Matt Paradis has come a long way from where he was when the 2014 season began. Thought not to be strong enough, he was sent to the practice squad and stayed there during the entire 2014 campaign.
It was not until Gary Kubiak arrived the following year that Matt Paradis would prove just how great of a player he can be for a sixth round draft pick. While competing with Gino Gradkowski for the starting center job, Paradis proved what he could do and impressed Kubiak.
He earned the starting center job. Matt Paradis has not looked back since that day.
