I had no idea - sounds like a Denver Bronco ILB - thanks DC

I know the Cardinals have shown a lot of interest in him.

Nick Kendell, LB from U of Davenport is another small school guy to look out for undrafted.

I hear he drinks to much and is on bronco forums in the classroom when he should be paying attention in class.

2016 NFL Draft Rumors: Broncos looking to trade up in the first round of the NFL Draft

Denver putting out feelers to trade up. I am sure we have done the same to trade down. All just preparing for every situation possible.

 

[Dr Cyanide 28]

with this draft being HORRIBLE at TE, I really think we should get a little more... creative with our Tight End options in the middle rounds. Thomas Duarte and Devon Cajuste are TEs in the molds of Jordan Reed/Devin Funchess that I think Denver should strongly consider

NFL Draft profile: Devon Cajuste is a fifth-round prospect for Broncos

PFF scouting report: Thomas Duarte, TE, UCLA

The 2016 PFF seven-round mock draft

 

[CEH]

All of the attention regarding the Cleveland Browns has been on whether they would take a quarterback with the eighth-overall pick, or if they'd select someone like Ronnie Stanley or Ezekiel Elliott instead. However, in speaking to sources, the Browns and Denver Broncos have been speaking to teams to feel out potential deals to trade up from their picks at 31 (Denver) and 32 (Cleveland). One team that both teams have had discussions with is the Green Bay Packers, who have the 27th-overall selection.

An intriguing bonus for the Browns moving back into the opening round from the initial selection of the second frame is the fifth-year option that comes with rookie contracts of first-round picks. It isn't expensive to move up just a few spots, and that extra season of a cheap rookie contract with a player in their prime years is very valuable, especially if the player is a quarterback. If the Browns pass on a quarterback with the No. 8 selection, don't be surprised if they look to move up from pick 32 to land a young signal caller to compete with Robert Griffin III.

Denver also is in the quarterback market. In speaking to league contacts, they believe the Broncos would draft Memphis quarterback Paxton Lynch if he got to them, but many around the league don't think that Lynch will reach the Broncos. Trading up with Green Bay would allow Denver to leap division rival Kansas City (28th pick), who also could consider Lynch.

The 2016 PFF seven-round mock draft

Odd mock, but some things that I like about it. Some real stretches but also they have nabbed a few players who I think will go higher then most people realize.

There will be some surprises like I said some guys will go in round 3 that you never would have thought would sniff the top 4 rounds.

But this one is way too out there.

 

[Draft Crazy]

Seems like every year we nab a CB that I like but haven't talked about a lot.
so I am going to jinx a few and throw out some names of who that could be.

DJ White, CB, Georgia Tech
Kevin Peterson, CB, Oklahoma State
Kevon Seymour, CB, USC
Ryan Smith, CB, North Carolina Central
Prince Charles Iworah, CB, Western Kentucky


I bet the Patriots draft a guy like Ronnie Hicks, CB, Stanford who might be the most intelligent guy off the field in the draft.

Appears the Houston Texans are in love with Leonte Carroo. #JEALOUS

The 2016 PFF seven-round mock draft

Does it irritate anybody else when analyst talk about our defense and say we lost a lot of pieces? We lost 2 starters and a good rotation guy in Bruton. To me that is not losing a lot of pieces. Our offense to me is what we call losing a lot of pieces with Manning, Clady, Vasquez, Mathis, and Daniels. That is just under half the unit gone not just 2 guys.

If you have 25 minutes this is a good video of why Hackenberg really translates well to the NFL and why he has been overly criticized compared to what he really brings to the table.

Exactly - I've been harping the extra year you get with a 1st round pick - and how that means you can develop a guy like a QB longer.

I didn't really find that impressive - Temple lost 4 games last season - including their bowl game with Toledo.

Here's what I think is the most damming thing about Hackenburg - his old Coach Bill O'Brien - at the TExans needs a QB - his Penn. St. QB is coming up in the draft - and he is way down on the draft list - yet O'Brien decides to overpay for Oz instead of drafting Hack as a value pick later in the draft. Riddle me that Batman.

TBH, Houston may select Hack who knows but most coaches do not have the luxury to develop a rookie especially a team with maybe a better defense than Denver who just watch them win the Super Bowl on defense with Brock playing a crucial role down the stretch.

Gruden QB camp. There are other clips of this show to watch as well

He changed his footwork after O'Brien left.
