5. Denver Broncos
The Denver Broncos come in at No. 5 in our rankings. This team added Jaylen Waddle in the offseason to finally give Bo Nix a legitimate No. 1 weapon. Denver has sported the league's best offensive line the last two years as well, and I'd also not discount the potential three-headed monster in the backfield with J.K. Dobbins, Jonah Coleman, and RJ Harvey.
The Broncos have been an ideal example of a franchise building around their young QB the right way. The second Nix was drafted, everything was about him, and we're now at a point where the Broncos are largely looked at as a legitimate Super Bowl contender.
There really isn't a clear flaw on offense, either, as Evan Engram, their starting tight end, has been used quite often this offseason. The Broncos boast one of the more complete rosters in the NFL and are also helping out their QB a ton, which is always a good thing.
4. Chicago Bears
The Chicago Bears come in at No. 4 in our rankings, and are in a similar boat to the Broncos. Where the Broncos have a bigger oveall advantage is with the defense, but that isn't really the point. The Bears do have a trio of stellar young players in Kyle Monangai, Luther Burden, and Colston Loveland, who all were notable contributors in year one.
The offensive line is also quite good despite the shocking retirement of Drew Dalman this offseason. Caleb Williams did also take some nice strides in year two. While the completion percentage fell, he was virtually more efficient across the board outside of that.
Chicago also has other key contributors in Rome Odunze, Cole Kmet, and D'Andre Swift, who are all modestly productive 'plus' players. The Bears really aren't missing much at all, and if the defense improves, Chicago could hoist the Lombardi Trophy this year.
