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.

Isn't anyone else concerned about Staley's Senior Bowl performence ?!?...If he has trouble blocking straight 4 man rushes <let Jay Moore come clean>how much of a project does he become ?
Maybe I shouldn't let one game turn me off...but he really stood out,In a bad way

I agree with this and brings questions up about his reliability in pressure games his first year, and about how much development he needs to be able to perform at the NFL level since the LB's, and DE's will be faster and tougher at the next level.
However his athletic abilities will not change which is why he will go in the early second IMO. He is extremely fast for his size and strength and that is appealing to a zone blocking scheme, which is why I could see him landing in Denver. However given that Denver has had considerable success drafting 4th - 7th round Linemen who have consistently produced, I think we can find a good LT on the second day that requires some development if Lepsis will be able to come back next year at full strength. Personally all this talk about a first day OT is a little premature until more info about Lepsis comes out of the woodworks IMO.
However I wouldn't put it past shanny to grab a player like Staley, but yes, his performance in the Senior Bowl did give me pause on Staley.

I think the Broncos should try and acquire Eric Winston from the Texans when and if Jake gets dealt to them. Eric Winston is 6'6 313 and is a former TE from the U.

Comment:
Has a rare combination of size and athleticism. He has a long arms and a wide wingspan. His feet and lateral movement skills are outstanding. He has a quick set in pass pro and almost never gets beat around the corner with pure speed. Is balanced and shows very good body control. A natural knee-bender. Shows the ability to mirror and slide versus the most athletic DE's he's faced. He possesses adequate upper body strength. He has long arms and strong hands to maintain separation. Takes good angles as a run blocker. Has great speed and mobility for his position. Can get downfield quickly as a second-level blocker and shows the consistent ability to hit the moving target. He's a hard worker and a team leader.
Sounds like a perfect fit
Sounds like the Texans have their future stalwart LT.

Actually, his arms are too short. He's likely to be tried at Right Guard this season after bombing at Right Tackle. Charles Spencer is their future stalwart LT.
