5-6 seems reasonable. Trouble justifying anything more imo. But it's hard to say for sure. The fact that he always starts and never calls in sick is probably worth more if we are analytical about it.

I think this is one of Elway's most overlooked failings as a GM because we have little OL depth. I also think it's funny that we'll make a big move for an injury prone RT while scoffing at Paradis for his ailments.
Reed is a stiff.

At least 1 year too soon. Hopefully at least 2 years.
We can't keep having a revolving carousel in the coaching staff. That is just not how winning teams keep winning.
Admittedly Vance Joseph was way in over his head, but Fangio clearly isn't. Despite some derpy coaching decisions like the decision to go for 2 up 6 against the Chefs, Fangio has made basically sound personnel decisions, and his defense is currently a top 10 defense in the NFL (currently ranked 8th in ppg at 18.9).
The offense is putrid, but that's because the Broncos haven't got a franchise QB and no offensive weapons that anybody fears outside of Courtland Sutton. Their TEs as a group have been miserable and invisible outside of the one Noah Fant TD run.
I don't think you can blame Fangio for Elway's horrible personnel decisions -- like all the QBs he's selected, or giving 1 billion $ to RT Juwann James and Mr. Invisible Bryce Callahan or the decision to draft Bolles, or Paxton Lynch or a bunch o' other stiffs in the first and second rounds.
But, is there really all that much talent? Basically Fangio is taking cast-off and backup players and little regarded FAs like LB Malik Reed, NT Mike Purcell, DE Shelby Harris, and ILB Alexander Johnson and turning the defense into a tough hard nosed group.
If Denver's offense was a good as this defense, they would be leading the division, but you need a QB for that. And Fangio can't manufacture one out of thin air!
I don’t disagree with the coaching staff, I disagree with Reed being a talent that is developing and producing. That might still happen, he’s bound to get to the QB with all the snaps he’s getting, but he’s producing nothing so far and is far from talented. He’s a “coaches favorite”.
Hollins should be starting in his place.
OLB should be high on the list of priorities in 2020.
