There's been no news yet as to whether Denver made a bid but the price for Jarmon was relatively high -- a 3rd round pick.
There are many ways to categorize things. A book by George Lakoff, Women, Fire and Dangerous Things; what categories reveal about the mind, comes to mind when thinking about how we see the world....
Bleacher Report has a quality analysis that provides insight into our attitudes after the coaching change and how our resistance to change was an obstacle to improving the team. Good stuff!
I'll be keeping track of priorites and revising if inappropriate players appear -- such as Herman Johnson, who I've overruled as ZB inappropriate. OFFENSE QB = 4, RB-F = 5, RB-C = 9, WR-F - 6,...
One of the most interesting toys for draftniks is DrafTek's online simulator, which allows one to mimic the real draft. I'm not entirely happy with their consensus Simulations lately; I just don't...
Some of you have already seen this MOCK by Wes Bunting of the National Football Post. I thought I'd draw furher attention to it because it fills our needs quite well, and does so with some players...
My first fanpost on this topic listed a number prospects for whom the Broncos had scheduled visits. Here's that topic. Not every prospect made it, as Chris Wells' missed plane flight prevented...
I've been waiting to see what Wright would come up with; he's one of the better sources when it comes to evaluating players -- since he's a former NFL scout -- and his past predictions (see his...
There's a profusion of MOCKS out there right now, and I have to admit that not every one of them makes sense, so it's a pleasure to see one that 'makes the grade.' I won't bother with a long build...
I just had to see what the added picks could bring. The procedure is the same as in the past; BPA rankings are a dominant consideration but positional need is equally important. Need picks...
Post-Supplementary Version. I decided to revamp the MOCK to take into account the revised order of the Broncos' draft, which is now different from the 4th round on. I also decided to explore...
There's been a lot of suggested rule changes coming out the annual meeting; elimination of "bunch" formations in which more than three players form a wedge on kickoff returns, protection of...
Some of the recent prospect workouts caught my attention so I wanted to post this list I saw on another site (kudos to C.U.B., and I hope he doesn't mind). Workouts don't necessarily mean a thing,...
NFL.fanhouse's Bruce Ciskie picks up on the Bus connection.
I thought I'd start a series on some of the interesting prospects who've slipped by the media's focus despite being -- apparently -- draftable prospects. We know there are players out there who,...
I thought I'd try one more using the same methodology, although this time it's with Scott Wright's Top 150 list. This means that the last three draft picks -- (6th)#172, (7th)#208 and (7b)#218 --...
I've decided to jump into the fray and take a whack at my first mock. This is only the first attempt and there will be others. For this first attempt, I'll be using DrafTek's Big Board, found here....
It's been reported as confirmed by Schefter by not directly by Schefter himself. Still, I don't doubt that it's true, especially since Pioli, ex-GM of New England, is orchestrating the deal. The...
This is an open question to those of you who remember Matt McChesney's time as a Buff -- where do you think the Broncos will use him? Is he a Guard? Is he a DE? I admit to my own bias on the...
Are they workout warrior metrics or do they tell us something about who succeeds? See for yourself.
Adam Schefter has given us another tidbit, and it's a surprise considering the recent speculation on who our new DC -- it's Mike Nolan. I wanted to post this but I won't attempt to write a full...
There's still a little confusion over the terms of the Robertson trade so I thought I'd post this: http://www.denverpost.com/broncos/ci_11401228 As it turns out, Robertson only played in around...
At this point in the season we're able to get some sense of how well our off-season FA acquisitions & draftees have panned out. I don't want to detract from the remaining games but I'd like to look...
