One Defensive Lineman?

Seems odd to me that the only defensive lineman selected by the Broncos was near the bottom of the 7th round, and he's 50 pounds or so lighter than interior offensive linemen on opposing teams.

Maybe the idea is that there will be a lot of undrafted free agent behemoths to use as cannon fodder, er, defensive tackles, and the value is in the back 7 defensive players, who can be much more mobile, agile, and maybe even hostile.

But I grew up in the days of the Fearsome Foursome and Steel Curtain defenses, so this seems pretty risky when we play against run-oriented teams.  

Hope the new approach works......
