JBURGE Posted March 20, 2021 Author Share Posted March 20, 2021 2028 Off-Season - Denver Broncos I have been officially announced as the Head Coach and GM of the Denver Broncos! This team honestly isn't terrible, it has some decent pieces and looks like it is heading in the right direction, but they're not my players. So we will be ripping it apart! I don't even really know where to begin with this. I'm not going to post a depth chart until after the first draft because I am going to end up getting rid of a ton of these starters anyway, and building up my picks this year and next. I do have the 1st pick though, which is helpful. Let's get to work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBURGE Posted March 20, 2021 Author Share Posted March 20, 2021 2028 Scouting I assumed I was going to lose all of my scouting when I changed teams, and I was correct. Thankfully I had tghe foresight to create my board on here so I could go back in on Madden and recreate it. I did not, however, take a super close look at them before I moved it over, so I don't have star ratings for this draft.

I don't really have any needs, because I need everything, but I definitely want to hit my priority positions. 2028 Team Needs Everything QB LB EDGE WR OL CB These are my main targets. I am not too converned about the running game yet, I need an OL first, unless there is some stud HB I can't pass on, and I didn't scout any of them in the first 4 rounds because why would I with Marcus Jennings. There is a QB in this class, AJ Smith, who is the first 1st round talent QB in I think 3 drafts. I think I might have to pick him, but definitely not with #1. I am going to waive my new rule for this year only (only 3 picks in the top 64, & can't trade for picks this year) and go with the 2 per round, and then adopt that for next year. I just have a bunch of players to trade, and will also be trading down from #1 almost certainly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBURGE Posted March 20, 2021 Author Share Posted March 20, 2021 TRADE BRONCOS RECEIVE EAGLES RECEIVE - 2028 1.15 - - WR JERRY JEUDY 94 SS Was this a mistake? Probably. Would be good to have a good WR if I draft a QB. But the Eagles love WRs so much in this league. TRADE BRONCOS RECEIVE PANTHERS RECEIVE - 2028 3rd - - OLB BRADLEY CHUBB 87 SS Another OG Bronco that has to go. TRADE BRONCOS RECEIVE PACKERS RECEIVE - 2028 4th - - DE MARCUS SPIDELL 90 XF - 2029 1st - - - - - - Marcus Spidell was drafted as the 1st overall pick in 2022. He is entering the last year of his deal, and is the Broncos 2nd best player, and only X Factor. He didn't want to be a part of a rebuild, so we moved him to the NFC. We get a 1st next year and a 4th this year. This will probably screw me in terms of picks next year. I will still probably get a 1st rounder for moving down from 1.1, but I will just trade it after for a future 1st. TRADE BRONCOS RECEIVE CARDINALS RECEIVE - 2028 3rd - - TE NOAH FANT 87 S TRADE BRONCOS RECEIVE GIANTS RECEIVE - 2028 5th - - MLB AUSTIN CORBETT 80 N That's enough for now I think. BRONCOS PICKS 2028 1.01 - 1.15 via Packers 2.01 - 3.01 - 3.02 via Panthers 3.11 via Cardinals 4.01 - 4.13 via Packers 5.01 - 5.22 via Giants 6.01 - 7.01 - This looks a little better. I will still get some more picks I think from moving down, but something to work with. 12 picks for now and likely 2/3 of them will start this year. With all of these trades, this team is baaaadddd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBURGE Posted March 20, 2021 Author Share Posted March 20, 2021 2028 NFL Draft BRONCOS PICKS 2028 1.01 - 1.15 via Packers 2.01 - 3.01 - 3.02 via Panthers 3.11 via Cardinals 4.01 - 4.13 via Packers 5.01 - 5.22 via Giants 6.01 - 7.01 - I'm not sure if this is going to be a hard draft or not. I am starting fresh, so really should just be drafting BPA, but I really want to nail this one to start off quickly. I want players who have a chance to win awards, so QB and MLB are priorities. I am running all of the same schemes as before. I hols the first pick in this draft, but don't think I'll be picking 1st. There are some really good players up there, but I have a few players in mind with my 1st round picks and they are not early projections. Let's get the first Broncos draft started!

JBURGE Posted March 20, 2021 Author Share Posted March 20, 2021 (edited) Atlanta is actually offering me two 1sts this year and a 2nd next year. That is interesting lol not sure why they want to be picking 1st. IYou know what, rules be damned. I think that's awesome.

JBURGE Posted March 20, 2021 Author Share Posted March 20, 2021 (edited) That allows DE Donavan June to go #2 to the Panthers. He is 76 overall and looked like a STUD. That was the pick I thought the Falcons would make, but I guess I did have Sean Ford there to slot in at LOLB. Just seems like a huge mistake. DT Spencer Woodson 3rd to the Jags. 76 overall. CB Shonn Higgins 7th to the Bears, 76 overall. Good pick. I'm up at 15. Here's the board. 2028 DRAFT BOARD PROJ TALENT NAME AGE HT WT SCHOOL ARCHTYPE COMBINE PRIORITY? 1M 1E WR SPENCER BOLDEN 23 6.01 186 LOUISVILLE DEEP THREAT 6.8 1M 1E WR MIKE HOWARD 22 5.11 175 TENNESSEE DEEP THREAT 7.0 1M 1M DT JOHN HAYES 23 6.02 312 ALABAMA RUN STOPPER 6.9 1M 1M CB PAUL BROWN 21 6.00 182 USC SLOT - 1M 1M WR BARRY CLAYTON 22 6.01 209 OREGON DEEP THREAT 7.3 1M 1M CB MAX PRICE 22 6.01 205 CLEMSON ZONE 7.1 1M 1M CB CHAD HUNTER 22 5.11 184 TENNESSEE ZONE 6.8 1M 1L OL JAMES CROWDER 21 6.05 320 IOWA STATE AGILE 6.3 1L 1L QB AJ SMITH 21 6.01 232 FLORIDA IMPROVISER 5.8 2E 1E LB RASHAD JACKSON 22 6.00 222 STANFORD RUN STOPPER 7.6 2E 1L LB CARL FLANAGAN 23 6.03 226 AUBURN FIELD GENERAL 7.3 2M 1L LB SHAW BECKHAM 23 6.03 232 USC FIELD GENERAL 7.0 Fairly large board. Man, I did NOT expect Spencer Bolden to still be there. The WR I wanted the most was Clayton, but he want a few picks ago. Bolden ran a 4.31 and was 2nd in agility drills. The issue with taking him is I am targeting QB AJ Smith and LB Rashad Jackson, and I am worried I won't get them at 20 and 26. There are two other LBs I like. But do I want to be taking a 23 year old WR and risk losing possible franchise cornerstones? The answer is no. BRONCOS PICK 2028 1.15 QB AJ SMITH 6.01 232 21 AGE STR ARM 72 IMPROV 72 SCRMBL 72 72 OVR This was the right call. At leats, I hope. Smith will have **** all to throw to, but he will start day 1. I have a kinda young 83 overall QB to move on from next year. Edited March 20, 2021 by JBURGE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBURGE Posted March 20, 2021 Author Share Posted March 20, 2021 I have skipped ahead to 20, and here's the board. 2028 DRAFT BOARD PROJ TALENT NAME AGE HT WT SCHOOL ARCHTYPE COMBINE PRIORITY? 1M 1E WR SPENCER BOLDEN 23 6.01 186 LOUISVILLE DEEP THREAT 6.8 1M 1E WR MIKE HOWARD 22 5.11 175 TENNESSEE DEEP THREAT 7.0 2E 1E LB RASHAD JACKSON 22 6.00 222 STANFORD RUN STOPPER 7.6 2E 1L LB CARL FLANAGAN 23 6.03 226 AUBURN FIELD GENERAL 7.3 2M 1L LB SHAQ BECKHAM 23 6.03 232 USC FIELD GENERAL 7.0 2L 1L DT THAD MONK 21 6.04 295 IOWA RUN STOPPER 6.3 2L 2E DT SEAN HICKMAN 22 6.05 300 AUBURN SPEED RUSH 6.4 Okay, crap. Spencer Bolden is still there.... no shot he makes it to 26. I am just not confident at all that Rashad Jackson makes it. This is why I want Jackson.... he is a little undersized, but he is 1st at ROLB at 5 combine drills, and 4th at bench. 4.61 40 is good but not ground breaking, but he will be a high 80s speed. Now, Carl Flanagan ran a 4.44, so if I missed Jackson I could always go there, but right now I am thinking I will try to ghet both. I really can't risk not getting one of my top 2 LBs though. They are both Early 2nd and that means they could go as early as 20. BRONCOS PICK 2028 1.20 LB RASHAD JACKSON 6.00 222 22 AGE RUN STP 75 PASS 74 FLD GEN 73 75 OVR 2/2. Right call! He needs a bit of work but man, this is going pretty damn well so far! I hope one of these guys is above star, but even if not they hjave a good chance at progressing before their 2nd contract. I pick again at 26. Yes, 3 1st rounders. I don't care. I have 1 2nd. Next year I will start the 3 picks in the top 64 with max 2 each round.
