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.

I got news for you Grid TD wasn't a starter at UGA he was Hearst's back up.
Where is that is old news, you cant just up and make any RB that couldnt win the starting job in college to be TD. It just doesnt work that way
Just because Bell didnt start doesnt mean he will be great, it actually means he has alot more of a chance to do nothing than be just decent. There is always a chance he will be good, but there is a better chance he wont be.

He has the potential to be sucessful in 2-3 years but all depends on him.
I have to disagree with you West. I really think he is going to be more of a project then anything
It will take him a good 3 years to be a back in NFL. Why I say that is.. Like I mentioned Pre-draft how he would not be drafted or atleast around 7th round.
He does have a lot of potential to be very good in the NFL someday. Someday will not be any time real soon. Let me mention some of the thing I have noticed about this cat. I like Mike Bell and very happy he is a Bronco so I am just listing the negatives and not everything I like about him.
Needs a lot of space to run.
Does not run between tackles very well at all. *
Not tough.. can not say that any more simple then he goes down easy *
DOES NOT KICK THROUGH ARM TACKLES
he plays small
has happy feet in the hole and loses concentration*
bobbles ball to much when defender is in close proximity and has small hands not a good mix which had him to have a lot of Fumble problems in college*
lacks long speed to go the distance.. gets tracked down
not good at blocking*
It's funny, most of the things YOU say he is bad at, experts say he is actually good at. By no means am I downgrading your opinion, it is what it is.
Astertic by the ones where I have read he is good at.

Barry Sanders only started one year in college(Thurman Thomas started ahead of him). Just another example.
Sharing carries doesn't mean he wasn't good enough to win the starting job, it just means the other back was good enough to take carries away from him. Look at LenDale White.
How does it mean he has a lot more chance of doing nothing? He is a PERFECT, down to one or 2 aspects of his game, for this system. I fully believe that he is going to be successful and show that game that I know he has and everyone SHOULD know he has.

Well see West your showing alot of homerism here.
You found 2 examples, both starters were actually pretty good in the NFL, maybe not great but good.
Do i need to name how many 2nd string RB's that didnt even make it to the NFL? Cause i garuntee its a ton.
Its one thing if he is the starter, and looses carries, he wasnt the starter he was the one with LESS carries because the other guy did better
I dont see how someone can be sooooo great and not be drafted at all
It doesnt make a bit of since. Why should i believe he is great, show me something that proves he is great....
Why he isnt, Nburdis's reasons followed with NOT good enough to start in college, no team wanted to draft him, and he hasnt turned any heads yet......

Gridiron, teams didn't draft him because HE didn't want teams to draft him. He told teams to not draftt him so he can be picked up by the Broncos. He is a 4th round talent, that is what the scouts said about him before the draft. It is his fault he wasn't drafted and frankly i'm GLAD he wasn't. What another man's(team's) trash is another man's(team's) treasure.
I can not tell you how great he is because the greatness he has is only for this system. I can only tell you to always keep an eye out for him when he proves ALLL of you wrong.

Dude, your so far up his rear i dont think you can see he has proven the same as i have for the NFL.........NOTHING
If he was so great teams wouldnt pass just "because" he wants to play somewhere else, look many RB's were taken after the 4th round and if he was so great he would have been taken.
I guess he can be the next almost as good as TD, but you need to relize its more likely he just another 1-2 year wonder at best. Like i said thats just more likely not garunteed
You know, it's funny that you fellas claim Bell was never the starter and I have here the team stats for last year in front of me. It seems as though BELL was the starter, he has played all 4 years and 3 of those years he has gone over 900+ yards rushing. HE WAS THE STARTER! I have no idea WHERE IN THE BLOODY HELL yall got he wasn't the starter from.

I never told you he was second string. That post clarifies nothing as far as him being second string. GC, you can't backpedal out of this one, you're sunk in quicksand, I owned you. SAY IT!
