Broncos Trade Janovich for a 7th.

An early sign that the players will have to adapt to the system, rather than building a system to fit the strengths of the players?

I can see both sides of this one. Although he did provide a boost to the run game, as well as contribute on special teams, he was also injured frequently and destined to be used less under Shurmur.

If an NFL OC is planning to use mostly 11 personnel formations, there isn't a place on the roster for a Fullback. If that OC uses a few 21/22 personnel formations, he puts a player of another position at Fullback. Having Andrew Beck gives Pat Shurmur a guy who can line up at Fullback, Y or H-Back and can play on the four main STs (P, PR, KO, KOR) Andy Janovich might have ended up being released, so trading him to a team needing a true Fullback did him a favor.

True. He might not be a better 'pure' FB than Jano, but he's an incredibly versatile player.
