Broncos Shrine Bowl Prospects to Watch: West Team
As the Denver Broncos look to improve the roster, the team is in a bad salary cap situation. That makes it harder to enhance the roster through free agency.
The NFL draft becomes even more important for the Broncos.
One of the first steps of the draft process is the Shrine Game. While the Broncos don't have a coach on the East Team as they do on the West Team (QBs coach Davis Webb), they still can learn much about these prospects.
Let's examine the key names on the East Team.
Quarterback
Running Back
Wide Receiver
Tight End
Offensive Tackle
Interior Offensive Line
Interior Defensive Line
Edge
Linebackers
Cornerbacks
Safety
- Daijahn Anthony: Ole Miss
- Omar Brown: Nebraska
- Jaylon Carlies: Missouri
- Marcellas Dial: South Carolina
- Kenny Logan: Kansas State
- Trey Taylor: Air Force
Carlies is a box safety who doesn't have much range. It wouldn't be surprising if the conversation of bulking him up and making him a full-time linebacker is prevalent during the draft process.
Both teams have some good prospects for the Broncos to dig into during the week. While a lot of time is left until the draft, first impressions can mean a lot.
