The Rest (of the UFAs)
Jared Crick, DE
The Broncos could very well keep Jared Crick around for another couple of years. He’s going to be inexpensive coming off of a season-ending injury, and he was looking much improved prior to that injury having added some weight and strength at the point of attack.
Crick was a starter for the Broncos all of 2016, and with Derek Wolfe’s health also a question mark, this could be a valuable veteran player to have around as insurance. I would re-sign him, but I think the chances of that happening are about 50-50 at this point.
Billy Winn, DE
Winn is sort of in the same boat as Crick. He is 28 going on 29 this April, so he may have a few good years left in him. He also showed some versatility for the Broncos, emerging as their no. 2 nose tackle prior to his injury.
Like Crick, Winn is a veteran guy that could be had for a low price. I would consider bringing him back if the price is right.
Billy Turner, OL
Whether the Broncos tried him at guard or tackle, he just wasn’t good enough. I don’t think he will be back next year for them.
Allen Barbre, OL
See: Billy Turner.
Corey Nelson, LB/ST
Nelson was a valuable backup and special teams player for the Broncos, but I don’t think they have enough confidence in him to bring him back as a full-time starter at linebacker. He may sign in Denver or somewhere else on the cheap, but I think his role in the NFL is pretty clearly defined, and he will continue to excel at it.
