Great start to day 3

Very solid pick. I'll admit to a slight disappointment not going Westerman, but still a good choice. Trust the FO on this.

Yup. I feel like we are knowledgeable fans, but if they like McGovern better, then who are we to argue.

Sorry, fat guys don't get that kind of enthusiasm from Scott!

 

[Dr Cyanide 28]

I think McGovern and Westerman were essentially equals. I think McGovern is a better athlete.

 

[Duffman]

NFL.com has this kids NFL comparison to Zane Beadles, looks like he fits in real well with our Offensive scheme.

When I was typing the Booker thread, I was so excited my fingers were shaking! I was afraid of what I was gonna say for the virgin ears in the forum. I did randomly says "TITS"

STRENGTHS: McGovern's strength is his strength. He will emerge as one of the strongest prospects in this draft class regardless of position and possibly the strongest of all linemen. McGovern is a weight room warrior, bench pressing over 500 pounds and 225 pounds 40 times. He also broke school records in the squat (690 pounds five times) and reportedly squatted 785 pounds.

More important, he can translate that strength to the football field. For his size and with all that bulk, McGovern can surprisingly move well and can get to the second level. He does have good, nimble feet. McGovern gets out of his stance well and can drive defenders off the ball. He shows good awareness in zone blocking.



Sound good to me ... esp the strength aspect

Played LT as well as G ....

I dont wanna get everyone down, but last time I nailed a Denver pick in my DCFFL mock draft here, it was Montee Ball. Hopefully McGovern does us better.

Scouting report: Broncos fifth-round pick Connor McGovern

Good report on BSN on McGovern's skills

 

[RDog]

Connor has to be one of the strongest Broncos of all time. I read that his max bench was "around" 500 lbs. In addition he moves well and he has experience at multiple line positions. Great pick!

My grandfather told my about the election of '72.
