MUCH less enthused than scenario 1. Maybe a C-.

if it happened, I would justify it by saying In Munch I Trust.

Shenault Scares me a bit with his injury history. The NFL game is not less physical then the college game.

I get the feeling that the Broncos are not going to use a high pick on a LT because they believe Bolles is going to be that guy. They may draft a guy later in rounds however.

Not big on Andrew Thomas. Athletically he just doesn’t do much for me. I could think of a lot worse picks though. Shenault in round two I would be fine with. I just don’t really trust that he’s ever going to be fully healthy. Just reminds me of one of those wide receivers will always show talent and flashes but never healthy enough. His nagging injuries really concern me. I know nothing major but he’s had so many nagging injuries that slow him down. That and I am so sold on one of those four guys I have mentioned in round one.

I agree- I am really not feeling us drafting an OT at least not in round 1

I see maybe a developmental guy like a Ben Bartch in the 3rd round range..

Bolles may not be "the guy", but they will give him another year and probably not banking on drafting his replacement this year if he isn't the man... If Bolles has a good year and he is the man, you still have a guy like Bartch to develop for a year or two.

Bolles probably saved the panic of drafting an OT early this year by playing well at the end of the year. I am far from sold, but I do think we are going into this year planning for Bolles to have a good season and be that guy down the line. Doesn't mean I think it will happen though.

I would ask what position Shanny has now in the front office.

Thomas- Not a fan of this pick
I'd want Shenault in Denver just in Rd3 due to injury history.

I like Shenault, but I understand the hesitation. This year, I think players with injury history will go a little later than they normally would because of the inability of team doctors to really check them out. If he is healthy, though, he is one of the best RAC guys in this draft and could end up being a huge weapon on short screens and slants and in the return game.

Murray seems solid. I wouldn't be down on these picks as much as some of the other guys here, but I wouldn't exactly be ecstatic about them, either.

Kenneth Murray? Are my eyes bad ? Doesn’t that say Andrew Thomas? ;)

I was going to post this combination in my contest post. I really love this. Followed by a top center at the top of round three and Bryce Harper after that.

I don’t get the people who don’t like Thomas. He lunges done and has some difficulty with lateral steps, but he is the finest specimen of a top tackle and the Broncos have the best online coach in the league.

Also I love it when Draft Crazy thinks he has a valid medical opinion. Not. Viska has a nagging sports hernia - people recover from that all the time.

Shenault has had many more injuries then a sports hernia my friend. Doesn't take a doctor to be concerned about a guy who has missed several games with toe and other lower body injuries. I am obviously not a doctor, nor have I claimed to be. I am stating a fact. Shenault has missed several games the past two years with foot and lower body injuries... That is my concern... Read a little more carefully. I said "Nothing major", but nagging injuries that he can't shake.

I see the same trend of a lot of WR's in the NFL who never live up to their hype because of constant injuries piling up... That is my concern.. It is an opinion. It has nothing to do with trying to claim to be a medical expert. Go ask our buddy JonBlaze... He had him on his college fantasy team. Frustrating player because he was a GTD nearly every week the last half of the season the last two years. I'm not making this stuff up... Its a fact.

A concern of mine may not be a concern of yours. Nothing wrong with that... I am here to share my opinion, and the question was how would you react?

Again- I will say it for the 100th time on here. I do not want Shenault in Round 1... Round 2 sure.

Is Bryce Harper giving up on baseball?

Any chance he drops to RD3 not for talent but, injury history and present challenges with medicals?

Thomas started 41 straight games at a high level of competition. Played 1,021 passing snaps in three years, allowed five sacks.

Starting to like CJ Henderson more and more. Feels like a player that could play right away and play a long time for Denver.
