Thanks nyc
I ‘ve been MIA for 2 days, so I don’t know if it’s been reported here, but I ran across an article on Yahoo,s Bronco Team Report(1 day old)

 After drafting Ayers; Among the other nine picks they didn’t select any DLs or LBs. Broncos coach McDaniels said he didn’t like the available players at those positions in the draft. “I don’t think this was a very deep draft in terms of players that would fit our system in those areas.”
   
Wow! how did the MSM “Draft Experts” miss this one. I think they should have logged on to this community, because quite a few of the “Amateurs”(sic)here could have enlightened them.
Have a most excellent day everyone.

or just go to the Broncos team page in Yahoo sports and you will find it.

they should! It’s a really good piece that drives home the point that line play is technique, technique, technique!
I wonder if she is any relationship to Dr Z.

I liked hearing Bowlen express all of our outside looking in, fan-type doubts… while at the same time understanding his role and standing by his hires! He’s a good owner. He hired a very promising coach who “made rookie mistakes” and no doubt wishes Jay would have called him but he wasn’t going to choose Jay over his coach… so it ended the only way it could once Jay made up his mind. The only drama we really had was amongst ourselves. Hardly any back and forth BS in the media like so many teams & players do.

I can feel myself making the transition into supporting this new regime with my heart, as opposed to just cuz I have to as a diehard fan. Anyway, we can’t really say do or die this season and properly back our coach… Two steps back as we retool is just the way it’ll probably have to be… So I’ve decided in my magnanimity I’ll give him two years. Lol (provided he offers me SOMETHING to like & 7-9 or better)

I was somewhat afraid ole’ Pat was getting a little too “hands on” for my taste. He sure cleared that conern up.

But, he backed the draft plan of his coach and general manager Brian Xanders. “I hired them to do their jobs,” he said. “I believe in them. It’s not my role to evaluate players and make those draft decisions. I’m not qualified to do it.”

BTW, thanks for the Horsetracks nyc. It sure saves all of us a lot of time! Mdierk reborn.

Who knew that the only thing holding it up was all that hot air from T.O.??

But thanx 4 bringin it to us on one page!

yallas call me…
Surely between the two of us?

I love Moreno, I’d still have taken Orakpo without blinking! But since we have him… I love the idea of another Georgia bulldog running wild in big D
Oh wow do I love it, especially since SD would probably have taken him before our #18!!
Still hasn’t anyone in the front office learned about the latest trend in drafting or should i say NOT drafting RB’s early… !!!!

Wasn’t it that team way up in the Rockies that taught the world that lesson?

I’d have traded up for Raji from 18 and taken Moreno at 12!!
What?

I’m not smart like Jo-osh, huh?

Ah shit, actually the trade up was pretty unreasonable…
Maybe tomorrow I’ll harp on the #1 for #2 trade again…
Generate some more posts and such?
Gosh I miss Shanny…
Couldn’t we bring Plummer back?
Is Al Wilson healthy yet?

Oh Oh…
Let’s resign John Lynch!!

I’m actually pretty stoked… flying to Phoenix for the honeymoon. Pretty appropriate. …Out of the flames comes a new start. Much like my Broncos & Avs, MY Suns need a new start too. Been a hard year for me sports-wise, let’s hope my teams go the way of my family. Nothing but up!
Good night all
Go Broncos!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I feel Bowlen’s pain and I’m only 45 LOL…..

Errrr….what was I just talking about?
