PrintHere's my first (official) Broncos mock draft with no trades. Tell me what you think.
Round 1, Pick 11
Rolondo McClain, ILB, Alabama
6' 4" 254 lbs
via a.espncdn.com
Don't need to go into this one too much seeing as how he's one of the most popular picks for us here. Has great instincts and leadership, and earned the Butkus Award as the nation's top linebacker while playing for national champion Alabama last year. Could step in right away and lead the defense for the next decade.
Round 2, Pick 45
Cam Thomas, NT, North Carolina
6' 4" 330 lbs
A big, powerful tackle that really caught scouts' eyes at the Senior Bowl, Thomas seems to be a perfect fit at nose tackle. He'd be able to learn behind Jamal Williams for a couple years while being a part of the rotation, and could step in if Williams goes down or when he retires.
Round 3, Pick 80
John Jerry, OG, Mississippi
6' 6" 328 lbs
The holes along the lines are obvious. A guard and center are needed, and Jerry is just the type of big man who excels at run blocking that McDaniels is looking for to help secure the trenches
Round 4, Pick 111
J.D. Walton, C, Baylor
6' 3" 300 lbs
via grfx.cstv.com
Walton is a consistent player who should compete for a starting job immediately, especially if another center isn't signed soon. Should help solidify the offensive line for years.
Round 6, Pick 173
Myron Rolle, S, Florida State
6' 2" 215 lbs
If Rolle is available here, this pick shouldn't take very long. A Rhodes Scholar who spent the last year studying as Oxford, he is a versatile safety with good speed and solid tackling.
Round 7, Pick 204
Jamar Wall, CB, Texas Tech
5' 10" 204 lbs
At this point in the draft, Wall would be drafted as depth and will compete for a roster spot with 2009 rookie Tony Carter. He plays well in zone coverage and is the type of hard worker you look for in any player.
Recap
1. Rolando McClain, ILB, Alabama
2. Cam Thomas, NT, North Carolina
3. John Jerry, OG, Mississippi
4. J.D. Walton, C, Baylor
6. Myron Rolle, S, Florida State
7. Jamar Wall, CB, Texas Tech

Admirable effort…
You’re a man who’s into the whole brevity thing. I appreciate that. No speculation about Marshall or Scheffler trades, either. This would be a solid draft, if it were to develop like this. I particularly like the Rolle pick. I think he could develop exceptionally well, particularly under the tutelage of Dawkins. I find it absurd that some teams find his Rhodes Scholarship a deterrent. Well done, Broncoman27.

Best so far
I think this is the best and most reasonable so far. I could live with this draft very well.
Great Mock draft Broncoman27!
Simple, straightforward, and very realistic! This board could actually play out. Nice job!

This draft is BOMB
I love it!
A vision without a plan is just a dream. A plan without a vision is drudgery. But a vision with a plan can change the world.
That's a great compliment from the draft maker you are sayre
I agree. Very well laid out and reasonable. I wouldn’t be upset at all should the draft fall this way.
I'm glad we had this talk. -- TJ Johnson

Rolle won’t fall THAT far.

I'd be sorta surprised if he did
But I was going off of nfldrafscout.com’s rankings, and they had in the 185 area.
WOW!
Looks like the best draft ever!!! However, some of these players may come off the board much ealrier than anticipated. But, I hope not.
Great Mock!
Plus- find a trade to get us an extra – early – pick so we can add a WR (E. Decker, C. Mitchell) to this mock.
If we can get Rolle in the 6th, that would be awesome!
Abide, the dude does. Know you not, but comfort in that I take.
I don't think Walton will be there at that round.
He’ll be gone at the end of the 2nd or first part of the 3rd.
I"ve seen a lot of different things about Walton
The two sources I was using (nfldraftscout.com and the Pro Football Weekly Draft Guide) both had him in that area. I’ve also seen him mocked to us in the 2nd on walterfootball.com.
Yeah but i'll tell you this
If he is there at our 2b pick or even 3rd round pick we will draft him. We also have to look at stuff like do the Bronco’s like him, and should we take him to keep them from getting him :P

I could see that happening
You bring up some good points. I’ll keep that in mind for my next mock, and I think I’ll have to have us going sooner if we want him.

Here's mine
1- Berry FS
2- Jerry Hughes DE/OLB
2b- J.D Walton C
3- Linval Joseph NT
4- Micah Johnson ILB
5- Jimmy Graham TE
5b-Seyi Ajirotutu WR
5c- Al Woods NT
Nice!
If we could land Berry, that would be great. So what sort of trades do you have going down there?
Sorry Broncoman
Not trying to trick ya, I just come in from time to time to see what’s going on, and who’s getting talked about in the draft. That draft is one i did for the Chiefs,with the picks we have right now.
My little brother is a Denver fan, so being a Chiefs fan has been tough to say the least, on X-mas, and other holiday’s.
Ah, alright
I was wondering about the three 5th rounders. If you guys had that kind of draft that would definitely help improve your team, especially Berry and Hughes. The AFC West sure looks like it could be a lot more competitive soon.
Berry wont fall that far. Cmon.

I doubt Myron Rolle will be there in the 6th...
He’ll probably go around 80th-95. That sounds like the 3rd round to me…Cam Thomas is the poor man’s Dan Williams and would be a great pick imo. JD Walton just because you liked the name? JD?
Rolle could go anywhere from the 3rd-6th
But for the sake of this mock, I used nfldraftscout.com, which had him ranked about 185, which surprises me. I might not rely as much on those rankings for my next mock. The name wasn’t part of the consideration when I picked Walton. (But now you’ve got me wondering what J.D. stands for.)
