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.

According to Dan Pompei on Cold Pizza this morning, Michigan DT Alan Branch's draft stock is slipping because he has stress fractures in his leg and teams are taking him off their boards completely because they are unsure if he can hold up through a whole season.
Oh wow.. my mind is lost today.. at first I thought- "Our new TE?!?!".. then corrected myself to- "No, that's DANIEL GRAHAM!! Not at all Branch.. Deion then? How does that effect us??"... now I see what you mean. If I were a team interested Id still take a shot at him. With todays medicine there is a lot that can be done.

There's certainly no need to spend a #1 pick on a player who has an injury history that makes him problematic. Even the 2nd round pick is risky unless you're sure he'll recover completely. There were concerns enough about him before this, now I wouldn't take him at all.
I was wondering why nobody mentioned him as a possible 1st round pick for Denver. Now I know why.
This is kind of like when food goes bad --> nobody else touches it and that means if you're interested, its all yours............
Seriously, stress fractures are one of the toughest and most annoying minor injuries to treat. They often don't heal well and can come back to cause chronic problems. If he's falling down the boards, there's a reason for it. Don't think we're smarter than everyone else cuz' usually its not true.....

Toviessi had knee problem if not mistaken. Athletes come back from stress fractures all the time. So while would have reservation I don't know I would be quite as concerned with it. That being said, the all the scouting reports I have read would make more uncomfortable with taking Branch.
