OFFENSIVE LINE
Made Roster: Russell Okung, Max Garcia, Matt Paradis, Darrion Weems, Donald Stephenson, Ty Sambrailo, Michael Schofield, Connor McGovern, James Ferentz
The Broncos kept nine offensive linemen, though some thought they might keep 10 with Dillon Day among the final cuts.
This is a unit whose third group was absolutely atrocious for the Broncos throughout the preseason, which isn’t a surprise, but it’s a disappointment in terms of not really getting a clear picture of what other players on the offense can do.
The Broncos’ starting five — including Darrion Weems — was pretty well set prior to the end of the preseason, but Ty Sambrailo’s elbow injury sort of leaves things in limbo. With offensive guard Josh Sitton being released by the Green Bay Packers, the Broncos have the open funds to make a move there and upgrade the RG spot for a few years at least.
If the Broncos don’t go after Sitton, I would be surprised. We saw them make a late run last offseason at Evan Mathis, who wound up being a pretty good player for this football team when healthy. Sitton is a veteran at 30 years of age that could come in and start for this team and be an asset right away.
