...I'm going to need some more "reporters" for the all-new WPSN's mock draft coverage. BrudLee, I'm looking your way

You are right about the late round RB's being gems for the Broncos, but if you look at those late gems they were merely products of the system. Shanahan will now have a bonifide top choice back which combined with the system will take much stress off of Plummer and the passing game. Williams is not just a good runner he pretty much can do it all an effective blocker, runs well up the middle, can runaway from people and does a very nice job of receiving out of the backfield. We greatly understand the need to improve our WR group but we feel that we can satisfy that need later on in the draft. A RB the caliber of Williams comes along once in a while and when he is there you have to grab him...
