What if 4-16-15

[Draft Crazy]

Round 1- Chris Jones, DL, Mississippi State

Round 2- Devontae Booker, RB, Utah

What would your reaction be?

 

[SpringStein]

I'd like it... And then wonder who we didn't draft instead of Booker.

Nothing against Booker, but with $ we are paying CJ, I'd rather see OL, TE, LB or S in this area.

Anyone notice something funny about this thread?

I love Booker, so I would be thrilled with him and Jones.

I am probably in the minority here but I wouldn't feel bad about taking a RB early as long as it was one I loved and that would be well.... Booker... If not the RB class is gonna be great next year... If we improve on our OL which I feel we have (a bit at least) and CJ can stay healthy we would probably be ok at RB, but CJ's durability is a concern, we don't have to go RB early (Unless it is Booker of course) but we need something behind Anderson that can take some carries away... Someone like a Jonathan Williams, Kelvin Taylor or Wendell Smallwood, Peyton Barber a bit later on.

I'm thinking the Broncos sing Hillman and stay pat as far has a high resource used on a RB. Thompson and Bibbs have practiced in this offense for a year - had top strength and conditioning attention - and low mileage.

That being said - I like Booker and I like this draft - mainly because I'm Jonesing for Jones - though.

I like way more players in this draft I am going to be happy with this bunch as well .

 

[58crash]

it would make us a better team

Broncos will draft Kenyon Drake from Ala and he will end up having the best yr of any back picked ahead of him. You can " Booker " that, I mean book that.

I'm quickly becoming a Jonathan Williams fan and would just much rather use a 4th or 5th round pick on him and see what he can do. I like Booker but just not a fan of the 2nd round RB when we have a starter at the position and quality RB's can be found throughout the draft.

Obviously Chris Jones in the 1st is like the 1 pick I think every one of us would agree would be a great pick for the team!

 

[Orange Crush77]

How about you switch Booker with Jaylon Smith

 

[femurov]

I would be shocked. I don't think there's any way we go RB before the 4th... and that's probably a conservative guess. But, this is a "what if", so if I have to play along, I think I would like it. Jones is nice, but will probably go before our pick in the first. Booker is probably the most complete RB in this draft and I think the only reason he might fall to our pick in the 2nd would be his injury.

I don't think I'd care if we drafted Tim Tebow again in the first... I'd be happy as hell with Jaylon Smith in the 2nd.

I like him a lot too.

He also has fumbling issues. Not sure if its because of technique or his very small hands. Great fit for the ZBS. If he is there round 3, I jump. Idk about round 2 on rb.

 

[Dr Cyanide 28]

The damn draft just needs to get here already

 

[SpiritOf77]

Swap Booker with Alex Collins and this would be about as good as it gets for me

 

[Draft Crazy]

Broncos will draft Kenyon Drake from Ala and he will end up having the best yr of any back picked ahead of him. You can " Booker " that, I mean book that.

If Drake stays healthy he could be a very good NFL back. If we wait on RB like I think we do, he would be a nice fit for us and could be our KR from that start.

Patience, it is coming.

Patience, it is coming.

I love you

What do you think of Jordan Howard from Indiana ? Another 2nd RB near our pick?

 

[Draft Crazy]

I love Jordan Howard... He would be the next back I would want after Booker for our system well, he or Dixon is pretty close. I think bet RB's that suite us in this draft

1. Booker
2. Dixon
3. Howard
4. Alex Collins


I also think Wendell Smallwood at a value stand point would be a nice guy to come in and be our 3rd own back and KR. He has played WR and RB at WV. He'd put Hillman to shame.
