ASU offensive lineman Sam Jones drafted by hometown Broncos

Usually when a team has that kind of talent they don’t finish in the bottom five of the league. He has really good feet technique – rip, swim move, everything with him.

Oregon’s all-time leading rusher was selected by the Broncos in the third round of the National Football League draft on Friday night.

Many projections have Hernandez being drafted in the first round and if that were to happen, it would the first time a UTEP Miner would have been selected in the first round of the NFL Draft in 50 years. Sam Bradford is still most likely going to be ahead of him on the draft chart but we all know that the fragile veteran is always just one play away from landing on injured reserve for the rest of the season.

Quarterbacks Josh Allen and Josh Rosen were still on the board when Denver made its pick. Which brings us back to the Browns, who pick again at four. He’s inaccurate, he’s careless with the ball and he’s a USC guy which screams bust. The Colts had traded down from No. 3 with the New York Jets.

Harris Jr. wasn’t the only member of the Broncos defense that liked the selection. “I think as a running back, that is definitely important”. I was fortunate to see patient and aspiring broadcaster, Austin speak at the St. Jude for their yearly “Country Cares for St. Jude Kids” seminar in January. That doesn’t mean he’ll be a great quarterback or one Chiefs’ fans fear. Bierra and Jewell will join an inside linebacker room in Denver that includes Brandon Marshall, Todd Davis, Zaire Anderson and Jerrol Garcia-Williams.

“Marcus was a four-year starter for us and was one of our leaders in the secondary for much of his career”, Franklin said.

Finally, around 12:45 p.m. Saturday, Hamilton’s iPhone lit up with a Denver area code, and his spirits brightened from languishing low-to Mile High. “It’s going to be quick and short and explosive and getting around to the quarterback”. With two more day-two picks they still have opportunity to address those needs.
