Apparently "workout" is one word

Apologies to English majors.

From what I have read, has played mostly basketball in college and late playing football. Story is similar to Antonio Gates. Thomas is has nice size, like 6’5, 250lbs and runs very well and said to have good hands. Blocking will be what he needs to work on, but I think he could learn since is very athletic. I wouldn’t mind a 6th round pick on him.

I don't know anything about him either

What round is he projected to go in?

Yeah

Your boy Jordan Cameron is getting all the basketball-to-football-switch hype but Julius Thomas is an intriguing prospect who’ll get drafted later than Cameron. He’ll need time and work to develop but he’s got the athletic upside.

Hunh, I don't ever remember a Bronco named Nagurski...

Add Locker to this list.

That makes 4 of 6 on the O. I really hope some of these workouts aren’t indicative of this draft.

seriously.

I could see Thomas in the 6th round, but not higher than that.

Unless they see Watkins as a RT, not sure they would really draft him.

Murray could be had in the 3rd round, has very good speed and can catch the ball well. He has some injury concerns though.

I do think Miller could work at OLB in a 4-3 defense like I mentioned in a thread, using him like the Chiefs did with Derrick Thomas, who used a 4-3 with him at OLB.

Peterson will be a great pro, but unless the Broncos can really find some impact players in free agency on defense, not sure taking him makes sense, especially if Dareus and Miller are available and are impact type players too.

Add another

University of Miami defensive lineman Allen Bailey is scheduled to visit the Denver Broncos and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and conduct a private workout for the Atlanta Falcons later this month
