Thread: Who do you WANT Denver to take with their first pick?

you know the drill. . . discuss. . .

I have never heard of a single player listed in the poll

I chose Kemdiwhatever because I say let's keep this defense rolling. **** offense, offense is for pussies like Tom Brady.

I would mind that either, QB or OT/C or just keep stocking the Defense.

Maybe he and Von Miller can smoke weed and jump out of hotel Windows together. Then ride around with Shane Ray. Johnny Football would make this group whole.

I don't really know.

I know jack about amateur football players, but: Best QB Available. I think Elway and Kubes have largely stabilized and solidified our line, so QB is our only real weakness (an ILB >230 or a safety would be welcome, too, but I'm not sure I'd spend a 1st rounder on either.)

I just can't see spending a 1st round pick on a 3-4 DE; what, were all the punters taken? 3-4 DE<4-3 DE, 3-4 ILB<4-3 MLB and 4-3 OLB<3-4 OLB. VERY few 3-4 DEs are the athletic freak of nature JJ Watt is, and I believe a review of the top DE salaries will reflect that (except Malik Jackson; good luck with that, Jax.)

Nkemdiche is my first choice - our defense could be even more of a nightmare for other teams. I wouldn't mind Joesph either, but I'd like to trade back slightly and still get him if possible.

I also wouldn't blow a gasket if we took Cook, but I just don't see it happening.

As long as it's not either of those two vomit-inducing QBs you listed I'll be ok.

I like the idea of Henry (RB). I know these days, picking RBs in the first is becoming less and less popular and there have been a lot of running back busts, but if he panned out, he could be a beast.

Beyond that, the two biggest actual needs the team has are QB and DE. They have possibly workable stop gaps in both places, but if they were going to try and fill one of the needs, replacing Jackson would be far less high risk/reward, compared to trying to fill the QB spot (likely only for '17 and beyond anyway) with Cook or Hackenberg.

All of that said, if Cook is still on the board at 31, he might be hard to pass up, since their need is so strong, even though that is likely higher than he should be picked.

Round 1: O-Line
Round 2: O-Line
Round 3: O-Line
Round 4: O-Line
Round 5: O-Line
Round 6: RB

After that, I'd be happy with O-Line.

I like Nkemdiche when he actually wants to play. If we ended up with him, I'd just hope Kollar could motivate him and get the best out of him on an every play basis. That being said, I voted for Kelly because of his versatility on the OL. He "can" play every line position and plays the inside spots very well. I dont expect him to be there, but I'd love to have him if he is.

Robert Nkemdiche if Denver stand pat and of course if he is available at 31. Are his issues bad enough that he could fall all the way to the bottom of the first round?

Ugh I just selected Jarran Reed by mistake, although adding another defensive tackle isn't a bad idea either.

There are always those teams that immediately take players off of their board at the first sign of any issues. But when you get later in the first round, sometimes the gamble is worth it. That being said...there are a few teams in the 20's that could use a stud 5-tech. I wouldnt be surprised if he fell to us though
