Kiko Alonso (ILB)
There may be a temptation to go grab an inside linebacker, after the Broncos struggled to shut down opposing running backs in 2016. The Denver defense allowed over 130 yards per game, and some of those yards can be attributed to the inside linebacking crew.
Brandon Marshall battled injuries all season, and Todd Davis and Corey Nelson are young, but seem to be improving. Kiko Alonso is a very talented player, that could be better than any of those three…if he could get on the field. Alonso has already missed 22 games, in his short four-year career. Signing Alonso might look like an enticing proposition, but the Broncos would be better off saving their money, for someone who will actually be on the field.
