Some of these players I heard more than a few times from various sources, scouts, etc. A lot of them were on a website, which a friend found and for some reason wasn't working for me, but allegedly, these are some of the people Denver talked to, or showed interest in at the Senior Bowl down in Mobile, etc. It's a pretty decent list, I'm just sad to see that guys like Bunkley and Kiwanuka are not on there. A lot of solid prospects though.

Enjoy.

[SoCalBronco]

You can add Greg Blue to that list.

[Requiem]

Yes, he is one player I haven't added yet. I'm sure that there are tons more, but from that list, it seems pretty encouraging. I'd like to see some more pass rushing DT's and DE's though, but overall that's not a bad list. However, I don't think it's a be all end all list. I'm sure there will be plenty more after the scouting combine is completed.

I just thought it'd be nice to post. :)

[SpringStein]

How many players, after being drafted by Denver, claimed to be surprised because they had never heard from the Broncos? Happens pretty often, so I wouldn't put too much credibility in who the team has interviewed.

[SoCalBronco]

Curious to see DeMeco Ryans and Rocky McIntosh on the list.

That could mean Gold is on the way out, nice.

Marcedes Lewis doesnt surprise me. I read today that the team still hasnt given Putzier "any indication" on whether they are going to in fact give him the 1.5 million bonus due to him on March 3rd....

[Clockwork Orange]

The fact that they haven't talked to Kiwanuka could be a good thing. They didn't talk to DJ Williams either before they drafted him.

I'm pretty high on both of them, but I doubt it is any indication that Gold is going anywhere. He's locked up, long-term. I think McIntosh has a lot of potential, and could go as high as mid-second rounder. Following a strong line of backers like DJ and Vilma certainly helps the pedigree, but I would be thrilled to see him picked by the Broncos. We have quality starters, but really need depth at LB badly.

95% of the time they are surprised.

Rocky isnt backup material. He's starter material. You noted he could be a mid 2nd. I think after the combine/pro day, he will solidify himself in the early to mid 2nd. You dont pick a guy that high to be a backup. If there is real interest there, one of the OLBs is on the way out. Good. Rocky has alot of talent, he just needs some more work on fundamentals and needs to stay healthy more often.

That's exactly what I was thinking, George. It's a shame to take all these guys off the list. ;D

[Clockwork Orange]

The Broncos got my hopes up last year when they interviewed Antrel Rolle. Though you'll never hear me complain about them trading out of the first round, I was very high on him and would have loved to see them find a way to land him.

[SpringStein]

Shanny said he was one of the 5 guys they were targetting at 25 last year when they released the info after the trade. How they could have reasonably expected him to be anywhere near there is a mystery, but the interest was real, apparently. IIRC, they had Rolle, the Nebraska corner that Oakland selected, Matt Jones, Carlos Rogers (i believe) and one other guy I cant remember as their key targets.

Thank God we traded out of the first entirely, given that we would have ended up with the Nebraska corner and D-Will prolly would never have been a Bronco.

I'm not sure he's a starter right away, but he definitely has the potential. Which is why he'd be solid depth, until maybe he was able to become a starter for us. *shrugs* You never know though.

The Nebraska corner you're thinking of is Fabian Washington and the Broncos wouldn't have got him since the Fade traded up to 23 to get him.

None of those guys were there at 25, thank goodness Dan Snyder came to the rescue. ;D

[Requiem]

I cannot remember the other player either, I know we had a lot of interest in Khalif Barnes though.

[Clockwork Orange]

I cannot remember the other player either, I know we had a lot of interest in Khalif Barnes though.

I know that they liked Vincent Jackson a lot too. They were hoping he'd fall to their first pick in the 3rd round, but the Bolts got back at us for stealing their guy in the 2nd round and grabbed him.

[Requiem]

Yeah, that's just the draft though. I'm crossing my fingers for atleast one of the guys I covet to be a Bronco next year, but I'm not going to get my hopes up too high. I mean, I sat around all day waiting to hear the Broncos first day picks and they take three corners in a row. Couldn't be more pleased with two of them, and Paymah could develop into a fine player as well.

I'm preparing to be shocked though, as it seems like I am every year when Denver picks.

I also fully expect to be shocked at least a couple times during the draft.

Not a chance SoCal and I am still going to find a way for you and him to get together for dinner to kiss and makeup.

Broncs will be looking in the mid rounds for a BU LB to replace Preditor or Green, but the starters are set and played much better than you and others give them credit.

A couple of guys I really like in the 3-4 round area are Anderson the DE from Alabama and Orr the WR from Wisconsin.

No way we select a backup LB till Round 5 at absolute earliest even then. Way, way too much talent in this draft to blow one of those 2 (or 3) 4ths on a backup LB, even one who could later mature into a starter. LB, even LB depth is like the absolute very last ranked need on the board.

Louis Green should be resigned. Dont even think of wasting a pick, even the 6th on a backup LB. Maybe bring in a few UDFAs. This draft is too deep to dick around with.

Only time you even think of LB is if you have a deal in place to trade one of the OLBs. Otherwise, I wouldnt even bother thinking LB until UDFA offers.

[Requiem]

I have to agree with Big Guy. There is virtually no chance that we're getting rid of Gold. He has a pretty big contract. I definitely think we'll be drafting some linebacking depth in the mid-rounds, perhaps as early as round three. I'm thrilled with our starters, but we are in dire need of capable back-ups if we'd be so unfortunate to have a starter go down.

I'm thinking of guys like Nicholson (third rounder IMO) or day to guys like Nande, Iwuh or Gaither for some insurance. Jon Alston from Stanford could be a possibility too.

[Requiem]

SoCal, this depth is loaded at LB, we could get great talent later on due to the overall depth.

[Requiem]

I think rounds 3-5 are perfect times to look for a backup at LB.

[SoCalBronco]

SoCal, this depth is loaded at LB, we could get great talent later on due to the overall depth.

I dont disagree with that and you made a good example with Nicholson in the 3rd which is where he may fall due to character concerns. That would be a great addition in the abstract, but not for us in our context, given that we are already way overinvested in the LB position. I dont believe we have the luxury of picking a guy to be a backup LB in the 3rd round. Thats way too high. Even the 4th is way too high. There is just too many talented players in this draft and our needs are greater at every single other position on the field. Id go for Kevin Simon in the 5th though if he is still there. Id be totally up for that.

[Requiem]

I guess I disagree to an extent. Plus, I think Simon goes higher, if not for the injury history, first day pick easy.

[SoCalBronco]

I guess I disagree to an extent. Plus, I think Simon goes higher, if not for the injury history, first day pick easy.

thats why I hope we can snag him in the 5th, but he'll prolly go in the early 4th or so. If we can resign Louis Green, we dont need any LBs period, in the draft or through UDFA contracts. We can also sign Sykes from off the street and he would be a fine backup LB. No need to invest any real resources.

[Ratboy]

I don't care if Ian stays, I just want DJ back at weakside.

[Lestat]

no Vernon Davis? sweet maybe that means he's gonna be the next Bronco, wouldn't mind Leonard Pope either



i really would love to see DJ back on weakside as well but only way that happens is if Gold gets cut & i don't see that happening(+ i like Ian)

Calm down bro, Gold is going nowhere at least for a couple of years.

Only time you even think of LB is if you have a deal in place to trade one of the OLBs. Otherwise, I wouldnt even bother thinking LB until UDFA offers. If the Bronco get a extra comp pick then I could see the Broncos using a 3 round pick on Linebacker. I like both Wilkerson and Mcintosh. Both player can play both mlb and olb and would add a solid backup at both positions.

[Requiem]

Going back on the Broncos site and listening to the prospect profiles of Paymah, Foxworth and Williams (Darrent), they were all surprised that the Broncos picked them. Haha.

[El Guapo]

Gradkowski eh? I know he has no choice (unless he's a 'man' and his last name ends in 'ing') but I heard in an interview once that he REALLY wanted to be a Steeler.

[Billy Clyde Puckett]

Not sure why folk here seem to think the comp picks are throw away picks that can be used to gamble. You don't just throw these picks at some gamble unless you they are really high on your board. You can't waste thse picks any more than you can your regular picks (unless you are the Broncs and get bamboozaled into taking a MoClown)

[Requiem]

I hoep you're not referring to me, because I certainly do not believe that.

[Billy Clyde Puckett]

No - I just see it in posts here pretty frequently. Some folk seem to think if you get a comp pick you can just throw darts with it. They are just as important as any other pick.

[Requiem]

Definitely. It'd be a blessing if we could squeeze out another third for the play of guys like Hayward and Kennedy this year. Hell, maybe two fourths? Ah, I cannot wait. :)

[GoHAM]

I cannot remember the other player either, I know we had a lot of interest in Khalif Barnes though.

Mark Clayton, WR, Oklahoma

Ravens took him at #22.

I agree with you, but you never know with Shanny. If he feels the team is pretty much set we may see some early moves for depth.

[Billy Clyde Puckett]

The Broncos will always pick the top player on their board with ties going to need positions. They weight their board based on their needs but do not exclude players just because they are at positions of strength. If a player they have rated very high at a "non Need" position somehow fell to them they would likely pull the trigger. For example if they have Vernon Davis as number 8 on their board and he fell to 29, even if they are happy with their TEs they would grab him. Same would happen if say they had Bobby Carpenter as number 20 and he fell to their second round pick, they would grab him and find a way for him to play. I suspect this year they have DL, OL and WR over weighted and LB and CB under weighted.

[Paladin]

If one of those QBs listed fell to 5 or so, one of them would likely get picked.

It is always an interesting thing to watch eveyone scout the entire universe and come up with the "perfect pick", and then the Broncos pick someone who was slated to be a third rounder by Mel K. If I remember right, someone said that the Broncos' Brain Trust is a bit above the NFL average in their picks. Don't know about that, but they sure are entertaining.

If we get all these guys it solves our depth problem :)

[watermock]

I'm in that same boat.

Last time I saw anyone get our first pick right was TJ, and "a little birdie told him"...whoever that was...might of been you...all I know is I'm always baffled and pissed off...they seem to be drafting better since Sundy took part of the helm tho...and that idiot D. Gibbs is gone...

I didn't expect us to dump both Walls, Willie M. and Kenoy and Herndon....it's all part of the "Plan" Ha! Looking back it was a good move if we had given up on some other players

[watermock]

Well this narrows it down considerably...to roughly the size of a chinese fire drill...and considering there have been more than one player totally surprised he was picked after not even being talked to...I suggest you put other in there.

Chavous spend more time in the film room scouting players then most coaches and scouts. And he good at it. When hangs them up is going to make a very good personnel man for some NFL team. McNeal is very underrated along with some other players (Whitehurst) out there

Everbody has their own opinions. He does throw a nice ball and can throw on the run, but I don't see him doing much in the NFL. He actually might fit very well into the CFL game.

Jacobs is another one that throws the ball well and has nice size. Problem with him is that he needs to learn the rest of the game. He bsically stood in the shotgun and threw to the first guy to get open. He is not a very good ball handler. Has a chance to be pretty good, but he needs to sit on the bench and learn for a couple of years. I like him much better than McNeal.

They are much different players. Wallace is much faster and can handle the ball. Besides, Wallace has done nothing in the league and probably never will. I have seen McNeal in person a couple of times and I don't believe the size he is listed at either. Last year at CU, I was at field level and he barely cleared the Ref's shoulder. If he is 6'2" that ref was 7' tall

What about Omar Jacobs. wasn't he the one that lit up the field in that College all-star game that took place right before the Aloha Bowl (all-star game). I believe thats who I am thinking of. But anyway, whoever it was had confidence and made big plays...

Reggie McNeal was the MVP in the first one.

No, Croyle doesn't suck, but he has been injured every year till this one and he is as skinny as my 12 year old daughter.

Another Marc Bulger ???

Ummm, if that was true, that'd be a good thing...

Croyle just needs to add some weight, and he'll be fine.

KFFL and Denver Post report WR Chad Jackson was interviewed by the Broncos. Woohoo, go Chad!

Weve been showing quite a bit of interest in Mike Bell, the RB out of Arizona during the combine.

I followed him through HS and College here in AZ. The guy ran for 200 yds a game in HS. Got hurt at Arizona last year, which might make him drop to the 3rd round for us..I wouldnt mind a bit if we spent a comp pick on Bell.

Hmmm???

CDS Profile

Chad Jackson became Chris Leak's favorite target in 2005 as evidenced by his 90 receptions. In fact, Jackson only had two games all season where he was held in check -- back to back games against LSU and Georgia, where he had a combined 8 catches for 50 yards and 0 TDs. Jackson has outstanding speed and is a great deep ball threat as shown his sophomore year when he averaged more than 22 yards a catch. In 2005 he became more of a possession receiver, but still had an 80-yard TD grab and managed to find the endzone 9 times through the air (he added another 2 TDs on 16 carries).

Jackson also impressed me this season with his power and strength. He's not an easy player to tackle and with so many corners proving to be inept at the art of tackling, Jackson can pick up extra yards breaking arm tackles. Jackson will need to improve his focus as he will frequently drop the easy balls if he hears footsteps or is looking to make a play before securing the ball.

Jackson declared early for the 2006 NFL Draft after requesting a grade from the NFL Advisory Committee. He said he'd go back to school unless he learned that he was expected to be a first or second round pick, and that, apparently, is what he heard. In a shaky WR class, Jackson will likely hear his name called in the middle to the end of the second round.

@61 I would LOVE the pick!!!

I heard he had pneumonia prior to his senior season as well causing him to loose a lot of muscle weight, that true?

He sounds like our type of RB. Underperformed this past season for reasons out of his control, but has a lot of talent, good vision, and is being underrated. We love those types of RBs. Its also why I think we're eyeing Gerald Riggs Jr., similar to Bell in that his college career leaves teams with questions.

He contracted a virus or something yes..He didnt get the rock much till later in the season. He tore up ASU pretty good in the last game. I like Riggs too, but Mike Bell has huge upside, and is a one cutter.

chavous does watch a lot of film, but I know people who watch seinfeld everyday and it hasn't made them funny.

Corey listed Mike Stone as the #1 CB prospect on the day of the 2003(2002 maybe) draft. Surely we all remember Mike Stone.

Honestly, does anyone know Mike Stone?

Only us here in Arizona, who watched the Cardinals take Stone in the 2nd round and called it the steal of the draft. Ha!:spit:

[Lidderer]

as a former cards fan I can sympathize. I don't even remember him suiting up for any game even.

Wasn't that Brian Bosworth's starring role in the box office smash Stone Cold? ;D

Heh heh....yeah I think you may be right..Nice pull. Boz's shoulder was clearly so wrecked you could see the sloping left shoulder when they shot a close up of his back.

[penguintheory]

I have to agree with Big Guy. There is virtually no chance that we're getting rid of Gold. He has a pretty big contract. I definitely think we'll be drafting some linebacking depth in the mid-rounds, perhaps as early as round three. I'm thrilled with our starters, but we are in dire need of capable back-ups if we'd be so unfortunate to have a starter go down.

I'm thinking of guys like Nicholson (third rounder IMO) or day to guys like Nande, Iwuh or Gaither for some insurance. Jon Alston from Stanford could be a possibility too.

Alston will convert to Safety. I've spoken to members of the football team here at Stanford and although he was clocked as the QUICKEST linebacker at the combine, he is too small to play LB in the NFL.

interesting.. So what do you think of J.R. Lemon's chances of makin it in the NFL. I've known him since he was a youngster.. good kid.
