^^ Denver's first pick was a RB, (it shouldve been a DE) but that's one reason we got Osackporomo.

Uh, right. First defensive pick then.

I guess I blocked that insanity out of my mind.

Off the subject, I know...but what a dumb freakin move that was! Their D was HORRIBLE last year and needed severe upgrade, and they draft a RB? They can turn any player into a stud at RB up there and they draft this kid in the first round? Why, so when he has 3 1300+ yard seasons they will trade him, or let him walk?

I read a humorous column which claimed that they drafted Moreno so that he would be one less person who ran all over them, thereby improving their run defense.

Ever since Shanahan was fired the Broncos seem to be plagued by questionable moves including the hiring of McDaniels.

McDaniels always seems to have a terrified look in his eye.

Well, when they think there are SEVERAL problems, you have to break down to build up. Their previous method didn't work out too well for them. They missed the playoffs the last 3 seasons, and have won exactly 1 playoff game after the 1998 season. Whether you think the moves are questionable or not, a shake up is exactly what this team needed.

Well, if things go according to plan, we already have pieces in place that make Orakpo a luxury on defense. The reason he's such a great pick is because things rarely go according to plan, and now we are probably as deep defensively as anyone in the NFL.

We have a good starting 11 on offense, but we're not very deep there at all.
