These are the guys I'm most interested in, pretty much in that order too. I'd also like to see us add a 240+ pound linebacker who can play the strong side with solid coverage skills.

IF we can get three of the guys on that list I'll have a much higher opinion of this year's rookie crop.

If nothing else sign Shazor to send him on the field after the Colts are up on us by 4 TD's. He will make a few people pay!

They're now free agents, once signed will start their rookie contracts and be treated like every other rookie (restricted FA before unrestricted FA).

The best of the UDFAs will likely see better deals than they would have as 6th or 7th round selections because teams will bid over them.

I'd love to see it, but as a UDFA don't you think that'd get real pricey real fast for the poor kid? If we do sign him he'll probably end up owing the league money by the end of the season as it is, with the way Broncos players get fined.

Russell did for sure at the end of the 7th, not sure about the rest. Stubblefield did not

Herrell did not either, McCoy went to the Cardinals, and Maxwell went to Detroit. That just leaves Stubblefield and Herrel

Good for James Kinney! The guy played with a lot of heart and was a true leader on Missouri.

Shazor would help add depth at SS, Lynch will only be there 2 more years, Shazor could learn for the best then step right in.

A true ballhawk FS seems to be more of a need, Fergie is only so good. Jim Leohard from Wisconsin is a great ballhawk.

I just want to see anybody from BYU on the broncos for once in my life. I like both Matt Payne to fight for a spot and S Aaron Francisco.

I think we should pick him up and let our new TE coach work with him.

Adam Bergen Grade: 3.35
Position: TE
Class:
School: Lehigh
Conference: Patriot
Ht., Wt.: 6-4.5, 265
40 Time: 4.9
Grading System


BIO: Three-year starter awarded All-Conference and All-America honors the past two seasons. Finished his senior season with 54/634/8 after career numbers of 70/840/6 the prior year.

POSITIVES: Ultra-productive pass catching tight end that displays ability as a blocker. Offers the quarterback an imposing target, extends and looks the pass into his hands. Makes the reception in stride effectively using his frame to box out opponents. Works routes, stays low on exit and positions himself to make the catch. Displays terrific concentration and creates a lot of mismatches. Runs well laterally and tough running after the reception. Can shuffle his feet in pass protection, stays square and is always looking to hit someone. Immediately gets out on the second level and removes linebackers from the play. Attacks blocking assignments.

NEGATIVES: Not a tight end who makes a lot of plays into the defensive secondary. Stiff, gathers into routes and seemingly has difficulty adjusting to the errant throw. Does a bit of double catching at times. Must improve the strength of his base.

ANALYSIS: Ultra-productive on the small-school level, Bergen possesses the size/speed numbers to develop into a complete tight end in the NFL. Must improve his overall blocking skills, yet is a solid, middle round selection who could eventually start at the next level.

PROJECTION: Early Seventh Round
