“Misdirection” Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 Should have started with 2008 ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooleyfan1993 Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 Sure, that’s a bad list. But you Can’t exactly judge Ryan Anderson after just 1 season though. A bit unfair in my opinion. Preston Smith has been good. Derrius Guice just had an unfortunate injury, he looks like he’ll be our star RB though. We haven’t done too bad in recent years??♂️ Also, cravens is still in the league (well, technically) so he didn’t retire. But so far he’s looking to be a bust.

Riggo-toni Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 What about the receiving powerhouse of Malcolm Kelly, Devin Thomas, and Sleepy Fred? And Taylor Leave it on the practice field Jacobs. At least Smoot, Rocky MacIntosh and LaDell Betts had a few moments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BatteredFanSyndrome Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 This kind of ties into the opinion many of us hold on the current roster. Not enough blue chippers but solid. Good enough to scrap their way to the playoffs, not bad enough to go 4-12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warhead36 Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 Trent Murphy isn't bad. He's earned a 2nd contract. But you're right overall, we have whiffed way too often in the 2nd round which along with the 3rd round is often where you find the backbone/meat and potatoes of your roster.

LetMeSeeYourWarFace21 Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 HATE HATE HATED that trent murphy draft pick.....Same exact feelings I had when we drafted Apke......That feeling that if we didnt draft that player at that pick, that they wouldve been around 2-3 rounds later...... Feeling like we hit on the Preston Smith pick. Not sure how much I can blame us for Sua Cravens.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't play the first 3 preseason games( sore knee), played in the 4th one to ensure a roster spot. After making the roster he suddenly needs corrective surgery. " This comes out of left field as Cravens made his Denver debut in Thursday's preseason finale against the Arizona Cardinals. He appeared spry and looked no worse for wear after a knee injury sidelined him for the duration of training camp and much of the exhibition period. But, Klis reports, after Cravens' knee "flared back up over the weekend," it was determined that he'd need corrective surgery. The 22-year-old underwent a procedure last year, while playing for the Washington Redskins, to repair a meniscus tear in the same knee." https://247sports.com/nfl/denver-broncos/Article/Broncos-reportedly-place-S-Sua-Cravens-on-IR-re-sign-WR-Isaiah-McKenzie-121352609/ Right AFTER he makes the roster, I just hoping that the surgeon of this suddenly required surgery doesn't tell him that he might go blind.
