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.

Anyone heard about this guy, Andrew Bain out of The U, he is an OG.
nfldraftcountdown has him listed at 6'3" 344 lbs and running a 5.15 40.
If he manages to do that at the combine I could see his stock rising like crazy.
What have you guys heard/seen about this guy?

So is he a year removed from football?
With that evaluation I do not understand why nfldraftcountdown has him near the bottom of their OG list.
Anyway it sounds like Shanny's man: athletic (assuming he runs a 5.15) and bigger than a usual Bronco lineman.
Its probably the direction Shanny should go. Quick and athletic, but sacrifice for a little more size.
That is the direction he wants to go. He has stated before (last year I think) that the line is small because they place athleticsm has higher priority than bulk. So this is the type of player Shanny is looking for, allegedly.
On a side note, I did not see his name on the combine invite list so hopefully we will see what he can do at Miami's pro day.
Untill the combine all the times on draftcountdown are estimates. Just variations of .05. Does sound like one of those late round picks on the o-line that Shany would like.
