The Broncos don't stack another solid to great draft on the previous 2.

Biggest draft fears? Liquor stores run out of vodka as people hoard it to use as disinfectant.

The NFL is the only show for sports fans going on right now - it is extremely wise to be making news - for the sake of the league.

I think we have to come out of the draft with 2 WRs, a CB, and a C. A bonus would be if we can get an ILB, and additional DLine and Oline depth. Unfortunately I don't know college players as well as I could.

If we could come aware with Ruggs and Hightower I would be very happy. I will try to look at and give a more complete list.

I think going into the draft you can't have that mindset... You can't reach on players and pass up quality just to fill positions.

That's why drafting is an artform. While what you say is true - you also have to be concerned with the strategy of timing your roster for the salary cap and drafted players is where you get talent cheap. For instance - Dre'mont Jones was drafted last year in anticipation for the Broncos having two DLinemen ready for FA. So position help is a factor when you are looking at the talent tier at the time of the pick.

I agree, which is why I would prefer a couple of these positions filled in FA, but not sure it will happen.

I would add Jeudy to this list. I think he is the best WR in this class, although I would listen to the argument for Lamb.

The Chargers hit on their pick. I'm really hoping they go QB and he busts. I would hate for them to get Simmons, though.

My biggest fear is if a top rated player drops to Philly who is too good to pass up and they don’t get a WR.

My biggest hope is if we wind up with Jeudy. Not that you guys give a shit.
