10 toughest cuts on Broncos' projected 53-man roster

[ASFN Admin]

With preseason set to begin for the Denver Broncos on Friday, we published our updated 53-man roster prediction earlier this week.

Denver's front office will have to make some tough decisions when roster cuts arrive later this month, and it wasn't easy for our roster prediction, either.

The list of tough projected cuts on offense included rookie tight end Dallen Bentley (a seventh-round draft pick) and versatile backup offensive lineman Calvin Throckmorton. On defense, it was tough to move on from oft-injured linebacker Drew Sanders, standout undrafted rookie Brent Austin and special teams safety JL Skinner.

Here's the full list of toughest (projected) cuts.

Toughest cuts on Broncos' projected 53-man roster​

1. RB Tyler Badie
2. RB Jaleel McLaughlin
3. WR Lil'Jordan Humphrey
4. TE Dallen Bentley
5. OL Calvin Throckmorton
6. OL Matt Peart
7. OLB/LB Drew Sanders
8. LB Lavelle Bailey
9. CB Brent Austin
10. S JL Skinner

Any of these players could prove us wrong and end up on the active roster this summer. The battle for roster spots will heat up when preseason kicks off on Friday evening (view Denver's full preseason schedule).
