I'm starting the John Fox fan club. The more the guy talks, the more I like him. Hell, Elway too.

[Grover]

Yeah, I'm starting to warm up to this Elway guy as well. :salute:

Just so everyone knows, Gary Miller is at the Combine, so he is getting this info directly from Fox.

I like it...I've always been a "talent" guy I 100% agree. Like taking BEST player available.

[underrated29]

The second to last one Guarantees us a RB. Deangelo, or another FA, or drafting. I like my sleeper Graig cooper. Would like to see him come in.

Best available player........Hmm.


Does AJ Green warrant a look then?


My thought is we will draft Robert Quinn or Fairley.

IF that is, we draft at number 2.


IF we move down..........then we'll still get a great player, as long as we draft top seven.

Not sure if you think best available just defense. If its offense and defense I think AJ Green is best player in draft. IMO he's Calvin Johnson.

[BeefStew25]

I DO NOT like Gary Miller as our GM.

[BroncoStud]

I hope he can back up all his talk. He only had 3 winning seasons with Carolina... I know, I know - NONE of it any fault of his own...

Whatever, I'm cautiously optimistic about our chances with Fox. I hope his second stint is the one that covets Super Bowls.

Taking the best player available worked well in the 70's for Chuck Noll and Tom Landry; in the 80's for Bill Walsh; in the 90's for Jimmy Johnson and Dan Reeves, and then the tide sort of turned in the 2000's with mixed results from various picks. I personally like the idea!

Sorry SOS- Dan reeves shouldn't even be mentioned if you are referring to his tenure with the Broncos. Dude selected for need and missed quite often. Especially in the first two rounds. Forced way too many bad selections drafting for need.

With the exception of Dennis Smith, Atwater, and possibly Steve Sewell, Reeves' drafts were some of the worst in franchise history.

Alton Montgomery, Gerald Willhite, Ted Gregory, Freddie Gilbert, Tommy Maddox, Orlando McDaniel, Jeroy Robinson, Reggie Johnson, etc., all first or second round selections that failed miserably or never even played.

That's why I'm such a big proponent for drafting the BPA, regardless of position. Less mistakes made and better for a franchise long term.

Music to my ears learning John Fox belives in this philosophy.

[Lonestar]

I believe BPA is something you can do when 90% of your needs are filled.
Like when mikey drafted Wilson we really did not need him as our LB core was damned good already.
But since then well not many day one hits if any besides Clady who was a position of need.

BPA is something you do to ensure the long term viability of competitiveness of a team, REGARDLESS of how many needs there are. Granted it's going to take a while to get the needs filled, but it's going to take a while no matter what.

Shanahan left us in a deep talent deficit on the team which McDaniels only magnified. At this point we have so much deficient talent on the team that drafting BPA is more likely than not going to fill a need we have.

John Fox, Brian Xanders and John Elway did an excellent job representing Broncos with media appearances at Combine.
