Denver Broncos
2011 grade: B-minus
The skinny: They took pass rusher Von Miller in the first round, and he's a star when he's on the field. He's now coming off major knee surgery. Second-round pick Rahim Moore is also coming off an injury-plagued season, but is a decent player. Orlando Franklin, another second-round pick, started at right tackle the past two seasons and should be the left guard in 2014. Fourth-round pick Julius Thomas was named to the Pro Bowl last season at tight end. Nate Irving and Quentin Carter are backups.
How I did: I questioned the decision to take Miller over Dareus, which Denver got right and I didn't. My third-day gem was Thomas, which is a big hit. I liked the pick of Moore in the second as their best pick.
