Who is the biggest WTF? pick we could make at #12?

[footstepsfrom#27]

Barring a trade, who is the most likely head scratcher you can think of at #12 in this draft? Last year I hated the move up for Moss. Is another WTF? pick in the cards this time around?

My prime candidate is Keith Ellis, who I think fits Shanny's idea of what he wants in a linebacker, a guy with speed. The dude reminds me of Ian Gold...blah...I hated the move for DJ to strongside and MLB but who's to say Shanny wouldn't do it again for another undersized guy on the outside with speed? My second choice would be WR Limas Sweed of Texas. Shanny likes Texas guys and he's shown he'll take a receiver in the 1st round. With Rod and Javon gone and Marshall having issues...you get the point...and I'd hate that pick too.

So who is it?

i think you mean Rivers here...

but i'm going to agree with you that Keith Rivers would be the biggest head scratcher to me...other than QB obviously...

[RunSilentRunDeep]

Any CB or WR would make me cry.

[Beantown Bronco]

Honestly, anything other than a DT or OT would be a head scratcher IMO.

[bowtown]

The Broncos will take Balmer, and it will be a mistake. Write it down.

[theAPAOps5]

Matt Ryan

That would be the ultimate WTF and I would go on a 40 day and 40 night rant that would make O4Life proud.

[JCMElway]

Yeah, I hope the Broncs don't jump for Balmer at #12. If we can trade back into the 20's, I have no problem getting Balmer.

Taking Rivers or D Jackson at #12 would be a mistake as well.

[NFLBRONCO]

Phillips at 25 I'd be happy with him not at 12.

[bronco militia]

Maurice Clarett.


errrrrrrrr

[orinjkrush]

Rivers. or any LB. i could understand any OT or RB.

[montrose]

Rivers seems like a WTF pick, but Shanny's heart-on for LB's shouldn't make it too surprising. Reaching on Balmer of Phillips for need would also be a WTF pick, IMO (lol, j/k, STFU Montrose). Jackson could be another, although with the constant problems in the return game I could see it. CB would also apply, however with Foxy and Paymah's pending FA along with Bly's contract and a deep year for CB's - that is somewhat explainable as well.

So what would be a pick at #12 that would just absolutely blow everyone way and say WTF!? How about hometown boy Calais Campbell? He's be a major reach and at the DE position where we've already selected players the past few years yet it's so far out there I could see there being a crazy 1% chance Shanahan would do it.

So who is it?

Shanny is using genetic manipulation to create the ULTIMATE hybrid super LB/DT/SS! Keith "The Trojan-horse" Ellis!!!

[Gcver2ver3]

I heard somebody on the Mane saying they thought we'd draft the DE Harvey out of UF...

that'd be another head scratcher...

[Ziggy]

Kenny Phillips at 12 would be a huge mistake.

[Kaylore]

Matt Ryan

That would be the ultimate WTF and I would go on a 40 day and 40 night rant that would make O4Life proud.

Yeah its hard to disagree with this. I think a defensive end would surprise a lot of people too.

[Requiem]

I'd **** myself and probably kill someone if we took Balmer at #12.

[shakenbake]

If they take Keith Ellis at 12 that would certainly be a head scratcher... Who the hell is Keith Ellis? Is he related to that Foneco guy? If he is then I am all for it.

[shakenbake]

I changed my mind. Keith Ellis at 12 would be good. We could use a good motivational speaker to help get the guys fired up. Looks like he helps with goal setting

He's half Keith Rivers, half Sedrick Ellis. It's like MANBEARPIG, but with two of USC's highly touted prospects.

The speed of Rivers, the run stopping ability of Ellis. . . but the brains of a co****cking moron. Did I mention I hate USC?

[BroncoFiend]

Oh boy, do we have another Foneco on our hands here? :rofl:

[montrose]

It could happen. Dude is being talked about going as high as #7. He's an SEC boy that the Broncos love and while the DE position is better than others, it's still not a strength, IMO. Remember when we took Middlebrooks in 2001 a year after taking O'Neal and when we still had D.Walker on the roster? This could be a similar scenario.

[NW Bolt Fan]

The Broncos will take Balmer, and it will be a mistake. Write it down.I don't like Balmer either, but I'd be blown away if donks took him 1st without trading back...

[boltaneer]

I hope the Broncos take Chris Williams.

[NW Bolt Fan]

I hope they take Otah.

[Broncos123]

Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie

[HorseHead]

Albert from Virginia, seems like that could be a Fotser mistake there...

[Gcver2ver3]

i want Keith Ellis...

I'm thinking about starting a thread on this guy...

he's a beast...

[NaptownChief]

You guys are all bagging Rivers but I will bet anyone lunch that it will only take about 24 hours or less before all you boys go into homer mode and convince yourself it was a good pick if it were to happen.

It didn't even take that long for many of you to support the Mo Clarrett Jug Head pick and that was one of the dumbest picks in the history of the draft.

[shakenbake]

He's half Keith Rivers, half Sedrick Ellis. It's like MANBEARPIG, but with two of USC's highly touted prospects.

The speed of Rivers, the run stopping ability of Ellis. . . but the brains of a co******ing moron. Did I mention I hate USC?

Wow, that sounds great.

[NaptownChief]

It's like MANBEARPIG,



If you could bottle MANBEARPIG and sell it to NFL franchises you would make a lot of money. MANBEARPIG would be unbelievable in the trenches.

[NW Bolt Fan]

Albert from Virginia, seems like that could be a Fotser mistake there...
If it's assumed he can play tackle, I agree on the possibility. If he's being picked to play guard and maybe moving outside... I think he's gonna be decent.

[JCMElway]

i want Keith Ellis...

he's a beast...

Meh, Keith Ellis does just not have the ring of Foneco.......

Oh, and Foneco would destroy manbearpig. No question.

[shakenbake]

I would like to have one just around the house

[Broncoman13]

Balmers, Sweed, Jackson, and Rivers would all be WTF picks for me.

Thankfully, I think we have addressed the WR needs. If Sweed or Jackson were available in the 2nd, then by all means.

Balmers is a boom or bust type. I'd prefer something a little more sure at #12. Rivers is not a need at this point. I'm really hoping somebody takes him in the top 10 so we don't have to worry about it. He's a great player, but far from a need. I would actually gasp a sigh of relief if he was taken by the Saints. I don't want NE to end up with him either!

[Gcver2ver3]

i don't think so...

keith ellis could take foneco and manbearpig at the same time...

with his eyes closed, hands tied behind his back while listening to christopher cross on his Ipod...

[SonOfLe-loLang]

I can see them taking Rivers if they have little intention on signing DJ back next season. That would make sense, though i hate replacement picks like that because it doesnt suggest you are improving

[oubronco]

I've heard that secretly they are gearing up to draft that Robertson guy

[footstepsfrom#27]

LOL...Yeah I was thinking about both Sedrick Ellis and Keith Rivers when I typed this. Glad you all got a nice chuckle. ;D

Carry on...

[Beantown Bronco]

Who's the biggest WTF pick?

I'll say it........Anubis.

[theAPAOps5]

Who's the biggest WTF pick?

I'll say it........Anubis.

I don't know Hotrod might have him beat.

[Hotrod]

I've come to the conclussion were going CB @ #12

[Kaylore]

I've come to the conclussion were going CB @ #12

I'd be ok with that. Seriously.

[TheChamp24]

Durant Brooks would leave me scratching my head. I mean, I know we need a punter and all, but a 1st rounder? Hmmm. Maybe Shanny is up to something there.

[Los Broncos]

Diet Pepsi machine.

[elsid13]

Does he have man-boobs??? if so sign me you.

[Atlas]

Yeah, I hope the Broncs don't jump for Balmer at #12. If we can trade back into the 20's, I have no problem getting Balmer.

Taking Rivers or D Jackson at #12 would be a mistake as well.

What if Denver thinks Balmer is the best DT in the draft? How far should they trade down? Would you be willing to gamble the best DT in the draft by trading down hoping noone will select him before it's your turn? If you trade down you really open yourself up with some team then trading ahead of you.

If the Broncos think any player they might be selecting is the best player in the draft then for godsake grab that player at #12.

[Atlas]

Balmers, Sweed, Jackson, and Rivers would all be WTF picks for me.

You can add Phillips and Jackson to that.

Just wait to you see the hold out if the little man upstairs didn't meet my client's demands.

[Northman]

You absolutely have no idea what your talking about when it comes to football you nitwit. Hilarious! LOL

[Northman]

Ocho dont know what flava clown is until he seen me.

[TheDave]

Heath Benedict...

[cmhargrove]

With franchise caliber players at OT and RB, and a roster full of new WR signees - my WTF pick is Desean Jackson.

It would be an interesting pick at #42, but i would hurl if it were at #12.

[PaintballCLE]

chad henne would have to get my vote as the biggest head scratcher

[Punisher]

Diet Pepsi machine.

:~ohyah!: :~ohyah!:

That my boy. I'm already getting your "posse" together for after the draft. Hope you don't mind dead beats

Spider - you're driver
Pez - Security and media relations
Hotrod - fashion consultant
AK1971 - you're pimp.
TheDave - you're butler

Nahh, i got/will have plenty of cash to flaunt around. ^5

I agree

Matt Ryan

Well if he is the best player left on the board, you have to take him.

:thumbsup:

[cutthemdown]

River from USC is loads better then gold. Gold was never a good tackler Rivers really has great fundamentals when it comes to tackling. I would be happy with Rivers at 12 and I think you would all end up loving him.

He's a way better football player then sedrick ellis that is for sure.

[cutthemdown]

Albert from Virginia, seems like that could be a Fotser mistake there...

Albert looks good to me

[PaintballCLE]

so is detroit going to take another WR this year? lol

[SoCalBronco]

Keith Rivers sucks

Me. It will shock everyone.
