The Denver Broncos signed defensive tackle Phil Taylor, formerly of the Cleveland Browns.
The 21st overall pick in the 2011 draft, Taylor flamed out of the NFL last season due to chronic knee problems, in addition to on-field ineffectiveness. He's kept himself in shape working out for the Baltimore Ravens, Minnesota Vikings and Pittsburgh Steelers since his September 2015 release. Turning 28 years-old in April, nose tackle-sized Taylor is a worthwhile flier for Wade Phillips' 3-4 defense.
Taylor has only played 44 games out of a possible 80 in his career. Still, he provides interesting depth in this defensive unit as a run-stopper. He has 109 total tackles and 7.0 sacks in those games and joins a Broncos unit that ranked first in the league in Adjusted Defensive Net Expected Points (NEP) per play in 2015.
