How will all the Denver Broncos' roster battles shape the final 53-man squad?
and around the NFL. Before it kicks off into high gear with the practices open to fans on Friday, July 26, let's examine my pre-camp 53-man roster prediciton.
Multiple reports show that Williams and Samaje Perine are battling for one spot. Perine alone costs almost as much as these four running backs combined, and with the Broncos' salary cap position, it will be stiff for him to overcome the business side of it. While many have high expectations for Franklin, he will likely have a more limited role as a rookie due to his play style and the areas where he needs to grow as a player. Johnson has shown to be a capable and reliable receiver when called upon, but he has had issues staying on the field. It was a coin-flip between Johnson and Lil’Jordan Humphrey for the final spot, which can quickly go the other way.For now, Trautman leads the group because of injury and development questions.
Sam Mustipher has experience, but his play as a starter has been among the worst center play in the NFL. Forsyth has chemistry with Nix, and Wattenberg has positional versatility, giving them the edge over Mustipher, who was the 55th player and could make it instead of Adkins.Zach Allen | John Franklin-Myers | D.J. Jones | Malcolm Roach | Matt Henningsen
Smith beats out Justin Strnad and Levelle Bailey for the final spot. Smith is a good special teams player and adds capable depth on defense. Strnad has never developed defensively, and Bailey has no experience.Patrick Surtian II | Riley Moss | Ja’Quan McMillian | Levi Wallace | Kris Abrams-Draine | Damarri Mathis
