He sucks at blocking but then we should be using him more in the passing game in my opinion but man yesterday he was stinky poo in the blocking dept.

All year really being a bad blocker. Lots of holding calls though. It's on Shumer to use him effectively though.

Exactly. If only Denver had good to solid offensive coordinator and the right QB Fant would really shine and stand out. It sucks Denver only continues to not use his strengths but only his weakness (pass blocking).

Keeping Fant in to block more than a couple of plays a game is pointless. He's a pass catcher.

Lol fant is a bust because he’s a pass catching mis match that can’t block yet in year 2????? It’s a shame we have this great talent and don’t even use him. Shurmer is an idiot

Updated article

Von Miller was in just as much shock as Broncos Country after the team traded the perennial Pro Bowl outside linebacker to the Rams on Monday in exchange for second- and third-round picks.

Speaking to reporters outside team headquarters a couple of hours after the news broke, the 32-year-old said he felt “kind of numb” in the immediate aftermath.

“(The trade) was a surprise,” he said. “This team, they’re going to start winning soon. … We’ve got a lot of great players and a lot of great coaches here, and the staff is amazing. I wanted to be a part of it to fix it, but you’ve just got to keep moving.”

Miller, the Broncos’ franchise sack leader with 110.5, spent Monday morning meeting individually with coach Vic Fangio, general manager George Paton and president/CEO Joe Ellis, as well as saying goodbye to teammates before he departed from the facility around noon.

Much love to Von. This gives the team a 2nd and a 3rd back, and gives him a chance to win another ring this year. It's tough, but inevitably Von was going to bolt for Dallas in free agency anyways and the team needs to allocate money to Chubb. With that said, this seriously sucks but I completely understand why.

I am now team #FirePaton.
