“They’re exactly why you don’t judge actual NFL teams by their fantasy football value,” Davis wrote of the Broncos. “Denver arguably has the league’s best offensive line and defense. Who needs Bo Nix?”
Elsewhere in the AFC West, the Kansas City Chiefs are ranked No. 3, the Los Angeles Chargers are ranked No. 18 and the Las Vegas Raiders are ranked No. 27.
The Tennessee Titans, who the Broncos will host in Week 1, are ranked No. 29.
The Philadelphia Eagles, the league’s defending Super Bowl champions, are ranked No. 1. The New Orleans Saints, projected to be the NFL’s worst team in 2025, are ranked No. 32. View the full power rankings on USA TODAY.
