My grades
QB: B (Jake has the ability to grade out higher, BVP can win a couple in a crunch)
RB: A+ (talented and deep)
WR: B (solid 2 with a cluster of upside behind)
OL: C+ (starting 5 is good, but then what?)
DL B: (CB is the ? Warren and Engelberger can elevate grade)
LB A: (Top 3 outstanding, but no true starting quality behind them)
CB B+ (Huge upside here based on how rooks do)
S: C (No real playmakers back there. Weakest group on D)

I'm going on what I've seen in preseason games and heard from the illustrous Kaylore and others who've reported from camp.
QB: B to B+ Jake has played grreat, lets see it continue. BVP has made strides, although I don't think he's ready for prime time I at least have hope, which is tons more than I could say seeing DK line-up in Jakes stead.
RB: B+ to A Mike has had solid performances. And Bell looks steady. Dayne has been a pleasant surprise and a good back out of the backfield. But the Broncos have yet to face a strong defense.
WR: B I'm forecasting a great year for Ash and Rod. They're both playmakers.
OL: C- I'm not sold on Cooper nor do I like having a meager 7 players to work between. I can see them manhandled by bigger units. I've got to worry about something.
DL: B to B+ When (not IF) they become more consistent, they'll move up to "A".
LB: B to B+ Again consistency and gelling with the DL could move them up a letter grade.
CB: ???? Until I see Champ play I'll reserve judgement. I don't want to have to let DWill learn by "trial with fire" covering the oppositions best or second best. That's usually a bumpy road. And Walls needs to prove his health.
S: C+ to B I think Lynch is still fine and Fergy is a quality guy, he can cover well enough. I think that Marques Anderson is a good player and I don't understand why Oaks let him go. He's played well in the preseason finale.

Marques requested to be let go. I cant find link, but it was at the Denver home page. c+ is a good grade, but could move up if the DL plays well. Lynch can only play better if the ball comes out quicker.
