Paradis has been the one constant in Broncos' fluid O-line

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — The Broncos' offensive line has resembled both a carousel and a turnstile. The only constant has been center Matt Paradis, who has played every snap this season.

"He's the rock," left tackle Ryan Harris said of his line mate who was cut in camp as a rookie and spent all of last season toiling on Denver's practice squad for a coaching staff that was loathe to give young O-linemen an opportunity.

Before that, he was a walk-on at Boise State after playing eight-man football at Council High School in Idaho, where he only got a breather on kickoffs.
