Cameron Jefferson, OT

Jefferson was waived by the Bears in late August, and the Broncos added him to their practice squad in December.

The Broncos list Jefferson as a tackle, but he can also play inside at guard.

Kyle Roberts, OT

Roberts was among the Broncos’ original UDFA class coming out of Nevada last year. He’s got quick hands and good length for a tackle, but some say he struggles at times adjusting to speed.

He spent all of last season on the practice squad, and developing within this Broncos offense.

Robert Myers Jr., OL

Myers was the 176th pick of last year’s draft, and the Broncos scooped him up after he jumped from the Ravens to the Colts’ practice squad.

As far as talent goes, this guy has plenty, but he needed some time to develop in a system. The Broncos signed him in December off of Baltimore’s practice squad, and he could figure into the team’s plans this year as a backup guard.
