50. Mark Jackson

A very popular Wide Receiver for the Broncos during their first three Super Bowl appearances in the late 1980s, Mark Jackson was one of John Elway's "Three Amigos" receiving corps.  Jackson never had a 1,000 Yard season but had five with 700 or more.  Jackson would have 276 Receptions, but his most memorable one would be a game-tying Touchdown in the famous "Drive" against the Cleveland Browns in the AFC Championship Game that took Denver to Super Bowl XXII.  Overall, Jackson would net 276 Catches for 4,746 Yards and 24 Touchdowns.

44. Steve Watson

Steve Watson played his entire career with the Denver Broncos, which would work out to 126 Games over nine seasons, a pretty good number for an undrafted player out of Temple.  The Wide Receiver would have three 1,000 Yard Receiving Seasons, all of which were good enough to get him ranked in the top ten.  The first of those, 1981, would see him earn his only Pro Bowl Selection and lead the NFL Touchdown Receptions with 13.  Watson would catch 353 Passes for 6,112 Yards with 36 TDs.

38. Lyle Alzado

One of the most well-known defensive players of his day, Lyle Alzado was more recognized with the Oakland Raiders but his best years and most extended years were with the Denver Broncos.  With Denver, Alzado would be a First Team All-Pro in 1977, and he was a Pro Bowl Selection that year and the one after.  The Defensive End would notably lead the NFL in Fumble Recoveries in 1972.
