On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey and Andrew Mason break down why the Broncos could not pass on Kage Casey in the fourth round — even while gambling that Justin Joly would still be on the board later. Kasey was simply too talented, too versatile, and too clean a scheme fit to ignore. Denver sees Casey as a true OL hybrid — a player who can line up at tackle in a pinch but may ultimately project as a powerful, athletic guard in Sean Payton’s system. And that raises the big question: is he the future replacement for Ben Powers. With Powers’ contract structure and age, the writing might already be on the wall. Casey’s intelligence, anchor, and movement skills give him a real shot to start as early as 2027 — or even sooner if injuries or competition open the door. This pick wasn’t just about depth. It was about succession planning. 🔥 In this episode: Why the Broncos couldn’t pass on Kage Casey at 108 How his versatility shapes his long‑term role — guard or tackle Whether he’s the heir apparent to Ben Powers Why Casey could push for a starting job as early as next season What this pick says about Denver’s evolving offensive line philosophy A forward‑thinking pick with real upside — and OBT breaks down every angle.
