Who are some Denver Broncos players that could come out of nowhere this offseason to be major contributors to the 2019 roster?

We all love the Shelby Harris success stories, stories of players who come seemingly out of nowhere to make an impact for our beloved Denver Broncos.

Who could write themselves into orange and blue history this year?

The 2019 Denver Broncos are a fun blend of proven veterans, exciting young rookies and second-year players, and a number of guys who are either longshots or on their last shots to prove they can stick in the NFL.

For some, this is a second ‘second chance’. For others, the opportunity to compete with the Broncos this offseason looks like nothing more than that.

As Vic Fangio stated following the Broncos’ tryout at rookie minicamp, these players get the chance to put it on their resumé that they were members of the Denver Broncos at one point in time.

Who is going to take their opportunity from an interesting party story to a, “Sorry, I’m busy on Sundays,” story?

Here is one player for every position group who could be sleepers on the Broncos’ roster.
