You know I would be happy with Hampton or Henderson in whatever way we get either. I love Martinez but I also love Estime.

I would love a Hampton/Henderson combo with Jaydon Blue.

Damien Martinez or Ollie Gordon II would also get the cheese puffs bowl flying off my lap.

Gonna be hard to let me down with a RB pick this year but any of those and you can be assured the area around me will me a mess of excitement.

Seems like we don’t really talk about Iowa RB Kaleb Johnson around here much. Actually think there are a lot of Iowa players that match up with Payton’s style this year.

Johnson, Sebastian Castro and Jay Higgins.

Higgins is athletically limited but as a late rd guy a gutsy, high football IQ, leaser who doesn’t miss tackles. A lot like Josey Jewell coming out.

Is there a RB if the Broncos took them that you wouldn't be happy with?

I would agree. Iowa coaches a lot of the same way that Payton likes to coach. Sound players that know their job well. And we know he is not afraid to draft from Iowa with him willing to trade up to get Riley Moss. I think Johnson is going to be higher on the Broncos board than for other teams.

Assuming you are talking about the earlier RB's and the answer would be not really.

Obviously there are some what will get the cheese puff bowl flying out of my lap and there will be others where My reaction would be "Cool"...

I love Hampton and Henderson so much that I hope if we don't get either I am not in depression mode.. But my thought is it just means they will end up getting a player I like in Rd 1 combined with a RB I like after the first soooooo.

Chiefs taking Xavier Worthy last year in Rd 1 (my personal fav player in last years draft) was depressing to me. I was happy with getting Bo and all of that but I went to bed that night sorta sad. I am over it now.. You adapt. ;)

Yeah, Iowa is great at building players and preparing them for the NFL. NFL teams really like Iowa coached players. Smart players who work their way from the bottom to the top. Iowa doesn't get many 4 or 5 star guys but if they do they often don't even end up starting at Iowa. When fans whine about Kirk Ferentz it makes me cringe. I know the offense isn't fun and it hampers them a bit with such a good defense but if I am a player I would wanna play for Kirk.

There are still some mock drafts out there that have the Broncos getting Jeanty at #20. No way this happens. Most mocks now show Denver with Hampton. I won't be shocked if the Broncos trade back and take a DT in the 1st round. That would potentially set them up to grab their RB and TE in round two, if they add a pick. I think I'm aligned with many on this forum that a trade back makes sense, given the depth at the positions we need.
