Anthems and Protests ---
While we certainly understand the frustration by fans on all sides of the discussion, we have decided to keep the Broncos Country message boards separate from politics. Recent events have brought the NFL to the forefront of political debates, but due to the highly emotional and passionate discussion it tends to involve, we think it’s best to continue to keep politics and this forum separate. Yes, the forum is meant for discussion, but we’d like to keep that discussion to football as much as possible.
With everything going on in our country, it would be nice to keep our complaints and cheers purely related to football here. If you feel passionately, there are plenty of other outlets available to you to express your opinions. We know this isn’t the most popular decision, but we ask that you respect it.
Thank you for understanding.

No, we don't, and I guarantee you Shanahan won't do it either. He is quite happy with taking RB's in the second round or later, as evidenced a couple years ago when he passed up Steven Jackson in the 1st. We can use our first rounders to improve the D-line or add a WR/TE. Quite frankly I am satisfied with taking RB's later on, because after all we got CP in the 2nd round, and that worked out pretty well
TB is too low on our list of needs to invest a 1st rd. pick in. Our cap situation doesn't allow all but one of the following needs to be addressed in FA (which would bbe requisite before drafting a TB)..... DE, DT, WR and TE. In addition, I would list G as a bigger priority than TB, but there is no way I'd draft a G in the 1st rd. either.
The needs of the team and the talent present in this draft will allow the Broncos to get a good RB in the 3rd or 4th round. DE, DT, TE, and WR are all higher needs than RB. THere will be several talented RBs available in the middle rounds. Get the final parts to the defense and then start on the offense. Shannahan has proven that he can work miracles on offense with late round picks, so build the defense and then add the offensive talent.
