4. Kayvon Webster

Since his rookie season, Kayvon Webster hasn’t played as prominent a role as he or many others thought he might. He stepped into action in 2013 when injuries arose, and showed signs of the potential he has in man-to-man coverage. He also showed some of the inconsistencies that most young players struggle with.

The Broncos drafted Bradley Roby and signed Aqib Talib in 2014, pushing Webster to the 4th spot on the depth chart by default. He hadn’t done a whole lot to make a name for himself up until this past season when he started making play after play on special teams.

With Omar Bolden and David Bruton Jr. out for extended periods, Webster emerged as one of the Broncos’ top special teams players down the stretch. As a former third round pick, you tend to let expectations get too high, but Webster is a good football player who has developed some confidence heading into this season.

It will be exciting to see how much he has developed as he enters a contract year already.
