As the season goes on it will be more and more apparent what positions Denver will need to address next year in the draft.

First let me say that I do believe that Denver should trade for Logan Mankins and would go as high as a 2nd Round Pick(only because we have 2) for a All Pro Left Guard.  

Position I think Denver must address

1.      Safety - I think that Renaldo Hill is the weakest player on the Defense.  I think he is a ok player but I have never seen him make a game changing play.   Next  I think that Brian Dawkins will play next year but that will be it.  So Safety is my #1.

2.      NT  -   I think that Jamaal Williams has done a good job so far but we all know he is a older player and Denver must start looking for his replacement NOW.

3.      TE -    I think that Daniel Graham is good and Gronkowski is OK but Denver will most likely address TE in next years draft.

2011 NFL DRAFT -    Denver finishes at 9-7 and has the 15th Pick.

1st Round Pick (15th)--------------------------------------------    Rahim Moore - Free Safety - UCLA - 6'1" 196lbs -   A ball hawk who grades out very well.  

2nd Round Pick ---------------------------------------------------     Kendrick Ellis - NT - Hampton - 6'5" 340lbs -   A HUGE NT who grades out as a 3rd Round Pick but we all know the importance of a NT in the NFL.

2nd Round Pick ---------------------------------------------------     Traded to New England for Logan Mankins

3rd Round Pick ---------------------------------------------------       Wesley Saunders - TE - South Carolina - 6'6" 265lbs

Final thoughts -

Denver must find Dawkins replacement and a upgrade over Renaldo Hill to me would be great.  I think Darcel McBath has potential but he has to stay healthy and Bruton is just a special teams player.

I am still hoping that Denver will trade for Logan Mankins.  He would give Denver's Oline a HUGE upgrade at LG and would immediately improve our running game.

Go Broncos!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
