I'm tired of us running a scheme without a true fullback. We put in fillers that don't belong in that position. This move would tremendously help us in short downs, in the red zone, for our run blocking. Plus the man can play different positions and can catch. This move would be a serious physical upgrade to our offense....Please, oh please Mr. Shannahan change your ways and bring us in some true beastly talent at fullback so we can start being more physical. WE NEED OWEN IN 08'..... Owen Schmitt would be an excellent early fourth round pick for us. I’m tired of us running a scheme without a true fullback.

Dizon would be a great addition to our Linebacker core since Gold is probably gone. Webster is all right but is not the answer. Wheatley would be a great addition to our cb's just from learning from two of the best. Also, he would be a great kick and punt returner. Why is no one talking more about Dizon or Wheatley from CU.

Throughout his West Virginia career, he went through like five different face masks and he was still tougher than anyone else on the field at any given time. He'd be a great Bronco, as would Bryant from A&M, as would Talib from Kansas. He could be a punt returner and a wideout/corner, perhaps the latest version of Champ Bailey!

I thought that Dizon, the LB from Colorado, looked really good. He's got a non stop motor and is really physical. The LSU LB Highsmith was the best in coverage. That man can cover some ground. Mike Singletary sounded like he really liked Highsmith. Wheeler, a Georgia Tech product had Singletary riding him all day. I find it interesting that last year Singletary rode Buster Davis the same way during the week of preparation and was obviously nonplussed. Davis was cut during training camp before the 2007 season even began. I think that Denver needs to get back to it's true running philosophy and that means getting a premium Fullback to shield our smaller running backs. Razorback FB Payton Hillis catches the ball well out of the backfield, is a very good runner in his own right, and was a punishing blocker who stood out amongst an offensive unit that had a fantastic running game in '07. I'm sorry that we won't be spending a high draft pick on a CB this year because Troy's Leodis McKelvin has some of the most amazing skills that I have seen in a long time. I know he needs to work on his hands but his ability to jump a route and his quickness are amazing. He looks like a smaller version of Bailey. Shanahan said that he wants to stay away from free agency and build through the draft. Did anyone see him at the practices? I saw Reid, Edwards, Mangini, and even Gruden there but no Shanahan. Now I admit that I have never seen him at these functions, even the Combine, but I think if he's going to have the last say in these matters he should get down there and take a look at these guy's for himself.

Adibi may be the 2nd rounder or that may be where the next true full time running back gets selected. Someone mentioned drafting Bryant out of A&M before, that’s looking like a solid idea.

With our LT position in question, we are gonna need a stud fullback to compensate. Owen Schmitt would look real good in Orange and Blue.
