According to Adam Schefter, Broncos to sign Shaun Phillips.

Damn, there went Stacy.

Solid move, imo.

[Skinny]

Fisher got his shit together this draft.

[Northman]

Not too familiar with King. Any good?

[Nick]

added depth there and while was starting receiver at georgia would be alot better in slot. Hope he makes the roster.

[I Eat Staples]

Taverres King, I love the player and you can never have too many weapons for Peyton Manning.

I wanted Steve Beauharnais here but I'm not surprised we took a receiver.

[Slick]

The two geeks on their laptops confirm denver signed Phillips on a 1 year deal on nfl.com the same time as King was selected.

Tavarres King actually played 5 seasons at Georgia. Must have got a medical redshirt as freshman. Averaged 19.1 yards per catch off 136 rec

WR Tavarres King had 42 catches for whopping 950 yards (22.6 per) and 9 TDs last year at Georgia.

WR Tavarres King said Georgia RB Knowshon Moreno rolled up on his ankle in his freshman year. King wound up with medical redshirt.

Taverras King. Sounds like another guy who isn't white. NTTIAWWT

2 good picks. Cornelius Washington, Reddick, and Swope still on the board.

[Simple Jaded]

ESPN is talking Bray, good time to take a QB.

What's up with Swope? I thought he was a high rated player. I see kickers going before him.

Depth.

[Northman]

Good pick by Ariz.

[Nomad]

Swope there it is.

Are the Broncos going to a zone scheme? That helps Beadles/Walton but it does nothing to fix goal line/short yardage issues.

Vinston.

Vinston.

Sounds like a Russian name

Not after signing Vasquez. Him and Franklin are not ZBS material. The OT pick looks like a project to me. Crazy athletic, and started as a Dlineman at Vtech.

There's the backup OT Broncos wanted: Vinston Painter, 6-4, 306 pounds from Frank Beamer's Virginia Tech Hokies is thier 6th round pick

[Denver Native (Carol)]

Mike Klis ‏@MikeKlis

If Broncos go need in 7th round, they take either SS or ILB. Or is the 7th round where teams really go with "best available player?''

[Denver Native (Carol)]

Denver Broncos ‏@DenverBroncos

What do the Broncos' newest pass-rushers, Quanterus Smith and Shaun Phillips, bring to the club? http://dbron.co/1vc

[BroncoAV06]

Both 5th round pickes are interesting reading the scouting reports. Look like both could contribute at some point if they get healthy in Smiths' case and get some good coaching with King.

[SmilinAssasSin27]

Cincy has their shit together. I'm betting they'll have a ring within 3 years.

Probably already posted in here, but I loved this from Webster's presser.

Question: Have you talked to Champ yet?

Webster: Nah, I haven't. I talked to Peyton, though. He text me last night and told me it's time to work. So, when Peyton text me and say it's time to work, it's time to work.

That's part of their Masters program.

[SmilinAssasSin27]

OK...I've been patient all week. The picks made weren't "my" guys, but I can acknowledge that the first 2 were pretty damn good selections. I also love the WKU DE. That said...it's selfish time...Gimme Da'Rick friggin Rogers!

[ForgettingBrandonMarshall]

I vote Dysert...well I have to...my girlfriend went to Miami :dancing:

[Ziggy]

Give me Kwame Geathers. Then again, I haven't been right yet.

[SmilinAssasSin27]

wow...Buchanan just went. Forgot about him. He'd have been a nice addition. Pre-season, he was a 2nd round projection. Even saw him in round 1 in a few mocks. Damn Pats.

[Ziggy]

Belichick is a master of maneuvering in the draft, not so much a master of getting picks right. The only difference between him and Shanny is that Shanny got Elway when John was at the end of his career, and Belichick got Brady at the beginning of his. Both are great coaches, not great GM's. If Brady retired in Belichick's 2nd year, he might be coaching another team right now as well.

[Poet]

BB seemed to be more savvy with the cap and was better at squeezing the last bits of productivity out of veterans.

[Ziggy]

BB seemed to be more savvy with the cap and was better at squeezing the last bits of productivity out of veterans.

Shanny was the same way when he had Elway in the locker room. Free agent vets like Neil Smith, Howard Griffith, Mark Schlereth, Tony Jones, Bill Romanowski, Eddie Mac, Keith Traylor, and a few more. All but one of those came in as vets during free agency. It was after Elway retired that Shanny started getting desperate and wasting cap money on silly free agent pickups.

[Poet]

That's exactly why I formed my opinion. Although for it to be truly fair, I would have to wait to judge BB after Brady retires.

[SmilinAssasSin27]

BB also had Cleveland ready to roll and then his disciple, Ozzie, took the ball and ran after ownership wrecked the ship.

[MOtorboat]

ZOMG QUARTERBACK!

Zam is going to be so ******* happy!

Rejoice!

I wish I could get 83.5 on my tests in college.

[Dzone]

We are looking at the future face of the franchise, Zac Dysert...Oz, welcome to the practice squad LOL

[Jsteve01]

he'll be a value play at end vs these old over priced dudes.

[Nick]

Painter is basically same format we went off of. Started as a senior through hard work. Good value and added depth. Little familar with Zac Dysert... Again, Hard worker and missed time playing and not working out for scouts.

It looks like Broncos were in Sleeper mode trigger happy through out entire draft.

Bleacher report suprisingly has an accurate write up in what I saw in the guy (only seen about 3 times play and a couple little special things about the kid on pocket pressence). http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1611351-zac-dysert-scouting-report-nfl-outlook-for-miami-ohio-qb

Very pleased with draft. I would give it an A specialy where we were drafting at.

[Northman]

Zam should be happy now. We have a 7th rounder to try and win the job from Oz.

This is most likely the senario.

[Denver Native (Carol)]

Before the NFL draft, Broncos executive John Elway talked about taking the best players available.
Is it just a coincidence that each of the Broncos picks appears to fill a need, at least to supply depth?

http://photos.denverpost.com/2013/04/27/photos-denver-broncos-2013-draft-picks/#1

[OrangeHoof]

What this says to me is that Oz is now competent enough to be a true #2 and we can develop somebody behind him. I thought Oz looked fine in garbage time last year. A bit awkward but good enough.

[TXBRONC]

This is most likely the senario.

I agree this seems like the most likely scenario.

Dysert worked out for scouts. Our staff was present....


Zac Dysert is mid-round QB prospect with ample upside

A workout conducted outdoors in the elements — 25-degree temperatures and 10 mph winds — did little to hurt the intrigue surrounding Zac Dysert in the 2013 NFL Draft.

A total of 22 teams — including quarterbacks coaches from the Cincinnati Bengals, Denver Broncos, New York Jets and Pittsburgh Steelers — were represented at Miami of Ohio’s pro day on March 21. Dysert — who draws an obvious comparison to former RedHawks quarterback Ben Roethlisberger — has a private workout scheduled with the Philadelphia Eagles. According to his draft profile on NFL.com, Dysert’s skill set and college production are similar to Roethlisberger, but he doesn’t quite possess the arm strength and bulk of the two-time Super Bowl winner and 2004 first-round draft choice.

Dysert (6-foot-3 1/8, 227 pounds) went through a positional workout led by 2000 Heisman Trophy winner Chris Weinke, who now trains quarterbacks (including 2011 No. 1 overall pick Cam Newton and current Cleveland Browns quarterback Brandon Weeden). Dysert completed 54 of 64 passes in the workout, which is a good showing when you take into account the weather conditions. Dysert is a mid-round quarterback with a lot of upside, and it will be interesting to see where he gets drafted.

So the 7th round pick is legit competition, but the UDFA and the career NFL back up from last year weren't.

Makes sense.

[Simple Jaded]

7th round, you idiot.

Clearly he's talking about Vinston Painter providing competition for Clady and Franklin.

[Chef Zambini]

7th round, you idiot.all the experts say if he spent another year in college he could go in the 6th !
.
I am an idiot?
what would you call someone who wastes a second round pick on a guy who wont win his job against a 7th round pick?
I just think JFE was TOO close to the brock selection and allowed his personnal relationship to influence his decision. He was then too defensive about the process and has NOPT allowed brocks own talents to dictate his role !
I HOPE JFE will just allow talent and performance dictate who is our #2 QB and that we all get to see brock ON THE FIELD competing for his job!

Makes sense.I continue to contend that brock did not WIN or EARN the job , but instead had it HANDED to him !
I saw nothing in the pre-season to indicate he EARNED the job that JFE handed to him just a week after he was drafted !
JFE DECLARED brock "our FUTURE" brock did not EARN that role before JFE declared it !

[Chef Zambini]

JMCD and Tebow.
JFE and BROCK.
the similarities are disturbing!


those similarities being the draft selection and the subsequent vested interest and defensive reaction to the selection.

JFE is NOTHING like JMCD and tebow is not in thew same league, literally and figurativly with brock!
..but JFE is still guilty of overdrafting (minor infraction) and then defiantly defending and annointing his own personnal choice,
the far greater concern !

[Poet]

Oh god....

[Ravage!!!]

let's recap the draft so far. we have a DT, a running back and who else after that?

What people have to ALWAYS remember is that you NEVER EVER draft for THIS year. You draft for the future. The DE we drafted in the 4th round could have been a 1st round pick before his injury. Is that not great value for the future? If he starts next year, after having a full season of rehab and strengthening, is that not a great draft pick?

People need to get off this "we only have Manning for 2-3 more years".. and realize that Elway isn't just drafting for the sake of Manning. He's drafting for the STRENGTH of this franchise, for now and for the future. Getting a starting DT and a starting RB..for THIS roster, while adding in some depth at CB (which is already a strong point on the team, but needs youth) is SOLID drafting.

[Ravage!!!]

Oh god....

I know. He's like the rambling man on the corner of NYC. Just walk by, ignore, and roll your eyes at the idiocy.

How much of training camp/OTAs did you watch. How many practices did you watch?

You simply don't know WTF you are talking about.

[BORDERLINE]

I don't know much about the players e drafted but we can use all the d line help we can get and a running back was vital Hillman is not the every down back that we need. Ball could be a big upgrade if he plays well. I'm exited about this up coMing year.
