1) he wont fall that far.
2) We dont need him. Travis Henry will be a beast (providing he isn't injured)
3) Both Mike Bell and Andre Hall would be serviceable backs for the Broncos at this point. We would be wiser to focus on an area of need since there are only a few areas we would need to focus on. Most likely DT, Safety, Wide Recievers, and O-Linemen...

I could see us trading up for a stud safety or defensive tackle prospect.
If we were to take a RB (which we won't), I'd rather stay put and take Jonathan Stewart or Felix Jones as opposed to trading up for McFadden.
IMO, McFadden is not as good as AD or Reggie.

Originally posted by lex View PostNo, McFadden would bring a higher level of assurance that he is suited to play RUNNING BACK as opposed to WR. Bush hasnt proven he is a RB yet.
Say for example, when Denver is on the clock, Kenny Phillips and Darren McFadden are both on the board. I would take Phillips without hesitation. The same goes for Jake Long, Calais Campbell, and Glenn Dorsey.Last edited by Max Power; 08-24-2007, 08:56 AM.

Originally posted by Max Power View PostWell, I think Denver is fine at RUNNING BACK, and McFadden in all likelyhood, will be well out of reach anyway.

When it comes to players like McFadden, they're exceptions to the rule. A guy like Ryan Harris, who was a first-round talent after his junior season regressed as a senior and his stock slipped because of it. (Also a few other reasons, which I won't get my mind going on.) McFadden is a top talent in this draft, regardless of how he plays this year.
The only way he's going to disappoint is if he's seriously injured, and if that's the case - I bet he goes back for his senior season. He's going to get the ball. He'll run it, he'll catch it and he'll produce. Even if he only runs for 1,000 yards - he's still going in the top several selections.
There's a reason why there can be running backs who run for 1,000 yards every year of college and still be mid-round selections. It has to do with talent, and McFadden has it, and his game translates well into the NFL.
Unless he has a catastrophic injury, he is going in the top three to five selections. There are no ifs, ands or buts about it. You can take that to the bank. He's good eight days out of the week.
