The Denver Broncos just beat the Kansas City Chiefs and now sit atop the AFC West. What that should make clear is that this team should look to get more help at the NFL trade deadline.

With an elite defense, the biggest thing for Denver's front office to focus on is helping out Bo Nix. While they could go after Jonathan Taylor, as the rumors lately have indicated, there is another area they could look to upgrade: the offensive line.
ESPN's Seth Walder is urging the Broncos to do just that with a bold trade for Philadelphia Eagles three-time Pro Bowl offensive guard Landon Dickerson.
Broncos urged to trade for Landon Dickerson from Eagles
"Who should they target? Eagles G Landon Dickerson," Walder writes. "One of the reasons quarterback Bo Nix had early career success was that he played behind one of the best offensive lines. This season, that hasn't been the case with the Broncos ranking 20th in pass-block win rate."
With the Broncos' offensive line playing below expectations this season, it would make sense to consider adding to the OL in some capacity.
Walder believes Dickerson, the veteran lineman from the Eagles who helped them win a Super Bowl over the Chiefs in 2024, could be an option for the Broncos.

Dickerson is a left guard, so he could take over for Ben Powers and help raise the floor of this offense, if Denver's front office believes Dickerson's struggles are behind him.
Since returning from injured reserve, he has looked a lot better for the Eagles. With Philadelphia at 2-6, someone like Dickerson is very much available for trade.
He's a three-time Pro Bowler and Super Bowl champion, and while his contract gets expensive, the Broncos could get out of his deal if they don't like how he plays.
This could be a low-cost, low-risk move for the Broncos that could be a major improvement for the OL if it works out. Protecting Nix should be their top priority, and adding Dickerson could do just that.
