Either Hotrod is looking for a date or he being cute.

I would like to add Paul Soliai DT Utah to the Broncos for a third round pick.

SoCal - any thoughts on Brown as a day 2 flyer?

Im pretty sure he wont go untill late in the second day. I'd say somewhere between the 5th to the 7th round. He's definetly a project.

Great First pick for the Mullets......

Here's a new article about Dumervil and Okoye. Elvis mentored him through the Senior Bowl process and I'm sure he's keeping in touch with him throughout all of the Pre draft festivities. They seem to have a great relationship and it'd be great to reunite them here.

Personally I liked DeMarcus Tyler, but I'm not sure he's the answer to our pass rushing woes. He'd be great against the run though.

broncs2bowl · 01-30-2007, 07:44 PM

Tyler is not a pass rusher but he fit Bates scheme of Big DTs that play the run and clog 2 gaps

I for one hope for a couple of big fattys in the middle of the Dline and that Bates uses our LB'ers in a MUCH more agressive role.

For that to be possible Bates needs

2 big fattys to eat space and push the line
1 CB like Samuel

1 more fast athletic LB
1 Speed rushing DE (maybe Elvis fits this bill already?)

Add in some Oline depth and maybe another big RB = SB

I like the thought of Tyler & Warren in the middle, but...

we definitely need a weakside DE as I don't think we can count on Elvis as an every-down rusher. We could definitely still set him up in some kind of 3rd down/ obvious passing situation package.

Samuel will be spendy, Maybe Roderick Hood or Randall Gay... Doesn't Hood have experience in retuning kickoffs & punts?

I want Soliai as well. If we can resign Myers and his 57 tackles to go with a healthier Warren, Soliai can be nice depth to be groomed for when Myers slows down. I think DT is the least of our worries. I want a S, DE, OT, RB and THEN DT.
