---DENVER BRONCOS---
POSITIONS OF NEED:
1. QB
2. ILB
3. G
4. TE
5. S
ADDITIONS:
QB Mark Sanchez (from Eagles)
T Russell Okung (from Seahawks)
T Donald Stephenson (from Chiefs)
DE Jared Crick (from Texans)
DEPARTURES:
QB Peyton Manning (Retirement)
QB Brock Osweiler (Texans)
TE Owen Daniels (Free agency)
TE Vernon Davis (Redskins)
T Ryan Clady (Jets)
T Ryan Harris (Steelers)
G Evan Mathis (Cardinals)
G Louis Vasquez (Free agency)
DE Malik Jackson (Jaguars)
ILB Danny Trevathan (Bears)
S Omar Bolden (Bears)
S David Bruton (Redskins)
ANALYSIS:
The Broncos will try to recover without Peyton Manning, who was a liability for them last season anyway. The returning of Brandon Marshall and Von Miller should keep the defense one of the best next year, but they'll need to replace Trevathan somehow. The departure of Malik Jackson hurts deeply, he was the most disrupting pass rusher in the playoffs last season, with the exception of Von Miller. Still having one of the best secondaries in the league, and losing two safeties is saying something to how dominant Denver's defense was. If I were Denver, I would target Paxton Lynch in the draft. I believe he's the best out of the top 3 QBs (Wentz, Goff, and Lynch). Denver most likely would have to trade up for that to happen, but I don't believe they're bringing in Sanchez to start. No matter which QB Denver decides to start, they will have to rely on a heavy dose of their running game or their offense will struggle. Sanchez wouldn't be as bad with a good team around him (a year or two ago he wasn't awful with the Eagles), he'd be serviceable, but I still believe Lynch would be the right way to go.
SCHEDULE PREDICTION
WEEK 1: vs Carolina Panthers (8:30 PM, NBC): L 21-10 (0-1)
WEEK 2: vs Indianapolis Colts (4:25 PM, CBS): W 23-17 (1-1)
WEEK 3: at Cincinnati Bengals (1:00 PM, CBS): L 24-14 (1-2)
WEEK 4: at Tampa Bay Buccaneers (4:05 PM, CBS): W 27-12 (2-2)
WEEK 5: vs Atlanta Falcons (4:05 PM, FOX): W 30-16 (3-2)
WEEK 6: at San Diego Chargers (8:25 PM, CBS): W 28-20 (4-2)
WEEK 7: vs Houston Texans (8:30 PM, ESPN): W 31-10 (5-2)
WEEK 8: vs San Diego Chargers (4:05 PM, CBS): W 20-13 (6-2)
WEEK 9: at Oakland Raiders (8:30 PM, NBC): L 26-17 (6-3)
WEEK 10: at New Orleans Saints (1:00 PM, CBS): W 34-14 (7-3)
WEEK 11: ***BYE***
WEEK 12: vs Kansas City Chiefs (4:25 PM, CBS): W 23-21 (8-3)
WEEK 13: at Jacksonville Jaguars (1:00 PM, CBS): L 25-22 (8-4)
WEEK 14: at Tennessee Titans (1:00 PM, CBS): W 35-20 (9-4)
WEEK 15: vs New England Patriots (4:25 PM, CBS): L 28-16 (9-5)
WEEK 16: at Kansas City Chiefs (8:30 PM, NBC): L 29-21 (9-6)
WEEK 17: vs Oakland Raiders (4:25 PM, CBS): W 31-23 (10-6)
For the Broncos, I see 10-6 as a realistic record for them. Their schedule opens tough (vs CAR, vs IND, and @CIN), and it would take time for their QB to get used to their new team. It helps they play the AFC/NFC South this season, but their division is going to be tough.
WEEK 1: vs Carolina Panthers (WHY LOSS?):
Cam will be as mad as ever. I don't see Denver winning this game. Also, Carolina will regain Kelvin Benjamin, while a new Denver QB will be stepping in against a Carolina defense that didn't lose many players.
WEEK 3: at Cincinnati Bengals (WHY LOSS?):
As all of us know, the Bengals are the regular season kings. They're a team that has the talent to be in the Super Bowl, but always suffer a first round exit in the playoffs. Especially on the road, I don't see Denver winning this game.
WEEK 9: at Oakland Raiders (WHY LOSS?)
The Raiders gained many new additions with their huge cap room this offseason. Like Kansas City, they will be a tough foe in this division. A season split for these two teams is realistic enough.
WEEK 13: at Jacksonville Jaguars (WHY LOSS?):
I could see someone saying I'm biased in this game, since I'm a Jacksonville fan, but it's the perfect storm. In recent years, the Broncos have played some pretty close games against the Jaguars. A key if in this game is if Jacksonville's O-Line can hold up, but there's always that upset game once or twice in a season, right?
WEEK 15: vs New England Patriots (WHY LOSS?):
If this is a healthy Patriots team, I can almost guarantee a Broncos loss even when it's in Denver.
WEEK 16: at Kansas City Chiefs (WHY LOSS?):
Just like Oakland and Denver, I see Kansas City and Denver splitting.

---LOS ANGELES RAMS---
POSITIONS OF NEED:
1. QB
2. CB
3. WR
4. S
5. G
ADDITIONS:
DE Quinton Coples (from Dolphins)
CB Coty Sensabaugh (from Titans)
DEPARTURES:
DE Chris Long (Patriots)
DT Nick Fairley (Saints)
ILB James Laurinaitis (Saints)
CB Janoris Jenkins (Giants)
S Rodney McLeod (Eagles)
ANALYSIS:
The Rams have budgeted their future for the #1 overall pick in this year's draft. Rumors support that they're more interested in Jared Goff than Carson Wentz. I don't believe any of those two QBs can solve the Rams' problems. They have been hit hard on the defensive side, especially with the departure of Jenkins and McLeod. If Brian Quick comes back healthy, he can be their legitimate WR1 - but Kenny Britt on the other side definitely isn't the answer. Tavon Austin is just a change of pace guy, and they'll need to target WRs/CBs. QB is definitely their greatest position of need, but in this draft, I don't believe QB is the answer for the Rams. They'll have no 2nd round and 3rd round picks this year, and 1st round pick and 3rd round pick next year. 2nd rounders/3rd rounders can make or break a team, and without that, I see the Rams going into rebuilding mode after this season, and firing Jeff Fisher. With the Cardinals and Seahawks still at large in the division, the Rams will be fighting the 49ers for 3rd place. Gurley will have to be relied on this entire season.
SCHEDULE PREDICTION
WEEK 1: at San Francisco 49ers (10:20 PM, ESPN): L 23-13 (0-1)
WEEK 2: vs Seattle Seahawks (4:05 PM, FOX): W 26-19 (1-1)
WEEK 3: at Tampa Bay Buccaneers (4:05 PM, FOX): L 31-14 (1-2)
WEEK 4: at Arizona Cardinals (4:25 PM, FOX): L 28-7 (1-3)
WEEK 5: vs Buffalo Bills (4:25 PM, CBS): W 24-21 (2-3)
WEEK 6: at Detroit Lions (1:00 PM, FOX): L 37-17 (2-4)
WEEK 7: vs New York Giants (9:30 AM, London): L 34-20 (2-5)
WEEK 8: ***BYE***
WEEK 9: vs Carolina Panthers (4:05 PM, FOX): L 41-10 (2-6)
WEEK 10: at New York Jets (1:00 PM, FOX): L 27-23 (2-7)
WEEK 11: vs Miami Dolphins (4:05 PM, FOX): W 30-22 (3-7)
WEEK 12: at New Orleans Saints (1:00 PM, FOX): W 21-17 (4-7)
WEEK 13: at New England Patriots (1:00 PM, FOX): L 35-14 (4-8)
WEEK 14: vs Atlanta Falcons (4:25 PM, FOX): L 24-17 (4-9)
WEEK 15: at Seattle Seahawks (8:25 PM, NBC): L 42-6 (4-10)
WEEK 16: vs San Francisco 49ers (4:25 PM, FOX): W 27-24 (5-10)
WEEK 17: vs Arizona Cardinals (4:25 PM, FOX): L 34-21 (5-11)
Goff or Wentz will not help the Rams' problems. Playing Seattle and Arizona twice a year, and adding in the Patriots won't help. 5-11 and a coach firing seems set in stone.
WEEK 2: vs Seattle Seahawks (WHY WIN?)
It seems as if Jeff Fisher always has Pete Carroll's number. In recent years Seattle has struggled, and one year they got swept by the Rams.
WEEK 5: vs Buffalo Bills (WHY WIN?)
Rex Ryan does what Rex Ryan do. With a terrible end to last season, the only thing I like about Buffalo is Tyrod Taylor. Toss-up game is a respectable term to this matchup but the Rams will win anyway.
WEEK 11: vs Miami Dolphins (WHY WIN?)
Adam Gase won't solve Miami's problems. Letting go of Lamar Miller was the worst thing that could happen to them. A below average O-Line and a mediocre Ryan Tannehill gives the Rams the edge.
WEEK 12: at New Orleans Saints (WHY WIN?)
Especially at home, where the Saints should win, won't happen. Their defense won't take a huge step up from last year like they need it to. Gurley rips through this defense easily.
WEEK 16: vs San Francisco 49ers (WHY WIN?)
A season split is a season split!

---NEW YORK GIANTS---
POSITIONS OF NEED:
1. OL
2. LB
3. CB
4. HB
5. TE
ADDITIONS:
FB Will Johnson (from Steelers)
T Byron Stingily (from Titans)
DE Olivier Vernon (from Dolphins)
DT Damon Harrison (from Jets)
ILB Keenan Robinson (from Redskins)
CB Janoris Jenkins (from Rams)
DEPARTURES:
WR Rueben Randle (Eagles)
G Geoff Schwartz (Lions)
DE Robert Ayers (Buccaneers)
S Stevie Brown (Chiefs)
A new coach, even if it's their former offensive coordinator, and many additions will change this team. I'd like to think that the Giants would be as bipolar as they were last season, but if their offensive line isn't upgraded that's going to be the case. Right now they have no running game mostly because of their offensive line, and letting go of Geoff Schwartz wasn't the best of decisions. Randle didn't live up to his hype, but Cruz is still an unknown at this point. Out for 2 years and not retaining Randle? Another bad decision imo. They had a great idea in attacking defensive line in the free agency, but their huge spending is going to come back to bite them in a couple years. When your starting ILB is Jasper Brinkley, you know you have a problem. I've seen many Redskins games, and Keenan Robinson won't be that LB. Outside and inside linebackers are huge needs other than O-Line at this point.

--GREEN BAY PACKERS---
POSITIONS OF NEED:
1. DL
2. WR
3. OLB
4. CB
5. N/A
ADDITIONS:
TE Jared Cook (from Rams)
DEPARTURES:
QB Scott Tolzien (Colts)
DT B.J. Raji (Retirement)
CB Casey Hayward (Chargers)
It's hard to locate Green Bay's needs. They always seem to succumb to the injury bug, especially their O-Line. Battling with Minnesota for first place will be hard, with how I believe that the NFC North will be one of the league's toughest divisions this season. To make the journey from a good team back to a great team, upgrading defense must be the first priority for the Packers.
