In 1997 the Denver Broncos were coming off one of the most disappointing playoff losses in team history. In the draft that year they would have the 28th pick and use it on a defensive tackle. That DT would go on to be one of the best defensive players in Broncos history.
Trevor Pryce joined the Denver Broncos as a rookie in 1997, and what an incredible time to join the franchise. The team was about to recover from that awful playoff loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars, and go on to win back-to-back Super Bowls.
