Predicting the 37 roster cuts Broncos will make this week

After wrapping up preseason, the Denver Broncos must now trim the 90-man offseason roster down to a 53-man roster by Tuesday afternoon.

That means the Broncos will have to make 37* roster moves within the next 36 hours. (*Technically, Denver will make 38 roster moves because defensive lineman Haggai Ndubuisi did not count against the 90-man limit as part of the NFL’s International Player Pathway. We have also predicted a 39th cut — kicker Brett Maher — as we project the Broncos to acquire a new kicker before Week 1.)

With cuts now just around the corner, here is our prediction for the 37(+) players who are set to be cut (or traded) in the coming hours.
