8. Denver Broncos

Another team that went all-in on a quarterback this offseason was the Denver Broncos. They ended up bringing in Russell Wilson, who ironically beat them in the Super Bowl following the 2013 season.

Wilson has a lot of talent around him in Jerry Jeudy, Courtland Sutton, Tim Patrick, Javonte Williams, and Melvin Gordon. On defense, they also have Patrick Surtain, Bradley Chubb, and Randy Gregory.

This is a team that suddenly could make a lot of noise. The only issue that could slow them down is the fact that they play in a tough division where three teams made the top-10 in these 2022 NFL Power Rankings.

7. Los Angeles Chargers

Speaking of the Broncos division, the Los Angeles Chargers are up next and they look like a team ready to break out. Justin Herbert has become one of the best quarterbacks in the game and they were able to lock up Mike Williams for the next several seasons.

They also added Zion Johnson in the draft to bolster the O-line and brought in Isaiah Spiller who can be a great complementary back for Austin Ekeler.

On defense, they got better too with the addition of Khalil Mack. Putting him and Joey Bosa on the same line could be what gets this team over the hump.
