I moved down twice, acquired multiple extra picks and still got the player I had targeted. Johnson is a player whose ability just blew me away on tape and a guy that I knew I wanted. Built with long arms and blessed with great leaping ability, he has great tendency to knock down the passes. Charles is also a stout run defender who holds his ground well against drive blocks. He’s an explosive tackler with two-way skills at the DE position and will play on all downs as a professional.
I spent a 3rd round pick moving up to select the best player on the board in Harrell. Denver’s D-Line has been downright pathetic these past few years and with Harrell & Johnson in tow, the defense just got a whole lot better.
Anthony Gonzalez might be the bigger name coming from a big time school, but Jason is the better player; he also has more experience and more potential with a combine best 4.32 forty time. Over three years as a starter he caught 32 touchdowns and established himself as a big time receiver. He wasn’t a player known for his speed, but rather as one who knew how to get open. He reminds me of players like Joe Horn and Reggie Wayne in that respect.
Free is an athletic OT who can really run for a man of his size. Doug started 49 straight games for NIU at LT and helped pave the way for Garrett Wolfe. He is a versatile lineman who brings experience and depth to a Denver line that really needs the help.
With the 176th selection in the draft the Denver Broncos select… QB John Beck, BYU
John Beck was the BPA here and I couldn’t believe he had taken the fall all the way to the 6th round. He was my pick without hesitation regardless of need.
Mozes was the winner of the Remmington Award for the nation’s best center in 2006. He’s an undersized interior lineman who could work really well in Denver’s cut blocking system.
Selvin’s a jack of all trades, master of none. He will work well as a situational back at times and make his roster spot on special teams in the return game.
I took a flyer on a kid with a great attitude and plenty of potential. Kent has all the measurables you look for in a WR, but got a late start at Oregon and only played two years of ball there. He proved to be very coachable as shown by his marked improvement from his junior to senior year at Oregon, going from 3 receptions in 2005 to 44 receptions in 2006.
A bigger, more physical guard who has all the attributes and tenacity an interior player needs to play the professional game at a high level. He isn’t a polished player at this point, but could develop into a top flight player with the right coaching.
