2015 NFL Draft Grades After Week 10

Denver Broncos. SHANE RAY. A. <p>The Denver Broncos are a contender that roster-wise, have what it takes to get to the Super Bowl. As a matter of fact, this may be G.M. John Elway’s last run with Peyton Manning at quarterback.  They’re up against the salary-cap too so older players like Manning and Demarcus Ware may be departing.</p> <p>So when outside linebacker Shane Ray fell all the way to No. 23 overall, the Broncos traded up and pounced on him. And Ware, whom Ray will be replacing eventually, is a good mentor for him in the wake of his offseason troubles. But Ware is balling, showing that he still has it, leading the Broncos in sacks here at the 10-game-mark.</p> <p>So Ray is going to have to wait his turn to really show the NFL that he can be a star edge-rusher. Actually, he’s doing that now with the limited opportunities he gets as he has two sacks this season. Ray is showing he’s a player the Broncos should be excited about for the future.</p>. OLB
