Bryce Callahan CB-Denver Broncos: DraftNasty Throwback

May 17, 2021 Corey Chavous Leave a comment

Current Denver Broncos cornerback Bryce Callahan started his career as a relative unknown in Chicago. Despite going undrafted, Callahan has started 10 or more games in three of the last four seasons. As we learned when we sat down with Callahan years ago, his speed comes from his family lineage. In each of the last three seasons, the former Owl has posted two or more interceptions. After four solid seasons in Chicago, the Bears were forced to make moves in 2019 after he left the Windy City to go Mile High in free agency. We dive back into Callahan’s scouting report from our 2015 NFL Draft Manual.

2021 NFL Draft Recap: AFC West

May 3, 2021 Corey Chavous Leave a comment

In the AFC West, the Raiders got defensive in hopes of trying to solidify its defense and the Chiefs added a Bolton to its defensive front seven. The Chargers added a slayer to its offensive line and the Broncos are Surtain their choice could help the D. Overall, the AFC West had one of the most interesting draft weekends in the conference.

Denver Broncos
Selection	Team	Player selection	Position-School	DN Big Board Rank/Grade	Notes
1st Round, 9th overall	Denver Broncos	Patrick Surtain II	6’2 208 CB-Alabama	7/1st Round	The Broncos take the second consecutive CB off of the board and his technique is arguably the best.
2nd Round, 35th overall	Denver Broncos (from Atlanta Falcons)	Javonte Williams	5'10 212 RB-UNC	33/2nd Round	His physicality, ball skills, short yardage capability and lack of mileage make him a very attractive option as a potential fourth quarter closer.
3rd Round, 98th overall	Denver Broncos	Quinn Meinerz	6’3 320/OL-Wisconsin-Whitewater	225/4th Round	There is no doubt that his explosion, play strength and even hand usage can impress down-to-down. However, the top-heavy nature finds him on the ground when the detonations are launched at the wrong entry points to connect on opponents. Finding a balance will be key for Meinerz whether he stays at offensive guard or moves to center, where he performed admirably in the postseason.
105th overall	Denver Broncos	Baron Browning	6’3 240/LB-Ohio State	26/2nd Round	Browning is a prospect who can rush versus offensive tackles off the edge, play the exchange linebacker and line up over tight ends. As a pass rusher out of his two-point stance on the edge, his speed can be too much to handle for offensive tackles.
5th Round, 152nd overall	Denver Broncos	Caden Sterns	6’0 202/S-Texas	38/2nd Round	Sterns benefits from the reputation he garnered after producing an All-American freshman campaign. Since that season, he has been like an appetizer leaving you wanting more. In the games viewed, he was a willing, if inconsistent, tackler who produced very good laps to get over the top of his cornerbacks as a deep middle safety.
5th Round, 164th overall	Denver Broncos (via Chicago Bears)	Jamar Johnson	6’1 197/S-Indiana	105/3rd Round	The athleticism and movement are evident when watching Johnson play in the deep zones or blitzing from depth. The tackling techniques have been inconsis-tent and left something to be desired when he doesn’t keep his head up to tackle.
6th Round, 219th overall	Denver Broncos (from Atlanta Falcons via compensatory selection)	Seth Williams	6’2 211 WR-Auburn	91/3rd Round	On more than one occasion, he has leapt over defenders in one-on-one situations to post highlight-film wor-thy grabs. The level of consistency in all phases of his game is missing at times.
7th Round, 237th overall	Denver Broncos	Kary Vincent, Jr.	5’10 185/Nickel-LSU	202/4th Round	Vincent, Jr. actually manned the tough nickel back position for the Tigers during their 2019 national championship season and did so admirably. While he did jam wide receivers on occasion, he was much more frequently seen playing off-man coverage in the slot.
7th Round, 239th overall	Denver Broncos (from New York Giants)	Jonathon Cooper	6’2 254/DE-OLB-Ohio State	279/4th Round	Cooper is a natural knee bender who competes at a high level no matter where he lines up. His ordinary width gets him tied up on the perimeter by longer offensive tackles. Don't be surprised if he earns reps as a sub-package three-technique defensive tackle.
7th Round, 253rd overall	Denver Broncos (from Cleveland Browns)	Marquiss Spencer	6’4 301/DT-Mississippi State	414/5th Round	Spencer has shown in flashes capability as a four-technique defensive end, left defensive end and occasional three-technique defensive tackle in the film viewed. His durability concerns will get vetted by NFL teams.
Kansas City Chiefs
Selection	Team	Player selection	Position-School	DN Big Board Rank/Grade	Notes
2nd Round, 58th overall	Kansas City Chiefs	Nick Bolton	5’11 237/LB-Missouri	77/3rd Round	The positives include down-to-down intensity, pass coverage instincts and blitz capability. His treks on outside runs, varied depending on whether he took the backdoor on his angle to the ball. He is a quick-twitched, fast athlete with pop on contact.
2nd Round, 63rd overall	Kansas City Chiefs	Creed Humphrey	6’4 312/OC-Oklahoma	51/2nd Round	The 2020 Big 12 Offensive Lineman of the Year is a left-handed snapper with some flaws, but his technique, guile and football intelligence ensure him a good chance of becoming an NFL starter.
4th Round, 144th overall	Kansas City Chiefs (compensatory selection)	Joshua Kaindoh	6’6 260/DE-OLB Florida State	212/4th Round	He has operated from a two-point alignment and with his hand in the dirt. Is his best football ahead of him? Time will tell. It was unfortunate he got injured in the first game of the season (Georgia Tech '20) and never seemed to fully recover.
5th Round, 162nd overall	Kansas City Chiefs (via Las Vegas Raiders from Miami Dolphins)	Noah Gray	6'3 240/H-back-Duke	358/5th Round	Team captain. Classroom warrior. Plays the down TE, U-off TE, flexed-out slot and FB spots for the Blue Devils. It is evident that he has a wide receiver-like feel for separating in tight quarters with his quickness.
5th Round, 181st overall	Kansas City Chiefs (compensatory selection)	Cornell Powell	6’0 205/WR-Clemson	217/4th Round	Strong hands. Snatches the football on routes outside of his frame. He simply needs to prove that he can contribute on special teams, as he did not record a career tackle.
6th Round, 226th overall	KC Chiefs (from New York Jets via Carolina Panthers; compensatory selection)	Trey Smith	6’5 338/OG-Tennessee	54/2nd Round	Smith had medical concerns and some issues concerning his overall balance. If he can keep his weight at a manageable level, then he may be able to provide versatility for the Chiefs, as he’s started both inside and outside in school.
Las Vegas Raiders
Selection	Team	Player selection	Position-School	DN Big Board Rank/Grade	Notes
1st Round, 17th overall	Las Vegas Raiders	Alex Leatherwood	6’5 312 OL-Alabama	104/3rd Round	The 2020 Outland Trophy winner may make a move to the inside, where he was a second-team All-SEC player at RG in 2018. If he can eliminate the penalties and concentration lapses, the Raiders could look back on this pick with a smile on their faces.
2nd Round, 43rd overall	Las Vegas Raiders (from San Francisco 49ers)	Trevon Moehrig	6’1 202 S-TCU	30/2nd Round	Moehrig’s smooth nature on the field hides any minor deficien-cies that may illuminate from some questionable tackling angles in space. His communicative nature is much-needed for a secondary that lacked it in 2020.
3rd Round, 79th overall	Las Vegas Raiders	Malcolm Koonce	6’2 249/DE-OLB-Buffalo	102/3rd Round	Koonce, a former rugby star, was unable to perform for NFL teams this postseason after hurting his foot. After a couple of seasons where he was painstakingly difficult for offensive tackles to block, teams did not get to evaluate him further versus NFL-caliber competition. There are instances where teams can extrapolate his play against tougher offensive tackles (i.e. Penn State ‘19, Charlotte ‘19).
3rd Round, 80th overall	Las Vegas Raiders	Divine Deablo	6'3 226/S-LB-Virginia Tech	78/3rd Round	Players like Deablo can become valuable pieces in today’s NFL. He may not quite have the fluidity to man a position off of the hash marks, but at 6-foot-3, 226 pounds, he may very well be positioned to play in sub-packages as a linebacker when teams use dime (six defensive backs) personnel. His experience will pay dividends, but he has to become more consistent as a tackler.
5th Round, 143rd overall	Las Vegas Raiders from New York Jets (via Minnesota Vikings-compensatory selection)	Tyree Gillespie	5’11 207/S-Missouri	232/4th Round	Gillepsie developed from a solid special teams player in 2017 into a productive safety for the Tigers the last two seasons The former high school tailback is active, fast and instinctive in run support. Special tams work may be able to keep him on the game day roster, but his skills give him a chance to compete at safety.
5th Round, 167th overall	Las Vegas Raiders (from Seattle Seahawks)	Nate Hobbs	5’11 189/CB-Illinois	224/4th Round	Hobbs has a chance to make it in the NFL playing cornerback due to his movement in coverage. The 5-foot-11 former high jumper has good feet and can squeeze routes from the outside-in or plant to close back downhill at 45-degree angles out of his zone turns. The Raiders are hoping he challenges more routes in coverage.
7th Round, 230th overall	Las Vegas Raiders (from San Francisco 49ers via New York Jets)	Jimmy Morrissey	6’3 303/C-Pittsburgh	154/3rd Round	The academic warrior passed up a number of Ivy League offers to walk-on at Pittsburgh and that says all anyone needs to know about how much he loves the game. After all, how many players walk on at an ACC school and become a four-year starter? Morrissey could surprise in training camp to grab a seventh or eighth OL spot on game day.
Los Angeles Chargers
Selection	Team	Player selection	Position-School	DN Big Board Rank/Grade	Notes
1st Round, 13th overall	Los Angeles Chargers	Rashawn Slater	6’4 304 OT-Northwestern	16/2nd Round	Slater’s technique gives the Chargers added flexibility on its offensive lineman, as the former OL has started at both RT and LT.
2nd Round, 47th overall	Los Angeles Chargers	Asante Samuel, Jr.	5’10 184/CB-FSU	90/3rd Round	Samuel, Jr’s journey to the NFL follows in his father’s footsteps and the comparisons are valid. Samuel, Jr. may not be quite as sudden, but he does have similar instincts in zone coverage. Samuel, Jr.’s ability to read through the quarterback while using a skate-bail technique is eerily similar to his father’s while with the Patriots and Eagles.
3rd Round, 77th overall	Los Angeles Chargers	Josh Palmer	6’1 210/WR-Tennessee	118/3rd Round	Palmer displayed all of the necessary tools during his final two seasons to suggest he can become a better pro than collegian. His stride closed the cushion on de-fensive backs. Palmer exhibited the length/dexterity to snag passes away from his frame and won against players who are going to be NFL draft picks.
3rd Round, 97th overall	Los Angeles Chargers	Tre’ McKitty	6'4 246/TE-H-back-Georgia, FSU	193/4th Round	McKitty is a muscular H-back/TE-type who has moved around in a variance of roles for two different programs. We have seen him understand angles in the blocking game, show run after the catch skill and attack the seams of defenses. Despite never being the lead receiver at either Georgia or FSU, McKitty has frequently been a legitimate third down target.
4th Round, 118th overall	Los Angeles Chargers	Chris Rumph II	6’2 244/DE-OLB-Duke	102/3rd Round	Is he stout enough to be used as a stand-up outside linebacker or even a Sam linebacker? In spots, he has shown enough strength to handle the action versus “some” tight ends. On third downs, he has the ability to drop into coverage or rush from multiple positions. We think he can add positive weight and become a consistent rotation rusher for new DC Renaldo Hill’s defense.
5th Round, 159th overall	Los Angeles Chargers	Brenden Jaimes	6'5 300/DT-Nebraska	214/4th Round	40 consecutive starts in school. Not many true freshman start along the offensive line in the Big Ten, much less at offensive tackle. Jaimes did so at the right tackle spot in 2017 before sliding over to the left tackle position he’s manned for the last three seasons.
6th Round, 185th overall	Los Angeles Chargers (from Jacksonville Jaguars through Tennessee Titans)	Nick Niemann	6'3 234/LB-Iowa	174/3rd Round	Niemann is a former high school wide receiver from a family full of Hawkeyes. In fact, his brother Ben, finished the 2020 season with 44 tackles for the Kansas City Chiefs. It seemed like Nick was following in big brother Ben’s footsteps well after a 10-tackle performance against Wisconsin in 2018, but a leg injury curbed his development during that season.
6th Round, 198th overall	Los Angeles Chargers	Larry Rountree III	5’10 216/RB-Missouri	239/4th Round	Rountree III tallied nearly 4,000 yards rushing and fumbled just five times on over 800 career touches. This despite being somewhat right-hand dominant as a runner at times. He has active feet that can step in-and-out of tackles.
7th Round, 241st overall	Los Angeles Chargers	Mark Webb	6’1 210/S-Georgia	274/4th Round	Webb is a former wide receiver who seemed to have a pretty good feel for route combinations working at the team’s Star position the last two seasons. While he frequently was asked to cover tight ends and wide receivers, he also showed some ability to play off the hash marks on occasion.

AFC West, NFL, 2020, 2020, Articles, NFL Draft Recap

2020 NFL Draft recap: AFC West

April 30, 2020 Corey Chavous Leave a comment

Denver Broncos	Notable pick: Muti was unable to stay healthy in either of his final two seasons, but the former college LT has the footwork to demand a look during training camp.
Round, Selection,	Player	School	DN Big Board Rank/ Grade	‘Nasty’ Take:
1 (15)	Jerry Jeudy	6’1 193 WR-Alabama	22/2^nd Round	Jeudy’s ability to run through the reception should immediately make him a highly targeted threat in the Broncos ever-evolving offensive scheme. QB Drew Lock is very accurate on skinny posts into the middle of the field, and that is a route (along with the quick slant) that Jeudy excelled on during school.
2 (46)	K.J. Hamler	5’9 178 WR-Penn State	63/2nd Round	Hamler has a different level of speed of anyone else in the Broncos receiving corps. In an attempt to get him the ball, the Nittany Lions moved him around quite a bit, but there is no doubt that the team could use him on the outside on vertical concepts. He may have gone higher if he had been able to workout for scouts prior to the draft.
3 (77)	Michael Ojemudia	6’1 200 CB-Iowa	215/4th Round	Ojemudia certainly increased his level of play as a senior. Since his days as a high school safety, he has always been physical. In fact, the Hawkeyes matched him on different personnel in 2018 (inside) to take advantage of his size in coverage.
3 (83)	Lloyd Cushenberry	6’3 312 OC-LSU	24/2nd Round	Cushenberry should be able for a job at any of the three interior line positions. Although he was our top-ranked center, there are little doubts about his ability to transition to a guard spot.
3 (95)	McTelvin Agim	6’3 309 DT-Arkansas	159/3rd Round	Agim started his career as a multi-dimensional DE/DT for the Razorbacks but he eventually just grew into the defensive tackle spot. His quickness and ability to gain an edge on opponents should make him a good fit as a four-technique DE for the Broncos.
4 (118)	Albert Okwuegbunam	6’5 260 TE-Missouri	174/4th Round	Okwuegbunam never exactly played to his workout numbers in school, but that doesn’t mean he was not a field-stretching presence. His Red Zone productivity was evident (23 career TDs). Although he improved as a blocker, the team frequently used him more in an H-back/FB type of role within their offense. He may take targets away from Noah Fant due to his relationship with QB Drew Lock.
5 (178)	Justin Strnad	6’3 238 LB-Wake Forest	190/4th Round	Strnad was one of the more active LBs in the ACC the last two seasons and proved his worth in coverage. He may start out on special teams, but he could compete for a backup role in nickel packages at LB.
6 (181)	Netane Muti	6’3 315 OG-Fresno State	134/3rd Round	Where would Muti have gone had he been able to stay healthy in either of his final two seasons. That point is debatable, but what is not up for debate is the aggression he plays the game with down-to-down. His technical deficiencies surround a tendency to dip his head when latching.
7 (252)	Tyrie Cleveland	6’2 209 WR-Florida	249/4th Round	Cleveland flashed as a downfield threat, gunner and kickoff returner in school. His best chance to make the team will be to upend former CFL star Diontae Spencer for the KR role. It won’t be an easy task.
7 (254)	Derrick Tuszka	6’4 247 DE-OLB-North Dakota State	235/4th Round	Tuszka is effective on the move or getting out of his three-point stance. There were even times when the Bison would use him inside (DT) on third downs. His energy gives him an outside chance of making the team despite entering a crowded OLB room.

Denver Broncos first-round pick Jerry Jeudy -the 2018 Biletnikoff Award Winner- averaged 17.2 yards per reception with 26 receiving TDs in his career.

Kansas City Chiefs	Notable pick: Sneed is the type of developmental prospect that the Chiefs have traditionally loved to take over the years. His 4.37 speed will be used most effectively in man coverage. The team will need him to locate the ball down the field but his profile fits their defensive scheme.
Round, Selection,	Player	School	DN Big Board Rank/ Grade	‘Nasty’ Take:
1 (32)	Clyde Edwards-Helaire	5’7 207 RB-LSU	68/2^nd Round	Edwards-Helaire runs option routes, pops off of tacklers in-or-out of the box and competes in every phase of the game. The Chiefs will have a plan for his skill set.
2 (63)	Willie Gay, Jr.	6’2 243 LB-Mississippi State	21/2nd Round	Gay, Jr. was arguably the most explosive LB in this year’s draft class. A litany of suspensions and games missed in 2019 did him no favors. The fact that he remained an integral part of nearly every special teams unit, however, speaks to his football character.
3 (96)	Lucas Niang	6’6 315 OT-TCU	133/3rd Round	Niang is long, relatively light on his feet and aggressive. It can be argued that he was perhaps more impressive as a run blocker.
4 (138)	L’Jarius Sneed	6’1 192 CB-Louisiana Tech	283/4th Round	Sneed didn’t look the part consistently at safety and part of that was due to an uneven feel for the position. What he did do a very good job of was competing in man coverage, which seems to be his favorite thing to do.
5 (177)	Michael Danna	6’2 261/ DE-Michigan, CMU	345/4th Round	Danna moved in-and-out of a number of line spots for Michigan after standing out as an edge defender at CMU. His power and explosiveness stood out in the postseason.
7 (237)	Thakarius “BoPete” Keyes	6’1 202/CB-Tulane	220/4th Round	Keyes has length, patience and positive foot speed. DC Jack Curtis challenged him over a three-year period in loads of man-to-man coverage and he responded favorably.

Kansas City Chiefs fourth-round pick L’Jarius Sneed ran a 4.37 40-yd dash, had a 41″ VJ and went 10’11” in the broad jump at the 2020 NFL Combine. Sneed returned three of his eight career interceptions for touchdowns while at Louisiana Tech.

Las Vegas Raiders	Notable pick: If Robertson produces anywhere near the level of his collegiate productivity, then the Raiders will get at least a viable nickel back candidate. His toughness is exemplary, but his wrap tackling was inconsistent in school.
Round, Selection,	Player	School	DN Big Board Rank/ Grade	‘Nasty’ Take:
1 (12)	Henry Ruggs III	5’11 188 WR-Alabama	43/2nd Round	Ruggs was arguably one of the better kickoff and punt cover guys in the country (17 tackles in career). Aside from starring in those roles, he stood out with his field speed on downfield routes and after the catch.
1 (19)	Damon Arnette	6’0 195 CB-Ohio State	56/2^nd Round	Arnette’s physical playing style didn’t dissipate while playing with a broken hand in 2019. In fact, it could be argued that he took his game to another level. His style fits that of a classic Raiders DB.
3 (80)	Lynn Bowden, Jr.	5’11 203 All-Purpose Kentucky	118/3rd Round	Bowden will have to be located if used in a number of ways, which may in fact be the plan in Las Vegas. If there was ever a player worth hitting the jackpot on in Round 3, then the all-purpose SEC standout fits the bill.
3 (81)	Bryan Edwards	6’3 212 WR-South Carolina	61/2nd Round	While we talked about the Raiders potentially hitting the lottery in Round 3 earlier, they may have doubled down with the selection of Edwards. South Carolina’s all-time leader in receptions is smooth, fast and contains outstanding spatial awareness on the field.
3 (100)	Tanner Muse	6’2 227 S-Clemson	313/5th Round	Muse was Clemson’s Special Teams Player of the Year back in 2016 and took his game to another level each year. His speed was on display when he ran down Ohio State RB J.K. Dobbins in the 2019 CFP semifinal to save a TD.
4 (109)	John Simpson	6’4 321 OG-Clemson	101/3rd Round	Simpson has the burly build and overall wrestling-type background make him tough to get away from once latched. He was the first Clemson offensive lineman selected since 2014.
4 (139)	Amik Robertson	5’8 187 CB-Louisiana Tech	66/2nd Round	Robertson’s production speaks for itself. During his time in Ruston, the former Bulldog notched 14 INTs (265 yds, 3 TDs) and 34 PBUs. In addition, he posted 23.5 tackles for losses.

Las Vegas Raiders first-round pick Damon Arnette was an active four-year contributor for the Buckeyes at the cornerback spot, but he also saw time at nickel back in 2019.

Los Angeles Chargers	Notable pick: The Chargers already have Austin Ekeler and Justin Jackson in the fold and they typically have used a running back by committee approach. If Kelley is going to penetrate the lineup, then his ability to get the grind it out yardage is the route.
Round, Selection,	Player	School	DN Big Board Rank/ Grade	‘Nasty’ Take:
1 (6)	Justin Herbert	6’6 238 QB-Oregon	13/1^st Round	Herbert’s physical skills often outpaced his decision-making but he began to learn how to win the tough games as a senior. Staying in school to get more repetitions proved to be the right decision for the former Duck. Can he eventually compete with the high-octane offenses developing within the division?
1 (23)	Kenneth Murray	6’1 241 LB-Oklahoma	28/2nd Round	Murray improved dramatically in Alex Grinch’s defensive scheme in 2019. His discipline improved but his activity (155 tackles in 2018) largely remained the same.
4 (112)	Joshua Kelley	5’10 214 RB-UCLA, UC-Davis	92/3^rd Round	Kelley used a strong postseason to backup his solid production while at UCLA. His vision may be his strongest asset. Although he wasn’t used much in the passing game, he displays potential as a receiving threat.
5 (151)	Joe Reed	6’0 223 All-purpose-Virginia	149/3rd Round	Reed was used in the screen game to almost serve as an extra RB in 2019. This came a year after averaging nearly 19 yards per catch. His real value comes in the return game.
6 (186)	Alohi Gilman	5’10 202 S-Notre Dame, Navy	183/4th Round	Gilman may be quicker than fast but his play speed stands out. While at Navy, he displayed tremendous timing as a blitzer. His eye speed is outstanding for the position but his effort has stood out on both the punt and kickoff cover units.
7 (220)	K.J. Hill	6’0 196 WR-Ohio State	194/4th Round	Hill had the occasional concentration lapse, but his feel for setting up defenders is without a doubt one of his better characteristics as a route runner. He is strong enough to handle the inside duty of being a slot receiver.

After arriving from the Naval Academy, Los Angeles Chargers sixth-round pick Alohi Gilman posted 94 tackles, 3 TFLs, 2 FFs, 2 INTs and 5 PBUs for the Fighting Irish in 2018.

2019 NFL Draft recap, pick-by-pick: AFC West

May 4, 2019 Neverthere Leave a comment

Lock, the team’s second-round pick, finished his career with 12,193 yards passing (second in SEC history).

Denver Broncos	Notable picks: The team traded its 10th overall pick, yet still got the draft’s 21st player overall at Pick 20. In addition, the team nabbed our 32nd-ranked player in Risner early in the second round. Although Lock was deeper on our board (54th overall), we don’t think the Broncos could have waited any longer to pull the trigger on the third-best QB in the draft. Of the team’s undrafted free agents, Nevada’s Malik Reed has the most suddenness and could have easily been a draft pick. For the second consecutive year, John Elway added solid players to an underrated nucleus. Ultimately, however, this draft’s eventual grade will come down to the development of Lock.
Round, Selection,	Player	School	DN Big Board Rank/ Grade	‘Nasty’ Take:
1 (20) Traded its first round pick (10th overall) to the Pittsburgh Steelers for the team’s	Noah Fant	TE/Iowa	21/1st Round	Although his teammate T.J. Hockenson won the 2018 John Mackey Award, it was Fant who earned first-team All-Big Ten honors as voted on by the coaches. Fant’s 4.5 speed will be a welcome addition down the seams for new quarterback John Flacco.
2 (41)	Dalton Risner	OL/Kansas State	32/2nd Round	It doesn’t take long to understand the value of Risner, who despite having natural lateral quickness, needs to close off the bottom of the pocket more consistently as an outside tackle. If he moves back into the center position (where he started in 2015), then we think he’ll challenge for a starting spot.
2 (42) Acquired from Cincinnati	Drew Lock	QB/Missouri	54/2nd Round	Lock can challenge all parts of the field with range that is comparable to Joe Flacco, the man he is asked to backup initially in Denver. We felt that the former Tiger needed a bridge quarterback and Flacco fits the bill.
3 (71)	Dre’Mont Jones	DT/Ohio State	33/2nd Round	Jones’ outstanding footwork frequently allowed him to work over guards after gaining an edge. For him to become a legitimate starter, he will have to play heavier at the point of attack.
5 (156) Acquired from Minnesota	Justin Hollins	DE-OLB/Oregon	202/4th Round	Hollins proved during 2019 East-West Shrine practicesthat he was at least adequate as an exchange LB. It is a big reason he took home East-West Shrine Game Defensive MVP honors. The former Duck forced eight fumbles in school.
6 (187) Acquired from Carolina	Juwann Winfree	WR/ Colorado, Maryland	425/5th Round	Winfree has unique route-running skill and underrated field speed. The former Terrapin rarely has to idle himself into patterns. The Broncos struck gold by staying in-state a year ago with UDFA Pro Bowler Phillip Lindsay and hope to do so again with its sixth-round pick.

Hardman averaged nearly 21 yards per punt return in 2018 and accounted for eight touchdowns (7 REC, 1 PR).

Kansas City Chiefs	Notable picks: The Chiefs went into the draft looking to add pieces as opposed to having to fill them. One position of note that the team didn’t address until Day 3 is cornerback. Heading into the 2019 campaign, they have a rather unproven group of outside cornerbacks. They will likely have to depend on Kendall Fuller to give them some reps on the flanks after the loss of underrated CB Steven Nelson. In addition, the team is probably depending on Emmanuel Ogbah, who has quietly posted 17 pass break-ups in his career, to be a serviceable left defensive end opposite the recently acquired Frank Clark.
Round, Selection,	Player	School	DN Big Board Rank/ Grade	‘Nasty’ Take:
2 (56) Acquired from Los Angeles via New England via Chicago	Mecole Hardman	All-Purpose/Georgia	72/2nd Round	It doesn’t take long to determine where Hardman is inclined to work. He can become a serious contender for playing time in the slot if he can show increased ball skills and awareness. His biggest strength is the ability to accelerate through the reception, but he left some passes on the field. We think he is one of the top return threats in the draft. `
2 (63) Acquired from Los Angeles	Juan Thornhill	DB/Virginia	179/3rd Round	Thornhill, a former corner at Virginia, doesn’t mind mixing it up in coverage. His biggest weakness came when routes broke away from him (either at safety or corner). The former high school basketball star uses outstanding leaping ability to supplement first-rate instincts. He was used in somewhat of a hybrid role in 2018.
3 (84) Acquired from Seattle	Khalen Saunders	DT/Western Illinois	179/3rd Round	Saunders has some traits that are similar to former Texas DL and current New Orleans Saints DL Malcom Brown. An above average athlete, he was a tough block for guards or tackles. Stamina is a bit of a question mark.
6 (201)	Rashad Fenton	CB/South Carolina	269/4th Round	Have you ever seen a player who may not look as fast as he really is? This is the case for Fenton, who shined as a kickoff returner at various points of his career. His quick-footed nature and overall toughness means he could get looks at the nickel back spot.
6 (214)	Darwin Thompson	RB/Utah State	306/4th Round	An explosive Pro Day forced evaluators to go back to the tape for Thompson. What they found was a patient runner with enough speed to bounce runs outside. A season that featured a 15.3 yards per reception average proved he can catch too.
7 (216) Acquired from San Francisco	Nick Allegretti	OG/Illinois	220/4th Round	The former Illini two-time team captain started 36 straight games to end his career. We feel the right guard position gives him the best chance to earn a roster spot. Why? He shifts his weight on opponents as well as any guard in this year’s draft.

Jacobs (No. 8 pictured) scored 14 touchdowns on just 154 touches in 2018.

Oakland Raiders	Notable pick: Newly-hired GM Mike Mayock selected potential core players who add substance to the roster. Ferrell and Jacobs both played large parts in each of their respective team’s national championship runs. Although Abram represented a personality pick, how different is he from former West Virginia safety Karl Joseph? The selection of Crosby means the team now has a number of edge rushers to throw at teams, even if none of them would be described as a dominant game changer. Mullen, Johnson and college free agent Keisean Nixon join a cornerback group suddenly filled with young talent and depth.
Round, Selection,	Player	School	DN Big Board Rank/ Grade	‘Nasty’ Take:
1 (4)	Clelin Ferrell	DE/Clemson	15/1st Round	Ferrell averaged 17 tackles for loss per year over the course of the last three seasons. His ability to finish on the quarterback is undeniable. The big knock on him was a relative lack of natural bend off the edge. He is long enough to compensate.
1 (24)	Josh Jacobs	RB/Alabama	61/2nd Round	Jacobs’ running style and receiving skill largely mirrors that of the runner who started for the Raiders the last two seasons, Marshawn Lynch when he came out of school. He is just not as fast as Lynch was coming out of school.
1 (27)	Johnathan Abram	S/ Mississippi State, Georgia	52/2nd Round	Somewhat of a Donte Whitner-type (Bills, 49ers), Abram could become a complement to fellow safety Karl Joseph. The former Georgia Bulldog has covered the slot effectively, but we don’t think that’s a role he will be asked to man consistently in the NFL. He will, however, be asked to lock down tight ends.
2 (40)	Trayvon Mullen	CB/Clemson	95/3rd Round	The former high school WR has positive hand-eye coordination and timing. During his two years as a starter, he displayed a keen sense of handling man or zone assignments. At 6-foot-1, 199 pounds, he is an adequate tackler.
4 (106)	Maxx Crosby	DE-OLB/Eastern Michigan	273/4th Round	Crosby’s gangly, unorthodox style conjures up images of former Buffalo Bills star Bryce Paup. For him to make it, he has to play with more sand in the pants.
4 (129) Acquired from Indianapolis	Isaiah Johnson	CB/Houston	139/3rd Round	Johnson’s ability to win in zone coverage comes from his receiving background. In addition, he is one of the top gunners in the 2019 NFL Draft. Standing 6-foot-2, 208 pounds, the former wideout will find playing time in some capacity in Year 1.
4 (137) Compensatory pick acquired from Atlanta	Foster Moreau	TE/LSU	181/3rd Round	Although he wasn’t featured as a receiving tight end at LSU, Moreau contains underrated athleticism and will be a fine on the move or hand in the dirt Y-tight end. It would not be a surprise to see his receiving skills expand at the NFL level. He can create separation at the top of his routes.
5 (149) Acquired from Dallas via Cincinnati	Hunter Renfrow	WR/ Clemson	126/3rd Round	The operative thinking is that Renfrow turns into a multi-year contributor at the slot wide receiver position and you’re done with it…right? What about special teams production for a receiver weighing in the 180-pound range? Despite showing up at the gunner spot (ex: Russell Athletic Bowl ’15), he posted just four career tackles. He did, however, serve as the team’s emergency punter.
7 (230) Acquired from Atlanta	Quinton Bell	Prairie View A&M	N/A	Bell averaged 13.6 yards per catch before transitioning to defense in 2018. He responded with 7.5 quarterback sacks and 10 tackles for losses. He’s bulked up in weight while still maintaining his explosiveness (41 1/2-inch VJ).

Tranquill (No. 23 pictured), a former safety, finished with 292 career tackles for the Fighting Irish.

Los Angeles Chargers	Notable picks: Tillery’s unique athleticism (4.33 20-yard short shuttle) and heavy hands (10 5/8”) offsets an inconsistent pad level. Adderley’s range belies his timed speed. Pipkins has a skill-set and profile that closely mirrors incumbent right tackle Sam Tevi. Stick may be used in a surprise role for the team and Broughton can play multiple positions. Tranquill’s foot speed and safety experience could earn him a role in sub-packages, but we expect him to star on special teams immediately.
Round, Selection,	Player	School	DN Big Board Rank/ Grade	‘Nasty’ Take:
1 (28)	Jerry Tillery	Notre Dame	19/2nd Round	Tillery has all of the tools to be a multi-purpose defensive lineman in the NFL. His style lends itself to somewhat of an Arik Armstead-type (San Francisco 49ers). Both players were bunch producers in school.
2 (60)	Nasir Adderley	DB/ Delaware	43/2nd Round	Adderley’s timed speed does not accurately represent the speed that really matters….his eye speed. His ability to read the quarterback’s body language really was unparalleled in this year’s draft class. His major key will be finding a balance when it comes to making open field tackles consistently in space.
3 (91)	Trey Pipkins	OT/Sioux Falls	119/3rd Round	He displays positive bend, impressive mobility and an element of finish necessary to compete on Sundays. His short lateral kick-slide will have to deepen if he is going to stay outside. We went into how his outstanding NFL Combine workout would be the final factor in swaying NFL coaches and personnel.
4 (130)	Drue Tranquill	LB/Notre Dame	194/4th Round	The former safety uses his 4.5 speed to make plays all over the field. His stock stayed steady due to his ability to return from a couple of freak ACL injuries during school. It didn’t stop him from finishing his career with 292 tackles and 25 tackles for losses in 52 career appearances.
5 (166)	Easton Stick	QB/North Dakota State	301/4th Round	His 4.6 40-yard dash time opens eyes, but maybe not even as much as his blistering 6.65 time in the three-cone drill. It is a big reason he rushed for 41 TDs in school. He doesn’t have former Bison QB Carson Wentz’s arm, but he does have even more impressive athleticism. The Chargers will find a way to incorporate it on a deep team.
6 (200)	Emeke Egbule	OLB/ Houston	490/5th Round	His defensive coordinator Mark D’Onofrio said of Egbule, “he’s our most versatile player in space.” It will be imperative for him show these traits for scouts during training camp to earn a roster spot.
7 (242)	Cortez Broughton	DL/ Cincinnati	247/4th Round	In a deep 2019 defensive tackle class, it probably isn’t a surprise that Broughton was one of the overlooked prospects. Aside from notching 16.5 tackles for losses in 2018, he also put together a pretty good week at the 2019 East-West Shrine Game. Icing on the cake for Broughton came on Cincinnati’s Pro Day, where he notched an impressive 33 1/2-inch vertical jump at 293 pounds.

Denver Broncos vs Los Angeles Chargers, 11-18-18: In-game report

November 19, 2018 Troy Jefferson Leave a comment

Offensive miscues and special teams errors doomed the Los Angeles Chargers against a division rival. The Denver Broncos ended the Chargers six-game win streak in a hard-fought 23-22 affair. DraftNasty’s Troy Jefferson gives his impressions in this in game report:

Chargers offensive line

The Chargers offensive line stood out in pass protection against the Broncos, who rank in the top ten in sacks. While San Diego did give up three sacks, two of those were more of a reflection of quarterback Philip Rivers holding on to the ball too long rather than poor offensive line execution. The Chargers out-gained the Broncos by 154 yards, which is a testament to how the offensive line played. The unit’s best work may have came on a screen pass to running back Melvin Gordon, where offensive lineman Dan Feeney and Michael Schofield III got out in front to pave the way for a 32-yard gain. Holding a defense that features Von Miller and Bradley Chubb is no easy task, but the Los Angeles Chargers should be proud of the offensive line’s performance on Sunday.

Chargers miscues

Veteran quarterback Philip Rivers will shoulder a fair load of the blame after he threw two interceptions against the Broncos. Despite throwing for 401 yards, the interceptions not only cost the Chargers potential points but allowed Denver to score in both instances. In addition to subpar quarterback play, the Chargers committed 10 penalties in the first half and settled for two field goals.

“Those are things we’ve stayed away from — penalties and turnovers — but they showed up today. For whatever reason, I don’t know. We’ll figure it out, though,” head coach Anthony Lynn said in the post game press conference.

Receiver Keenan Allen was a little less diplomatic.

“I don’t think they played well at all,” Allen said after the game, via ESPN.com. “We dominated the game. Turnovers, we gave them some points and that’s what happened. They suck.”

To make matters worse, Mike Badgley missed an extra point in the third quarter. Denver no doubt earned their victory by driving the length of the field to get into field goal range as time expired but leading up to the final drive, Los Angeles certainly squandered plenty of its opportunities.

Denver rookie playmakers

Former Oregon running back Royce Freeman has rushed for 382 yards (4.2 YPC) and five touchdowns for the Broncos in 2018 (As of 11/27/18).

The Broncos have a talented trio of rookies to rely on offensively. Running backs Phillip Lindsay and Royce Freeman complement each other well as Lindsay primarily serves as the third down motion back and Freeman the more traditional power back. On the outside at receiver, Courtland Sutton also showed his playmaking ability. Lindsay finished with 106 combined rushing and receiving yards while Freeman had 23 yards rushing and a touchdown. Sutton caught three passes for 78 yards. Lindsay, who was undrafted, has been the most productive out of the bunch, rushing for 670 yards and catching 24 passes for 187 yards on the season. If Denver can get more consistent production out of Sutton and Freeman, the Broncos could have a strong young nucleus on offense going forward.

2018 NFL Draft Recap, pick-by-pick: AFC West

May 5, 2018 Neverthere Leave a comment

AFC WEST

Denver Broncos	Freeman went over the 100-yard mark 31 times during his four-year run in Eugene. Notable pick: Chubb will get a lot of one-on-one matchups working opposite Von Miller. It won’t be good for AFC West opponents. Freeman may be the grinder the Broncos need to control the clock and set up the play action pass game for Case Keenum. This could take pressure off of the team’s offensive tackles.
Round, Selection,	Player	School	DN Big Board Rank/ Grade	‘Nasty’ Take:
1 (5)	Bradley Chubb DE-6’4 269	NC State	1 (1^st Round)	Chubb took his game to the next level in 2017 by adding a deft swipe move to complement his ability to post tackles. He will get even more tutelage from the NFL’s best in Von Miller.
2 (40)	Courtland Sutton WR-6’3 218	SMU	28 (2^nd Round)	Sutton has all of the skills to develop into a No. 1 WR in the NFL. It won’t happen if he doesn’t eliminate the drops that show up once per game.
3 (71)	Royce Freeman RB-5’11 229	Oregon	27 (2^nd Round)	He ran for over 5,600 yards and scored 60 TDs in school. At nearly 230 pounds, he runs with a light-footed nature.
3 (99)	Isaac Yiadom CB-6’1 190	Boston College	166 (4^th Round)	Yiadom is one of the better cornerbacks in the draft playing with his back to the ball. Despite just adequate recovery speed, his length (32 ¼” arms) increases his recovery ability.
4 (106)	Josey Jewell LB-6’1 234	Iowa	104 (3^rd Round)	Jewell’s instincts are top-notch and he is adept at making in-game adjustments to combat offensive personnel.
4 (113)	DaeSean Hamilton WR-6’1 202	Penn State	63 (2^nd Round)	Hamilton brings slot quickness and outside wide receiver size to a unit that will move him around to create mismatches.
5 (156)	Troy Fumagalli TE-6’5 247	Wisconsin	337 (5^th Round	Fumagalli is yet another pass receiving option for the Broncos in the middle of the field for Case Keenum. He’s not a burner, but he catches everything in his area code.
6 (217)	Keishawn Bierria LB-6’0 230	Washington	342 (5^th Round)	Back-to-back second-team All-Pac-12 selection was a factor on the kickoff team in school…too.
7 (226)	David Williams RB-5’11 229	Arkansas, South Carolina	301 (4^th Round)	The Broncos have struck gold in the past with late round running backs. The former Gamecock averaged 5.6 yards per carry for the Razorbacks in a pro-style scheme in 2017.

Kansas City Chiefs	Nnadi may not look the part, but he produced 9.5 QB sacks and 20.5 tackles for losses for the Seminoles over the last two seasons (2016-17). Notable pick: Watts was dinged for average workouts prior to the draft. When teams look back at this draft, he could become one of the value picks in this class.
Round, Selection,	Player	School	DN Big Board Rank/ Grade	‘Nasty’ Take:
2 (46)	Breeland Speaks DL-6’3 283	Ole Miss	77 (3^rd Round)	Speaks has the look of current Jacksonville Jaguars DL Malik Jackson. Like Jackson, he may be underrated coming out of school. Speaks is athletic enough to play either the end or OLB spots.
3 (75)	Derrick Nnadi DT-6’1 317	FSU	109 (3^rd Round)	For a 6-foot-1 defensive tackle, he established lockout on a consistent basis. Very good instincts.
3 (100)	Dorian O’Daniel LB-6’0 5/8 223	Clemson	162 (3^rd Round)	O’Daniel covers the slot, RBs and is an outstanding special teams prospect.
4 (124)	Armani Watts S-5’10 202	Texas A&M	64 (3^rd Round)	Watts may have been the most active run-defending safety in the SEC. He contributed 4 INTs in 2017.
6 (196)	Tremon Smith CB-5’11 186	Central Arkansas	248 (4^th Round)	Smith was a terror in 2017 once he got his hands on the ball. He drops his weight to sink vs. intermediate routes and plays through the hands of bigger WRs in the Red Zone.
6 (198)	Kahlil McKenzie DT-6’4 314	Tennessee	338 (5^th Round)	Despite being a DT in school, the Chiefs plan on moving him to the guard position. He looked good at this spot in pre-draft workouts.

Oakland Raiders	Townsend will be counted on to replace former Oakland punter Marquette King. He produces hang times that average in the 4.6 range and placed 27 punts inside the 20-yard line for the Gators in 2017. Notable pick: Hall could end up becoming the team’s best find. His collegiate productivity was unmatched and his versatility will open up the team’s defensive fronts. Despite average length for a DT, he produced 29 pass break-ups in school.
Round, Selection,	Player	School	DN Big Board Rank/ Grade	‘Nasty’ Take:
1 (15)	Kolton Miller OT-6’9 309	UCLA	65 (3^rd Round)	Miller has rare athleticism for a man of his size. His 23 career starts were a result of missing most of 2016 due to injury. Developing an anchor will be a key for Miller.
2 (57)	P.J. Hall DL-6’0 308	Sam Houston St.	23 (2^nd Round)	Hall posted 86.5 tackles for losses in school and blocked 14 kicks. In addition, he found time to post four interceptions.
3 (65)	Brandon Parker OT-6’7 305	NC A&T	126 (3^rd Round)	Parker –much like Miller- needs improvement in terms of core strength. Also –like Miller- he has positive finishing instincts as a blocker.
3 (87) Trade from Los Angeles Rams	Arden Key DE-6’5 238	LSU	84 (3^rd Round)	If he can return to his 2016-form, the Raiders may have gotten another sub-package pass rush threat.
4 (110)	Nick Nelson CB-5’10 200	Wisconsin, Hawaii	60 (2^nd Round)	Nelson’s meniscus injury prior to the draft caused a slight slide. He may have gone a round higher. Dating back to his days at Hawaii, his footwork has always been his best friend.
5 (140)	Maurice Hurst DL-6’1 291	Michigan	76 (3^rd Round)	Medical concerns made Hurst a Day 3 pick. The Raiders got a player who is instant off the ball and wins with a slippery nature. He will push Eddie Vanderdoes.
5 (173)	Johnny Townsend P-6’1 211	Florida	437 (5^th Round)	This may have been the team’s most important pick for its defense. The release of Marquette King necessitated it earlier than expected. Townsend struggled out-kicking his coverage units in school.
6 (216)	Azeem Victor LB-6’2 240	Washington	365 (5^th Round)	It seems like ages since Victor produced 95 tackles and 9.5 tackles for losses (2015). His final season was filled with suspension and off the field issues.
7 (228)	Marcell Ateman WR-6’4 216	Oklahoma State	213 (4^th Round)	While not sudden, Ateman is athletic enough use his 78-inch wingspan to dwarf CBs in the Red Zone. Averaged nearly 20 yards per catch in 2017.

Los Angeles Chargers	Nwosu (No. 42 pictured) not only posted 9.5 QB sacks for the Trojans in 2017, he also broke up 13 passes. Notable picks: James should be a Day 1 starter. Nwosu could very well do the same. Either way, the selection of Jones may be the most important pick of the first three selections. The Chargers ranked 31^st versus the run in 2017.
Round, Selection,	Player	School	DN Big Board Rank/ Grade	‘Nasty’ Take:
1 (17)	Derwin James S-6’2 215	FSU	46 (2^nd Round)	The Chargers are going to look for James to be an intimidating eighth man in the box as well as the team’s enforcer in the middle of the field.
2 (48)	Uchenna Nwosu OLB-6’3 251	USC	61 (2^nd Round)	Nwosu will challenge Kyle Emanuel for playing time immediately at an outside linebacker spot. His ability to affect the three-step passing game was rare in school (20 PBUs).
3 (84)	Justin Jones DT-6’2 311	NC State	144 (3^rd Round)	Jones posted 8.5 tackles for loss in 2017. While not a pass rusher, he can hold the point of attack and will be a good rotational player in the Chargers defensive front.
4 (119)	Kyzir White S-6’2 216	West Virginia	197 (4^th Round)	White is a good blitz threat with plus upper body strength. His ability to control stalk blockers could land him a spot in sub-packages.
5 (155)	Scott Quessenberry OC-6’4 310	UCLA	110 (3^rd Round)	Quessenberry can hopefully improve the Chargers ability to move bodies in the run game.
7 (251)	Justin Jackson RB-5’11 199	Northwestern	265 (4^th Round)	Jackson’s vision is apparent. Despite a WR-like build, he was tough enough to withstand over 1,100 carries in his career.
