam Heyward How Davis Webb will operate as a first‑time play‑caller What fans are most concerned about heading into the summer Cecil and Mase answer the biggest questions from Broncos Country A full‑throttle Q&A episode — honest answers, real insight, and everything Broncos fans are buzzing about.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey and Andrew Mason break down how the 2026 NFL Draft reshaped the Broncos secondary, with a special focus on seventh‑round pick Miles Scott. Denver lost PJ Locke to the Cowboys in free agency — a major blow to their reliable depth — and now enters the season with talent at the top but real questions behind Brandon Jones and Talanoa Hufanga. Scott brings range, instincts, and special‑teams toughness, giving him a legitimate shot to make the roster and contribute immediately on teams. But can he carve out defensive snaps as a rookie. And what about JL Skinner, whose development becomes even more important with Locke gone and the depth chart thinning out. The Broncos’ back end has upside, but it also has uncertainty — and this draft class may need to grow up fast. 🔥 In this episode: How seventh‑rounder Miles Scott fits into Denver’s secondary Why losing PJ Locke puts pressure on the young safeties Whether Scott can earn rookie snaps — at least on special teams Where JL Skinner stands entering a pivotal year Why the Broncos’ safety depth is talented… but unproven A draft pick, a departure, and a secondary with something to prove — OBT breaks it all down.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey and Andrew Mason break down why the Broncos could not pass on Kage Casey in the fourth round — even while gambling that Justin Joly would still be on the board later. Kasey was simply too talented, too versatile, and too clean a scheme fit to ignore. Denver sees Casey as a true OL hybrid — a player who can line up at tackle in a pinch but may ultimately project as a powerful, athletic guard in Sean Payton’s system. And that raises the big question: is he the future replacement for Ben Powers. With Powers’ contract structure and age, the writing might already be on the wall. Casey’s intelligence, anchor, and movement skills give him a real shot to start as early as 2027 — or even sooner if injuries or competition open the door. This pick wasn’t just about depth. It was about succession planning. 🔥 In this episode: Why the Broncos couldn’t pass on Kage Casey at 108 How his versatility shapes his long‑term role — guard or tackle Whether he’s the heir apparent to Ben Powers Why Casey could push for a starting job as early as next season What this pick says about Denver’s evolving offensive line philosophy A forward‑thinking pick with real upside — and OBT breaks down every angle.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey and Andrew Mason break down what the selection of Tyler Onyedim at No. 66 really means for the Broncos’ defensive line — both in 2026 and beyond. Denver didn’t just add depth; they added a violent, explosive, scheme‑perfect disruptor who could force his way into a larger‑than‑expected role as a rookie. Onyedim’s power, leverage, and ability to win inside align perfectly with what Vance Joseph wants from his front. And the pick sends a clear message about the future of the room. DJ Jones is entering the final stretch of his contract, Malcolm Roach is a rotational piece, and Sai’vion Jones is still developing. Onyedim gives Denver a young, cost‑controlled interior presence who could become a foundational starter by 2027 — if not sooner. This wasn’t just a pick. It was a directional statement about where the Broncos want their defensive identity to go. 🔥 In this episode: How Tyler Onyedim upgrades the Broncos’ defensive line immediately Why the rookie could have a bigger role than anyone expected What this selection signals about DJ Jones’ and Malcolm Roach’s futures How Onyedim fits alongside Sai’vion Jones in the long‑term plan Why this pick reflects Denver’s shift toward youth, power, and disruption up front A sneaky‑big pick with major ripple effects — and we’re breaking it all down on OBT.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey and Andrew Mason break down the news that Bo Nix underwent a second ankle procedure — a planned “clean‑up” surgery that was part of his recovery timeline all along. According to multiple reports, this was an anticipated follow‑up during a scheduled recheck with Dr. Norman Waldrop, the same surgeon who repaired the original fracture in January. So why didn’t we hear about it earlier? Because the Broncos treated it as routine, not a setback. Sean Payton even referenced the recheck last week but didn’t disclose the procedure, calling it “nothing to report” — which tracks with how teams typically handle expected follow‑ups. What does it mean for Nix’s offseason? Reports now indicate his participation in OTAs and minicamp could be limited, even though the team had previously suggested he’d be ready. The cleanup slightly adjusts expectations, but there are no long‑term concerns about the ankle. The key: Nix is still expected to be fully ready for the start of training camp, with every major outlet reporting the same timeline. 🔥 In this episode: Why the second ankle procedure happened — and why it was expected Why the Broncos didn’t announce it earlier How it affects Nix’s availability for OTAs and minicamp Why training camp remains the target — and why the team isn’t worried What this means for Denver’s offseason QB plan A minor procedure, a predictable timeline shift, and no panic inside the building — but plenty to unpack for Broncos Country.

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey and Andrew Mason break down the tight end overhaul that just hit Dove Valley. The Broncos didn’t just add one weapon — they added two. Fifth‑round pick Justin Joly brings the speed, fluidity, and route‑running of a modern move tight end, while seventh‑rounder Dallen Bentley arrives as a rugged, developmental in‑line option with real upside. Together, they jam the Broncos’ TE room with youth, versatility, and long‑term potential.

Joly is the seam‑stretching threat who can win like a big slot and eventually push to replace Evan Engram. Bentley is the physical complement — a blocker with sneaky athleticism who could carve out a role early in heavy packages. Suddenly, a position that looked thin now looks deep, competitive, and built for Sean Payton’s creativity.

🔥 In this episode:

• How Justin Joly changes the TE room on Day 1

• Why Dallen Bentley is a perfect developmental fit behind Engram

• How the duo gives Sean Payton true formation flexibility

• What this means for the offense in 2026 and beyond

• Who has the inside track to be TE2 by the end of camp
