Well, to be accurate he's got the same grade (6.6) as Borland and Bullough, it's just in alphabetical order. And Skov, who many on this site wanted but signed with Oak as an undrafted free agent was graded out only 0.2 lower at 6.4.

Two OL's - and a partridge in a pear tree....:D

Nope.

Corey Nelson, 6'1" 215". They have to have a place in mind for him - otherwise, it's the PS

Shazier is an OLB. Mosley was the only ILB ranked higher.

Posted by Rollston Frangopoulos on 2014-05-10 18:04:35

Man... No luck at all with safety?

Posted by ItsAllOverSnottyFans on 2014-05-10 17:07:31

That doesn't surprise me. Probably only Shazier was higher.

FWIW, NFP had Barrow 2nd ranked ILB in draft, over Borland, Skov, Brown, Bullough...

I like Lamin Barrow to Broncos. Could fit some of the Wesley Woodyard role. Dude is fast.

More on LB Lamin Barrow:
http://www.nationalfootballpos...

"Barrow is one of the better athletes you will see at the linebacker position. He is listed at being 6’2 – 232, but he has a long frame and could easily get to 240+. His play strength is good, but not great, and he is explosive. He has excellent play speed and body control showing quick feet and easy change of direction. His play speed is sub 4.6. He lines up as a Will linebacker, and because of his athleticism, they have him playing in space often."

Ouch. The only hope for a mike is the last few rounds of the draft. I know Elway tried to move up in the first.. and he tried to sign free agents as well.. But, it is what it is. Still no mike.

Posted by toomanyrappers on 2014-05-10 11:46:32

A year after dropping a #1 on a DT, we shouldn't be terribly worried. If we are, then Elway screwed up.

Posted by toomanyrappers on 2014-05-10 11:41:26

So, uh, gotta be LB, tomorrow, right? Maybe use one of those 7th rounders to trade up for Tripp or Telvin Smith, then take Williamson in the sixth? Still a lot of good corners available heading into day three...

Posted by Royalwithcheese on 2014-05-10 02:51:37

Haha, that was my first thought as well when we took him. Hopefully he's got the path to the Superbowl tattooed all over him.

Posted by Dubs on 2014-05-09 23:11:37

I felt the same. 2012 Tony Carter played great. 2013 wasn't on the field all that often and I felt didn't live up to his previous performance.

If he can return to form, we'll be deep again. Oh, and if Kayvon can improve, bonus.

Posted by DragonPie on 2014-05-09 23:10:40

Michael Schofield. Well, if we ever need to break someone out of prison, we've got our man.

Glad to see the Broncos fixing obvious weaknesses. And Happy Christmas to me!

Posted by Van Carter on 2014-05-09 21:08:27

Ward is more than an adequate safety, Ware certainly is as good as ED, and Roby's in the fold. I'd like to see a piece at OL, and while they will almost certainly get a WR (which goes deep in the draft). You're getting your Xmas early.

Posted by Doc Bear on 2014-05-09 20:50:28

Even if Kayvon turns out to be a great player (I think he did well as a rookie), we still need to draft a CB. At the beginning of the year, I though we had great depth, and injuries piled up in a hurry and really showed that we weren't as deep as I thought.

Posted by Dan Alsup on 2014-02-04 15:52:16

I think WR will be a bigger need if Decker leaves in FA. With all the youth at RB, maybe a veteran backup is called for. And DE is probably a bigger need than DT if Vickerson comes back healthy.

Posted by Claudezilla on 2014-02-04 12:50:47

Given my impression of the Broncos' defensive scheme and philosophy,

I think the Broncos need another safety to take the field with Rahim Moore. The Broncos need to replace the quality of perimeter pressure that was lost with Elvis. The Broncos need another cornerback, unless Kayvon Webster is much better than I think. I also think the Broncos need to improve the inside linebacker position, assuming Miller and Trevathan are the future at the outside positions.

The offense needs pieces still too. The Broncos should replace Zane Beadles at guard (certainly as a starter), and develop more depth on the line. If Decker departs, the Broncos should acquire another young receiver as well.

Needs (no order): ILB, S, CB, DT, OL, RB
