Maurice Clarrett was just chosen by the Broncos in the 3rd round. Im speechless :undecided

[Vlyrock]

If ever there was a program for him to succeed in, it would be Denver's plug and play system with RB's. :undecided

I just wonder why they picked him so high. He'd have been around in the 4th round for sure.

[AggieWill]

I don't get this whatsoever....he would have been available in the 5th or 6th rounds anyway

[polish]

I would have doubted any other team on this pick, but the broncos are a manufacturing plant for good system running backs. If you think think the dude can be great, why not take him early and make sure you get him

[Slotback]

In the grand scheme of things, this was probably a good gamble by the Broncos.

[Vlyrock]

I agree...he's got potential and has something to prove. I would've taken a chance on him.

[AggieWill]

My question is why are the Broncos even picking at RB? They have Tatum Bell and others....aren't they 3-4 freakin deep?

[EconAg05]

Last year early in the season they lost a couple of backs to injury. Also, if I remeber correctly they traded Ruben Droughns (sp?). They could use the depth with the offense Mike likes to run. I really wish we could get rid of Plummer (I want Elway back ;) )

[Vlyrock]

who backs up plummer right now?

[EconAg05]

Danny Kanell usually does. I really like the way Mike is thinking with the draft though (the # of db's he got). The raiders picked up moss and the colts are just too dangerous with the aerial game to have a weak secondary. Hopefully plummer picks up his game this year and doesn't lead the league in interceptions again.
