Conclusion

The Denver Broncos defensive line could be the most underrated position(s) on the defense, but they can make some noise when needed. This position in camp will be something to pay close attention to, especially with Malik Jackson gone and the question on if Sylvester Williams can repeat his 2015 performance.

While not a lot of well known names are on the defensive line for the Denver Broncos, this unit does not need a big name to be known. I foresee this unit have another solid year with Derek Wolfe taking over an becoming a force.

Most of the questions surrounding this defensive unit will be answered during training camp. But I am certain that Bill Kolar will shape this unit to become one of the best lines on defense in the entire league. It won’t be easy losing a key piece to the line, but if there is anyone that can do it, it is the man who can wrestle with a bear.
