No. 4- Virgil Green (TE)

The Denver Broncos have been linked to so many tight ends in this year’s draft. This is especially true in the first round.

If that is the route that the Denver Broncos go, one of the tight ends could be on the move. I believe that Virgil Green could be the one.

Green is entering the final year of his contract. And with A.J. Derby and Jeff Heuerman already on the roster, he could find another team.

If the team decides not to go tight end in the draft, then I am certain that Green will stay.

However, his numbers indicate that he has not given the Broncos his full potential. In fact, he’s only recorded 410 yards receiving and two touchdowns.

Those numbers are a bit subpar for him. The plan was for him to be more involved in the offense and he has yet to do so.

It would not surprise me if he was moved at the end of the month.
