Ronnie Hillman drawing raves from Broncos coaches

[broncos SB2010]

Yea he's still only 22, still has a good chance to develop and get better. I hope he stays around and gets another chance, but now it's time to prove whether or not he's worth keeping. These were the same reports coming out of camp last year too, when he was #1 on the depth chart.

That #1 on the depth chart was a little hype, imo. Moreno was coming off injury and Ball was a rookie. Only a few people actually believed he was going to be the starting RB in the regular season.

Hopefully he watched Moreno and learned that no matter how bad it looks you can alway rise back to the top. Moreno was a healthy inactive prior to last year, so hopefully Hillman watched and continues to battle back and show why he was picked where he was.

Always glad to give a second chance to players. Even ones like Omar who was approaching the Nate Jones level for me lol.

Still just 22 years old, according to coaches, Hillman is now the clear favorite to enter the season as the #2 at RB. According to Studesville (RB coach) we are finally seeing the Hillman that the Broncos drafted him for. He is making plays on the field in TC... hopefully he can also hold onto the football.

I'm hoping he steps up this year. I watched him in college and was glad we drafted him. He is still very young so lets hope these last 2 years were all developmental stumbling blocks and he becomes the RB I thought he was when he was drafted.

Jeff Legwald also has an article on Hillman chasing a second chance. This sounds optimistic that Hillman can contribute to the offense greatly this season. We do need a back that has the all out speed to take it all the way. Hillman was billed as that coming out of college. Again, I hope he can hang onto the football!
