Jamie Blatnick, DE – Broncos Undrafted Rookie Report

Found May 10, 2012 on BroncoTalk: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Jamie Blatnick,  Elvis Dumervil,  Robert Ayers,  Jason Hunter,  Jeremy Beal,  Malik Jackson
TEAMS: Denver Broncos,  Oklahoma State Cowboys

A 260-lb. run-stuffer in college, Blatnick doesn’t have the size to continue in that role at the NFL; he either has to produce as a pass rusher or bulk up to suit the defensive line. Scouted as a potential 3-4 OLB tweener, he had eight sacks through the 2011 season while netting 50 tackles. Scouts love his tenacity, durability, strength, and versatility. Decent in pass coverage for a linebacker; more than decent for a defensive end. Three-time Academic All-...

Ronnie Hillman to the Broncos: Fantasy Analysis

Via Win My Fantasy League  |  May 09, 2012
The Denver Broncos traded up to draft running back Ronnie Hillman in the third round. Every time you see a team trade up for a player, you expect the team to get that player involved early and with KnowShown Moreno a PUP list candidate, Hillman should have every opportunity to carve out a change of pace role behind starter Willis McGahee. Hillman uses his blocks well and has displayed...

Denver Broncos sign CB Drayton Florence

Via The Football Fan Spot  |  May 10, 2012
The Broncos needed a 3rd cornerback for next season after cutting Andre Goodman. Goodman was owed 4.62 million in 2012 and at age 34 in August, he was an easy cut. Florence is getting up there in age as well, turning 32 in December, but at 4.5 million over 2 years, he’s a better value. Neither cornerback is particularly good. Andre Goodman ranked 75th on ProFootballFocus last year...
