One very underrated free agent for the Broncos in 2020 that I hope gets kept is safety/nickel back Will Parks.

The Broncos seem to have found a pure nickel corner for the future in Duke Dawson, but what about that safety hybrid? How about a player who could learn from Kareem Jackson and take over when his time is up?

Shyheim Carter plays the safety/linebacker position for the Crimson Tide and has been shutting things down in coverage while playing aggressively against the run.

He has 16 pass breakups over the past two seasons and had two pick-sixes a year ago for the Tide.
