DeMarcus Ware
Everybody loves DeMarcus Ware, and the Broncos would keep him around for a lifetime if they could, but with his contract coming to an end this offseason, it just doesn’t make much sense for Denver to re-sign him, especially if he’s looking for a long-term deal.
Ware remains a fantastic pass rusher, but he’s 34 years old and injury prone, neither of which are exactly qualities you’d be looking for when signing someone to a new contract.
Plus, the Broncos already have his heir(s) apparent in Shane Ray and Shaquil Barrett.
This team is going to have plenty of holes to fill up over the Summer, and pass rush isn’t one of them. The salary used on Ware might be better used almost anywhere else.
Now, if Ware were willing to take a major discount to stay in Denver, I’m sure the Broncos would be happy to make it work.
