Why two returning offensive linemen are quietly key to Broncos’ extreme makeover up front

Earlier this offseason, Sean Payton likened his offensive line room to an episode of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.

The Broncos spent big on the renovation.

They gutted the interior and spent $52.5 million to bring in guard Ben Powers. They reimagined the exterior to the tune of five years and $87.5 million for right tackle Mike McGlinchey. They made smaller moves — some drywall here and some new appliances there — for veteran Kyle Fuller, seventh-round draft pick Alex Forsyth and others.

Of 16 offensive linemen on the current 90-man roster, seven are new since March.
