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.

Yep. Hope the acquisitions result in the style of football (i.e., predominantly under center, balanced with mix of angle/zone rushing attack w/PAP) I've been waiting for.
Good to see you here again.
Glad to be here again. I doubt I'm overly active but it's nice having the option.
Just finally caught up on free agency stuff. Been away from news for a long bit. Gotta say, this was a GREAT offseason. The thing I don't think a lot of people realize is that we really don't EVER have to worry about cap space.
We got walmart money (which is stupid rich money) We're the richest team in the NFL and it's pretty apparent The Waltons are ok with spending. There are a lot of ways to subvert the cap, most involve converting the cap hit into guarantees that hit up front, not on the cap. We can outspend just about the entire NFL at this point and it's a good feeling.
Love our O-line. If Russ can't get it done this year, he's not going to. He has zero excuses.

Well with the stella list of RT's you posted above that have done us proud LOL, if Mike McGlinchley fails, we might have to consider retiring the RT position permanently, and becoming the first team in NFL history to play with a 4 man offensive line for the rest of our days if RT is cursed for us. Or, perhaps roll with x2 right guards next to each other. A right guard, and an even "more" right guard LOL.
1 centre
3 guards
1 left tackle
Or, tandem tackle over unbalanced. Was used in 2011.
Found another guy who started at Right Tackle since Orlando Franklin. Ty Sambrailo who was drafted 2nd round/number 59 in 2015 as a LT had four starts at RT in 2016. So, between Orlando Franklin and Mike McGlinchey there have been 22 guys who have starts at RT for the Denver Broncos.

22nd time is the charm?
