Defensive Line

1st String: Derek Wolfe, Sylvester Williams, Vance Walker

2nd String: Adam Gotsis, Darius Kilgo, Jared Crick

The Broncos no longer have Malik Jackson, a key piece of their defensive front, but Vance Walker was among the league’s best last year in run defense, and both veteran Jared Crick and rookie Adam Gotsis should figure into the rotation rather quickly.

Wolfe is a star, averaging a sack per game over the last two months of the year in 2015-16, and Sylvester Williams had somewhat of a breakout season in 2015.

The Broncos are incredibly deep along the defensive line, and have one of the best position coaches in the NFL — Bill Kollar — to bring up the youngsters while getting the best out of veterans like Walker and Crick.
