RB's: A Few who I think will really fit our team well

[Rich_C]

I was thinking of actually Ryan Malleck at V-Tech for FB/TE, I know Ive said Quayvon Hicks actually he might be a bit more of the type of player we are looking for, a big competitive blocker who very physical with on the run

I am looking more into JP Holtz

I looked at all of these guys and the only decent tape of them I could find was a few runs but mostly catching the ball. Haven't seen much of any of them catching the ball. Blocking was one thing I did not see much of/if at all.

Malleck is a guy who likes to take players out of plays when he blocks, and is very effective at opening up the run game. Watch this years and lasts OSU game.

Hicks was the lead blocker for Gurley and Keith Marshall. He is a double edge sword though because he has a tendency throw his entire body into nearly every block. He hits hard like a LB and opens up holes. Watch the Clemson and So Car games in 2014 and 2013

As for Holtz I haven't seen tape on him much yet to form an opinion but he doesn't seem like a bad receiver. G-tech game was his coming out party last year

Finding a couple RBs late is what I expect, think we really do a good job of this. Just find guys that fit the system, we do not need a workhorse.

This is where we disagree. IMO the Broncos do need a workhorse.

Keep Anderson as the complimentary RB. It would keep him healthier and consistently on the field. Also a solid backup if the primary back gets dinged up.

At least I hope it would work that way.

Does Denver need a bell cow? No, as we can see from our success this season. However, I have no doubt we would prefer to have one, Kubiak said it himself

"I can tell you this, I believe in the (bell cow). And I believe it's up to the player to prove he can do that. Do you need two guys in a season? You are darn right, in this league," Kubiak said Tuesday,*per the Denver Post. "But I think if a guy goes out there and he shows he can play three downs, can protect the quarterback, and can handle it, then he should stay out there."

Does that mean we will go trade, sign, or draft one? No, but let's not pretend like it isn't the preference.

At one point I wanted to trade for Tre Mason, but with 2 years left on his contract, I think drafting a rookie will be the way to go, considering all the high price free agents we need to resign, a rookie 4 years is going to be huge. This draft has to be just as good as the one 4 years ago.

I agree with this 100%. Our drafting this year will likely determine our long-term success for the next 3 years.

no. Who they get to play QB next year will determine that, imo.

I don't see Elway picking a RB in the top 3 rounds, based on that assumption this is who I am impressed with.

Alex Collins out of Arkansas (be nice if you can get their QB too Brandon Allen)

Height is 5' 11" Weight: 215lbs

Example of strong running at the 7'03" mark and 8'10" mark

Examples of his speed at 1'19" and 2'04"

I am going to continue to hope that Kiper is a draft genius and Elliot drops to the Broncos in the first!

If not him the Madden and Hicks combo seems solid. Madden is a very good back. Not great but dependable. He should be a solid professional. At FB I am leaning towards signing a vet FA. Get some experience in the backfield.

I keep looking at Prosise out of ND. Possibly a 3rd rounder. Curious about opinions on him. Seems bit inexperienced at RB but a bit more explosive then many mentioned. Runs hard and seems to make plays.

I just don't think we have any business taking a RB in the first or second round until we get help on the O-Line which is where you want to draft for the O-Line. Fix that and any RB will look good.

Jonathan Williams from Arkansas

223lbs 6'0"

He was injured in the Fall Camp of 2015 so on the bright side he doesn't have that extra year of wear and tear.

Possible sure but if we re-sign Brock or even bring in a halfway decent QB Kubiak's system have shown it can make average QB's look better then they are. Add on to that the fact that we will likely re-sign a good portion of our defense and we have great depth. Overall I think unless we end up with an awful QB we'll be fine.

Love the fact that he's a PR/KR. Gives us an alternative to Bolden who has been hurt. Have to do some more looking into where he is projected to be drafted. As I have mentioned above I really like Dixon and Madden. I hope our FO does as well.
