Specialists (4)

Kicker: Brandon McManus

Punter: Sam Martin, Corliss Waitman

Long Snapper: Jacob Bobenmoyer

There isn’t much to address here and the only position that has any competition, at least currently, is at punter.

Sam Martin would have to really look bad to lose the job to Corliss Waitman but stranger things have happened. The Broncos signed Waitman shortly after the regular season ended but Denver will be his fifth team in the league and he’s likely just around so that Martin doesn’t wear out his league in training camp practices.

Brandon McManus remains one of the better kickers in the league and he still offers the ability to come on for a 60-yard field goal in the thin air of Denver.

Grade: A

Overall Grade

Overall, the Broncos have a solid roster from top to bottom. How it stacks up against the other teams in a loaded division is a fair question to ask and one we likely won’t have a good feel on until those key AFC West battles next season.

Inside linebacker and defensive line could be upgraded but other than those two positions, there isn’t a very long list of stuff to complain about here.
