Denver Broncos: Evaluating the Exclusive Rights FA’s

Keep

Matt Paradis

The only player on the offensive line who performed well in 2016, Matt Paradis has come a long way. From practice squad to starter, he will be key to re-tooling the offensive line.

This one is a no brainier. The Broncos need to keep him.

Shaquil Barrett

When Demarcus Ware was hurt during the Broncos’ Super Bowl run, Shane Ray and Shaquil Barrett filled in nicely.

Barrett’s big game during that season was against the Cleveland Browns, when he made his first NFL start. He made a huge hit on Josh McCown that forced a fumble.

It will be interesting to see what happens with Demarcus Ware in a few days, but Barrett will be a solid player for the Broncos in key situations.

Kapri Bibbs

Before being placed on season ending injured-reserve, Kapri Bibbs was playing pretty well. I honestly believe that he was not given a lot of chances and should see some more.

He recorded his first NFL touchdown when he took a screen pass from Trevor Siemian and ran all over the field on his way to the end zone.

It reminded me a bit of the run C.J. Anderson had against the Oakland Raiders back in 2014.

Bibbs has earned more chances to make an impact on the offense.

Jordan Taylor

Who would have thought the wide out known as “Sunshine” would have made such a huge impact in his first year on the final roster?

In the midway point of the season, Jordan Taylor was making moves left and right to get into the end zone. He could very well become a solid option as the third wide out.

I believe there is more to come from Jordan Taylor.
