Denver Broncos: Who are the most underpaid players on the roster?

The Denver Broncos have several players on the roster who are playing under some very team-friendly contracts.

Just days after failing to come to terms on a long-term deal with safety Justin Simmons, many fans are upset with the front office for letting that happen. But football is a business and the hope is that a deal will eventually get done.

Not all players have to get that big bank bag every season though, and that’s not to say that Simmons doesn’t deserve it. He absolutely does.

Fans of professional football are often people who also look at most athletes as people who are grossly overpaid, particularly in consideration to their own living wages. That is what makes the guys who don’t make as much money and don’t make public any of their contract demands so much easier to appreciate.

The Broncos have a few of those guys.

The players on this list are players that have become key pieces of the team without garnering huge salaries and strapping the team in other areas. This list will also illustrate the importance of hitting on talented undrafted players.

While it’s always easy to shine the light on the players who make the most or the players who are overpaid for what they do on the field, here, it’s all about the guys who produce more than their pay would suggest.
