Brandon Marshall
Similar to C.J. Anderson, Brandon Marshall has set himself up to collect a nice check in the very near future. It only took Marshall 14 games in 2014 to lead the Broncos in tackles (113). That total was also good for 18th in the NFL. Marshall is a former fifth round pick by the Jacksonville Jaguars who struggled in the sunshine state before joining Denver in 2013. Prior to 2014, Marshall had recorded only four total tackles for his career. Linebackers are the second highest-paid position on the defense, with a franchise tag value of $13.17 million. For his services in 2015, the Broncos will pay Marshall $585,000.
