    Default Failure to launch

    Ok, so what is with the Broncos' fear of drafting solid DLinemen? So far, this is another year of TOO many in a series to get strong enough to win some games at the point of attack. What is the deal with getting this done? I just annot understand how this is being ignored, so long and so often.

    Unbelieveable... IMO DT is the most important position behind QB and maybe LT.

    it appears the broncos did not want to reach on any player. The other teams also let Paiea and Austin slide..

    Looks like another year of teams running on us with ease. We are screwed at DT yet again.

    I don't know if I would say it's the worst draft ever but it's pretty crappy to have a strong need at DT, in a draft with a lot of good DTs, and to get none.

    I hate it when we get the best linebacker and the best safety in a draft where we badly needed help at linebacker and safety.

    I hate that we haven't drafted a decent DT since 1999...

    I swear to God that the world won't end if we actually draft one... I PROMISE!

    Oh, Rahim Moore is garbage. McBath is a better Safety - on IR...

    Hard not to like this attitude...


    Moore said the team that drafts him doesn't have to worry about the safety position for the next 10-12 years. He believes he's special "in the most humble way. I'm going to get in early. I'm going to leave late. I'm going

    to put in the same amount of hours, maybe more (than) the coaching staff.

    He tries to pattern his game after Ravens All-Pro Ed Reed. Moore said he almost started crying when he got to talk to his favorite player of all time in a 45-minute phone conversation.

    "That is one of the smartest men I've ever talked to in my life," Moore said of Reed. "I learned so much. I respect what he does, the hard work and dedication. The things he does on the field and off the field, I think some of the things I do resemble."

    Oh, I love him as a person, I'm just not impressed with his body of work. He was the best of the worst Safety draft I've ever seen. The only reason that any of these guys are being drafted as high is because of the lack of talent. He's the Alex Smith of this class. Best of the worst. I sincerely hope he pans out, but he's really not a ball hawk, he's not a hitter, and he's not a solid tackler. He needs to do at least one of those things well to play Safety in the NFL. He doesn't, yet.

    im not sure if you understood what I was saying there bud...

    I was responding to someone earlier saying it was the worst draft ever..

    I said three starters with the first three picks. I am in love with this draft so far.. I would like a DT but we can't reach on one just because we need one.

    I agree...he's the definition of a "centerfielder". But that's not always a bad thing
