Denver Broncos weekly rewind: The undrafted players
The Denver Broncos have a bit of a streak going. Yes, we all get very excited about the NFL Draft but the Broncos have also shown a knack for finding players that went undrafted, and making them contributors. Do you realize that as this team won Super Bowl 50 last season they had five players on the roster that had been undrafted?
