Draft Crazy

The argument of “don’t pay for a RB when you can draft one“ works great if you could actually draft a RB, which to be honest the Broncos haven’t really shown that they can. I mean who was the last drafted runningback by the Broncos that people would consider a good selection that worked out?
Apparently not Royce Freeman, not Devontae Booker, not Monte Ball. Maybe you can go back and say Knowshon Moreno because had a good Rookie year but was he really that good or was it because of Peyton Manning that he looked better?
Denver really doesn’t have a history of drafting running backs that really work out so at least we know how good Gordon is, or was two years ago, which is more than we could say for a running back that we take another gamble on but is unknown.
Don't we all miss the day when we could draft any ole RB off the block and turn them into a 1,000 yard runner?
Terrell Davis
Olandis Gary
Mike Anderson
Reuben Droughns (not drafted)
Makes Curtis Alexander and Chris Howard feel bad (Anyone else remember these two?) Drafted in that area, but never hacked it.
