From the University of Tennessee, Al Wilson would win the starting Middle Linebacker job as a rookie for the Denver Broncos, which would be the only team he ever played for.  Wilson would become known in the NFL for his speed and his ability on the pass rush, and from 2001 to 2006 he was named to the Pro Bowl.  He would also be chosen as a First Team All-Pro in the 2005 season, and at the time of his retirement, he would have 714 Combined Tackles and 21.5 Quarterback Sacks.

Trevor Pryce had to feel happy when the Denver Broncos drafted the former Clemson Tiger as he was on a team that was on the cusp of something special.  Pryce was a member of the Broncos' first two Super Bowl wins, but he came into his own after that success by putting together a four-year streak of Pro Bowl Selections from 1999 to 2002.  Pryce played mostly at Defensive Tackle though he was also used at Defensive End, and he twice had a ten plus sack season.  Before he signed with the Baltimore Ravens in 2006, he would finish his Broncos tenure wi121 Games played and 64 Sacks.

Gary Zimmerman was a member of the All-Time USFL Team and was a four-time Pro Bowler before his trade to the Denver Broncos where he immediately became the leader of the team's Offensive Line.  The Left Tackle arrived in 1993, and he put on a three-year run of Pro Bowl appearances from 1994 to 1996, the last of which saw him named a First Team All-Pro.  He was a large part of the Broncos first Super Bowl win in the 32^nd contest and that leadership helped Denver in countless ways.  He would retire after that championship win.

Demaryius Thomas was a 2010 1^st Round Pick who struggled as a rookie and in his second pro season due to injuries, but he was healthy in his third year where he showed off over the next five years what was expected of him.  Thomas went to the Pro Bowl in 2012 with a 1,434 Years and 10 Touchdown season, and in 2013 he had similar yardage (1,430) with a career-high 14 Touchdowns.  It was another Pro Bowl year, and he would set a then record 13 Receptions in their Super Bowl loss to the Seattle Seahawks.  2014 would see him go to his third Pro Bowl with career highs of 111 Receptions and 1,619 Receiving Yards, but it was 2015, a season where he was not chosen for the Pro Bowl (but still hit 1,304 Receiving Yards) where he won the Super Bowl.  Thomas had his last Pro Bowl in 2016 with his final four digit Receiving Yard campaign.  Before he was traded to the Houston Texans midway through the 2018 season, he finished his career at Mile High with 9,055 Yards for 60 TDs.
