Roster evaluation in the NFL is a non-stop process and the Denver Broncos could still be a team looking at making more moves before and after the NFL Draft. 

When free agency was about to being with the start of the new league year, the Broncos had nearly $40 million in available cap space. That number has been dropped down to a shade over $14 million after taking on Russell Wilson, Randy Gregory and DJ Jones.

But the Broncos do still have some holes to fill on this roster and they may not be able to do that entirely through the draft at the end of this month.

For all general managers, finding ways to create more spending money is a never-ending job and that is of course the case for George Paton. So how could he create some more cap space with his current roster?

There are actually not many options at the current moment and to be clear, this is not a suggestion of what the team should do, but what it could do if more spending money was needed.

Here are three players the Broncos could move on from before the start of the 2022 season.
