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.

If we aren't in a position to get Luck, and we don't like Jones or Barkley, I'd imagine we trade down...
We have so many holes
Very true. I just want to aquire some REAL talent from here on out. No more projects or hopefuls. I want a Stafford or Johnson type guy. Guys that everyone knows will succeed.
We trade back picking up an extra 2nd, and lloyd gets his 30 catches
Round 1- Nick Foles, QB, Arizona 6'5 240
Big, accurate QB who i firmly believe has all the tools to be successful as an NFL quarterback. Some will say this is a reach, i say QB's rise on draft day. (Christian Ponder)
Round 2(a)- Fletcher Cox, DT, Miss St. 6'4 295
The highest rated DT on my board, He has the size/speed/strength combo to be an ultra successful UT. He showcases a very strong bull rush, good swim moves, and even a few spins. Could possibly run in the 4.8's. Watch his game against Kentucky if you haven't seen him play, you will be a believer.
Round 2(b)- Xavier Rhodes, CB, Fla St. 6'2 215
Great size and length for a CB. Does well in the run game and has the speed (low 4.4) to stay with any reciever. A well rounded young corner with lockdown potential.
Round 3- William Vlachos, C, Bama 6'1 294
Key cog on one of footballs best offensive lines, can instantly replace Walton in the starting lineup.
Round 4- Julian Miller, DE, WVU 6'3 268
Bulked up to play DT this year, he can either be used as run stuffing DE or can lose some weight and be a pass rush specialist. I personally would have him drop to about 260 and be a pass rusher because i believe Fletcher Cox can also play strongside DE in sure running situations
Round 5(a)- Jaymes Brooks, OG, VT 6'2 308
Depth for our woeful offensive line
Round 5(b)- Brandon Bolden, RB, Ole Miss 5'11 221
Broke his ankle early in the year and fell down draft boards, but hes healthy now and dropped 115 yards on auburn off of 14 carries. I personally feel as if he can be an every down back because he has great size, and runs fast enough to do well being more than just a bruiser.
Ok, so we trade back. What QBs do you have being available when we select Foles? If Luck, Jones, Barkley, and Griffin III are taken then it isn't that bad. If one of them is available and you chose Foles then yeah that's a horrible pick.

Big, accurate QB who i firmly believe has all the tools to be successful as an NFL quarterback. Some will say this is a reach, i say QB's rise on draft day. (Christian Ponder) I personally like Foles a lot but as it stands right now a little bit of a reach IMO

Could possibly run in the 4.8's. Watch his game against Kentucky if you haven't seen him play, you will be a believer. Not my favorite choice for A DT but I like you dradting a D-line high
Round 2(b)- Xavier Rhodes, CB, Fla St. 6'2 215
Great size and length for a CB. Does well in the run game and has the speed (low 4.4) to stay with any reciever. A well rounded young corner with lockdown potential.CB is a huge need, I like Minnifield better but to each his own...
Round 3- William Vlachos, C, Bama 6'1 294
Key cog on one of footballs best offensive lines, can instantly replace Walton in the starting lineup. I think a solid RT is more of a need but I'll take any linemen given
Round 4- Julian Miller, DE, WVU 6'3 268
Bulked up to play DT this year, he can either be used as run stuffing DE or can lose some weight and be a pass rush specialist. I personally would have him drop to about 260 and be a pass rusher because i believe Fletcher Cox can also play strongside DE in sure running situations Not a dire need but again I'd draft othing but O and D line this draft...lol just me
Round 5(a)- Jaymes Brooks, OG, VT 6'2 308
Depth for our woeful offensive line I'm still looking for a RT but hey O-line is O-line
Round 5(b)- Brandon Bolden, RB, Ole Miss 5'11 221
Broke his ankle early in the year and fell down draft boards, but hes healthy now and dropped 115 yards on auburn off of 14 carries. I personally feel as if he can be an every down back because he has great size, and runs fast enough to do well being more than just a bruiser. Is he a power runner or a speed back....havent seen him play....I want a power back ala a brandon jacobs
Flame away
Great mock I like the positions you drafted...Like everyone else I got players ranked differntly as mentioned in bold...I'm very puzzled by no RT, but to each his own....

I think that Franklin will be our RT of the future, even though i think he'd be better served as a guard. Also, Bolden is a power runner with a good mix of speed. one big injury this year totally derailed his draft position, but ive never heard of him being injury prone other than the broken ankle.
LOL!! Wowza!! Well.. I like Kellen Moore (over Barkley & Jones).. The DL (name slips my mind) and the RB is also a good one.. Gimme more time before testing me like that!!
Here's the order I think they'll get drafted:
1. Nate Potter, LT (I think you have him undervalued in your mock)
2. Shae McClellan DE\OLB- He's my sleeper pick, but had a coming out party against Goergia's LT (whom you have going in the first round) with 2.5 sacks and a bunch of tackles. He might not be much of a sleeper anymore by the time February comes around.
3. Doug Martin- Very similar to Ray Rice.
4. Billy Winn DT- projects well to 3-tech at the next level
5. Kellen Moore
6. George Iloka SS
One other that may or may not get drafted, but I think will utlimately land on an NFL roster as a 4-3 NT is Chase Baker.

Thank you to my grandfather jetrazor for being a veteran of the armed forces!
Still has the same 2 players from last time for the Broncos.
1. Trent Richardson, RB, Alabama
John Fox loves utilizing multiple running backs. Knowshon Moreno can't stay healthy and isn't very good anyway. The Broncos don't have much invested in him (he makes $855,000 next year), so money is definitely not an issue, especially in the new rookie salary structure.
Remember, Fox openly wanted to sign DeAngelo Williams last month. If he was willing to spend tons of money on an aging, injury-prone runner, then he'll definitely consider a better option at No. 9 overall.
2. Ryan Tannehill, QB, Texas A&M
John Elway and John Fox seem to hate Tim Tebow's guts. Even if Tebow flops - and they certainly are doing whatever it takes to make sure that happens in attempt to sway public opinion - I don't think they'll select a signal-caller in Round 1, but picking one here is certainly possible.
3. Fletcher Cox, DT, Mississippi State
Denver's current defensive tackles can't get any sort of pressure on the quarterback. They'll be looking for an interior pass-rushing presence next offseason.

He has Nick Foles going at the end of round 3 to the Packers
Two things. One, yes they aren't getting to the QB, but Bunkley's stopping the run well. Maybe we could get another one apart from him, but we're ok there. Second, Foles to the Packers? I guesd he doesn't think Flyn's gonn stay, but Foles could start for someone. Rodgers is gonna be there for a while, so that won't happen.

Based on the past couple of weeks and the upcoming schedule I feel we might finish worst than the rams redskins Seahawks and cardinals. With that said we might be picking top 5. Also I cant see denver taking Richardson with all of the top corners still on the board. CB is a much much bigger need than RB unless they signed a top free agent at corner. Also I like tannehil in the second. He is the third guy that fits elways description of a franchise QB after luck and RG3. And I don't know much about the third pick.
But he looses a lot of credibility when he makes these dumb statements like "John Elway and John Fox seem to hate Tebow's guts" The guy sounds so sure of himself sometimes.
