No. 8 – James Ferentz
There’s something to be said about being the forgotten member of an offensive line. Ferentz is easily forgotten because the guy playing in front of him, so far, has been serviceable – if not solid.
As the backup to Matt Paradis at center, Ferentz will remain on the sidelines as long as Paradis is healthy. Denver has done a good amount of shuffling at that position basically since Peyton Manning arrived, but appears to have its long-term guy in Paradis.
Ferentz is a first-year player the Broncos claimed off waivers to replace Gino Gradkowski, who was proving to be an expensive backup.
