Oakland could have traded down 20n spots and still landed DHB.
Denver has a bunch of RBs, but none who can really carry the load.
I've got no problem with the Denver pick.
But with Cutler, Denver put up 25+ a game and our defense let us down almost every week and they lost.So now we don't have Cutler and have done nothing to address the defense,
and instead grab a guy who is probably going to be, at best, a 3rd down back-Kevin Faulk guy at 5'10.
Oakland's pick was terrible, but if you take into consideration the big picture, DHB could develop, what McDork did to this team is unforgivable.
Are you serious? This is absolutely absurd.I was surprised by the pick like everyone else, but to make this claim about Moreno is way off base.
I'll be shocked if he isn't their workhorse from day 1.
You have been in every one of the Bronco threads like me and have said the same thing, scoring wasn't our issue last year. We need defensive help in the middle and pass rushing. I am down on Moreno because of A)the # of backs Denver has on the roster from last year B) the # of backs Denver has picked up in FA C) McDork's love for all that is NE and the run scheme the he had in place there. It is a wasted pick in compared to what this team needs. I probably shouldn't be so hard on him as a player.
If you have the #1 punter in the league on your team, you don't draft another punter just because he happens to be the best player available.
And now we just traded away any advantage we gained by getting rid of Cutler, our first round pick next year for a 2nd rounder this year.
Even Gruden is wondering what the heck Denver is doing with this team.....
