Best fits: Denver Broncos, Arizona Cardinals, New England Patriots

Prediction: Arizona Cardinals

After spending the last two years stuffing the run with the Denver Broncos, Domata Peko has proven he’s aging quite well as an interior defensive lineman.

Playing the nose tackle position and primarily as a part-time player, Peko will undoubtedly get looks from a number of teams and I think one logical fit is with Vance Joseph in Arizona.

Peko would probably love to come back to Denver as well, and there could be mutual interest there, but at the right price.

The Patriots have a couple of run-stuffing defensive tackles hitting free agency this year in Malcom Brown and Danny Shelton, so they could be another option for the veteran Peko and a decent option if he’s chasing that ring.

Ultimately, I think the Cardinals offer him the best opportunity to play right away and they have familiarity for him on the coaching staff, but all of these options are strong.
