Running Back (4), Fullback (1)

C.J. Anderson, Devontae Booker, Jamaal Charles, De’Angelo Henderson, Andy Janovich (FB)

The running back was a challenging one. I have yet to see Jamaal Charles play this preseason, so I could see this change depending on what he can do against Green Bay.

If Charles is healthy and plays well, I believe that he will make the roster over Stevan Ridley. While Ridley had some good plays against the 49ers, I believe that Charles’ experience gives him the nod.

De’Angelo Henderson has been playing like a man possessed the last two games. He could become a valuable member for the Denver Broncos offense this season.

C.J. Anderson proved to be a solid player in the second preseason game. He looks a lot better. As long as he remains healthy, he gives the Broncos running game a real chance in 2017.

Devontae Booker will be sidelined for a while, but should pick up right where he left off.

As for the fullback, Andy Janovich gets the nod here. While Juwan Thompson could make the roster as a fullback, the crowded backfield makes him the odd man out.
