Elam ranks fifth all time with 395 career field goals and sixth with 1,786 points. And for all the concern about Elam's age and declining leg strength, he finished the 2007 season with 15 consecutive field goals and four walk-off, game-winning kicks. |

Elam has been the Broncos' kicker since 1993, making him the team's longest-tenured player.
