Easy pick:  Funchess

Hard Picks:  Brian Blechen  OLB, Utah.  Special teams for now, the third LB when Davis moves on. 

Dean Marlow, FS James Madison.  Again, special teams, but there is room at S behind Boston.

Garry Peters, CB Clemson.  Every year, we find a rookie CB we didn't know we had.

You have to appreciate depth and special teams to get where I am coming from, but these players were gems.

Kony Ealy. I think he's going to come out stronger than people anticipate, and be ready to fill that role that we all hoped he would fill.

I also really like Brandon Wegher as my dark horse.  I actually anticipate Stew on the bike at some point during TC as a "precautionary" just to see who is really worth their poo to back him up. I have no loyalties back there, and may the best man win

I'm really hoping someone at the DE position can really emerge as a consistent threat opposite Charles. Honestly I think that is going to be the biggest thing to keep an eye on this TC. Our defense needs to have an effective pass rusher at all 4 DL positions so it is crucial someone steps up there.

 

On offense I'm going with Corey Brown. Really fighting the urge not to call him Philly Brown because I think that is a cool nickname but out of respect for Corey I wont. I think he'll be a really good route runner this season he's just gotta stay healthy.

      I don't know about you but I have been a life long Chiefs fan for the past 4 years.

      If "fans" would have came out today we would have made up those 3-points in home field advantage.

      Sure there's a ton of transplants in Colorado now. But as far as Denver in particular goes the Broncos have also been around for 65 years. Someone moving to Denver is going to be far more likely to become a fan of the Broncos and even attend games versus someone moving to Charlotte and the Panthers. Like I said it's not just one single thing with us it's multiple factors.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By ImfromClayton · Posted

      He's definitely getting better. It's fun to watch.  I've been getting killed for this take, but with the current state of college football, it just takes more time to develop a quarterback. I don't think it's a plug and play position anymore. I'm really not sure if it ever was. NFL offenses have always been substantially more complex than the college game, and the college game has simplified even more in recent years. Many college teams do not have a physical playbook anymore. That's just not the national football league.  Are there freaks who have success from day 1? Yes, without question. But so many of those guys are runners, and so many of those guys tail off. Is Bryce ever going to be Josh Allen? Probably not.  What I am seeing is a guy with complete command of the offense. He's checking into things at the line, making adjustments, and making timely throws.  He goes to David Moore a ton, because Moore is a consistent route runner. Bryce knows where he is and when he should be open. I think the guy with the "super processor" needs to be comfortable in the offense in order to do the "super processing." He doesn't have elite arm talent, and he is small of stature, but if he makes the smart play consistently, and he's willing to throw the ball downfield and not make mistakes, like he's starting to show, he's going to be a starter for a long time in this league, and it's not a position I'd spend draft capital right now.
