After trading away star outside linebacker Von Miller earlier this week, the Denver Broncos are now ranked No. 22 in Nate Davis’ latest NFL power rankings for USA TODAY Sports. That’s down two spots from their No. 20 ranking last week.
Here’s is Davis’ commentary for Denver’s rank:
End of an era with a saddened Miller departing Denver. But the draft picks he returns – a second- and third-rounder next year – could be the currency Broncs need to make a run at (once again) addressing the quarterback position in a more significant manner.
The Broncos are the lowest-ranked team in the AFC West, behind the Los Angeles Chargers (No. 10), Las Vegas Raiders (No. 11) and Kansas City Chiefs (No. 14). The Dallas Cowboys, who will host Denver this week, are ranked No. 5.
The Los Angeles Rams (Miller’s new team) are ranked No. 1 and the Detroit Lions are ranked No. 32. To view the complete NFL power rankings entering Week 9, visit USATODAY.com.
