The first round of the 2012 NFL Draft came and went without the Denver Broncos making a single selection after the team traded down, as we expected they would. Going into day two of the draft, the team has options, with eight total selections.
“Our board looked the same, and we have the same players at No. 36 than we would have had at No. 31,” Vice President of Football Operations John Elway said following the first round of the draft. “We don’t have a new player yet, but we like where we sit. We’re excited.”
With picks in the second (36th and 57th), third (87th), fourth (101, 108 and 120), fifth (137th) and sixth (188th) rounds, the team has what...

Denver Broncos Draft Twitter reactions
The Denver Broncos finally participated in the draft on Friday night after trading out of the first round on Thursday.
During the first round of the 2012 NFL Draft, the Denver Broncos traded their 25th pick to the New England Patriots for a fourth rounder and the 31st pick. The Broncos then traded the 31st pick and the fourth rounder from New England to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers...
Denver Broncos select Derek Wolfe, Grade C+
The Denver Broncos addressed an obvious area of weakness, and did so with a player who should be able to come in and be reasonably effective. However, Derek Wolfe was most definitely not the top defensive tackle on the board.
Brandon Thompson, Devon Still and possibly a few others should have come off the board before Wolfe, who isn’t the most physically gifted player and appeared...
Maurice Clarett Loves Jon Gruden, Not a Big Fan of Mel Kiper Jr., Still Major Draft Bust
The Denver Broncos shocked the world by drafting Maurice Clarett in the third round in 2005. He has since gone from big time running back to armchair quarterback. Clarett, whose off-the-field trouble derailed any chance he had of enjoying a successful NFL career, decided to utilize Twitter during the first two days of this year's NFL draft, and he's been very opinionated...

Webster, 34, who last played for the Denver Broncos in 2008, was indicted in June on charges of sexual battery, gross sexual imposition and five counts of unlawful sexual conduct with a 15-year-old girl.

Elway picks son's friend over Tim Tebow
With the Denver Broncos second round pick of former Arizona State quarterback Brock Osweiler, reasons for some of the team's recent decisions have become a little more clear. Apparently, the Broncos new draftee already has ties to the Broncos President John Elway.
Osweiler told DenverBroncos.com in an interview today, “Jack (Elway) is one of my best friends. We lived one...
Denver Broncos Draft Quarterback Brock Osweiler as Understudy for Peyton Manning
Maybe trading Tim Tebow was a good thing for the Broncos. In the second round of the NFL draft on Friday night, Denver picked quarterback Brock Osweiler with the 25th pick -- 57th overall. The former Arizona State quarterback only spent one full season as a starter in college. In 2011, he finsihed 326-of-516 for 4,036 yards and 26 touchdowns. In 2009 and 2010, he was mainly used...
Draft dream scenario comes true for Osweiler
Before the Denver Broncos inked free agent and future Hall of Fame QB Peyton Manning, the AFC West champions were showing great interest in former ASU signal caller Brock Osweiler. Evident by their second round draft selection tonight, that interest never waned despite the Broncos’ colossal signing.

Sorry I am running late today! I slept in after staying up late mostly complaining about the Denver Broncos first actual day of drafting. I’m hoping for some VALUE picks today, rather than more reaches. Go Broncos!

KSK 2012 NFL Draft Live Blog
That sound you hear is thousands upon thousands of mock drafts, painstakingly updated and agonized over for months by draftniks (I believe an old Soviet term for “asshole sportswriter”), becoming instantly useless now that the draft has arrived. The only thing saving any of them from being disregarded is the possibility of being fodder to mock a prominent blowhard for a botched...

Broncos Looking To Trade Down In The First Round
The Broncos have fielded multiple calls about their No. 25 pick in the first round and could trade down, ESPN's Adam Schefter told KDSP-FM in Denver. That would fall in line with John Elway's sentiments at his press conference Monday, as he said that the Broncos were open to a deal but "preferably, we'd like to go back."

Indianapolis Colts full of Luck
Joe Montana, John Elway, Jim Kelly,Peyton Manning, Tom Brady. Usually an NFL team considers themselves lucky to land a Hall of Fame quarterback, but it rarely happens where the luck continues and you have the ability to draft one just after releasing another. For the Indianapolis Colts that is reality as they make Andrew Luck the number one overall pick in the 2012 NFL draft.
