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.

Just say no on WR in the first. Please go defense. McClain and/or Cody/Dan Williams. If they trade down then maybe take a Iuputi but Im also not so sure Asomoaga isnt a better value in the 2nd or 3rd.
But just say no on the WR. Guard is actually a bigger need.
I agree with you. I like the McClain pick if he is there with the #11 but if not trade down and go with something along the line of my draft wish list.
At #10, you take the best playmaker available. To me, that is going to be Dez Bryant. And he would help our team dramatically. Right now, I believe the draft will unfold thusly:
1. St. Louis - QB Jimmy Clausen
2. Detroit - DT Ndamukong Suh
3. Tampa Bay - S Eric Berry
4. Washington - QB Sam Bradford
5. Kansas City - LB Rolando McClain
6. Seattle - OT Russell Okung
7. Cleveland - CB Joe Haden
8. Oakland - OT Bruce Campbell
9. Buffalo - DT Gerald McCoy
I'm not sure who else Denver would take at this point other than Dez Bryant. Derrick Harvey is the best defensive player available, but he might not transition to OLB, and if Jax wins the coin toss, they'll pick him if they don't take Tebow. Bryant is the best offensive player, and best player overall. Trading down is an option, and then someone like Odrick comes into play.
Alot of folks believe McClain and Haden will make it to #10 or #11, depending on where we pick. I don't think either does. With those two gone and Cameron Heyward staying in school, I think Dez is the best available player at a position of need.
I agree with the BPA stance...however I'm not sure how Josh will play this. I believe the greater need is on the defensive side of the ball (upfront to be specific). So if we can trade down and still get a NT or DE we like I'm good with that.
Thx,
Joe
To live is to suffer, to survive is to find meaning in the suffering.
Out of the 5 to 6 mock drafts I have seen only one has denver taken dez bryant in the 1st round.
The 1st two rounds are going defense, NT,DE(pass rusher) or ILB and not in the order. Is that the consensus around here?
Can we all agree these are priorties as of right now?
Yeah - We all know how accurate last year's predicters were ??? Then they had to ridicule the Broncos to justify their lack of understanding.
BPA who fits their criteria or trade down makes the most sense based on last year and McDaniels current commentary

I though McD said himself that they are actually scouting. Because last year everything was so hectic they did BPA. We have more needs to fill the trenches than anything, so I don't see how we draft an Offensive player.
denver has the potential to make this defense very stoudt. We can fill some holes with some very good players and we could be very scary if drafted properly.
L O L @ rest of you. Seriously did you read MUG's post real close? Obviously not.
MUG, my friend. Derrick Harvey was drafted by Jacksonville in 2009.
I am more than positive you meant Derrick Morgan from Georgia Tech.
as to the rest of yall Draft Gurus
Winner Winner Chicken Dinner!
Whoops, you're right. I'm sure everyone knew whom I was referring to though. Harvey has been a little bit of a topic of debate here as of late as to whether he's a bust or not. He's on my brain.

This. If McClain is gone when we pick, we should look at taking Cody (especially if we can trade down and do so), and then with a later pick take Brandon Spikes. Spikes isnt as good against the run as McClain but he's really good at pass rushing and playing the ball. He deflects a lot of passes when blitzing and he intercepts a lot of passes near him. Id rather have McClain but taking a run stuffer like Cody who can help against the run and then a ILB like Spikes wouldnt be so bad.
I know a lot of people boo hoo on Cody because he doesnt play every down but if you can get a guy who can clamp down the run on 1st and 2nd down, that has huge value. If having Cody on the field on 1st and 2nd down leads to a 3rd and long, its kind of like he never left the field.
