You still have walker too...can never have too many guys who can get to the QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaldyBronco Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I love Chubb. But is he in a similar spot as Walker last year? Do we change our scheme? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly from last year, I think Butt is our best hope there. Isiaih McKenzie was an awful pick, because he literally had the same skill set as C-Henderson, and the same flaws. Elway's fallen in love with straight line speed, when there is so much more to success on the field. Short area quickness, closing speed, ability to run patterns (WR) or turn/cut/chase (CB), hands, etc. D-Henderson might help for RB depth, but JC playing so much killed his development. UDFA wise, Jamal Carter is the guy on D. Plus, we did get a decent 1st year's learning from Rios. He might be sadly more ready to help than Langley is...sigh at that Day 2 draft last year. Still 1 more to give C-Henderson & Langley before we start to draw conclusions, but man... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Won't really be necessary. Remember, Wolfe is no lock to be OK, and he's 10M+ from now on. Harris is the other guy we can rely on. That's literally it. Walker we hope will develop, but if he does, we have a good problem. Gotsis made progress - but he was a pure run stuffer within a rotation. It's safe to say without a huge leap forward, it's another bust pick, given the Rd2 price. That's the problem - if he was a Rd4 flyer, that's an OK result. And if someone took him - let them. We can't be attached to high-tool, low-skill guys who need time as Day 2 picks ALL the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul-mac Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Another point about Chubb, remember we made that move where Von Miller now reports to the defensive line coach whereas the rest of the OLBs report to the LB coach? That makes me think we're moving towards a scheme like what the Seahawks/Jaguars/Falcons have run in the past where you have a bigger DE, two DTs, one "Leo" and then your normal LB's Von Miller is obviously going to be the Leo, Chubb is a great option to play RDE in that scheme with Wolfe providing the interior pressure on third down.

DLs rotate regularly. Gotsis may not even be available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1234567 Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Soooo glad we didn't over think this. I nearly had a stroke when Allen was still available at 5. We got our man! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKRNA Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Love the pick, nuf said. On another note, I looked at spotrac and noticed Von's cap number goes up from $9.75 million this year to $25 million in 2019 and 2020. I wouldn't expect much of a FA crop next year. Our draft picks, last years included are really going to have to step up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BullsandBroncos Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Demarcus Walker is in a make or break year inmy opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walker definitely needs to show some improvement. Though, he was jacked around a bit last year with the lack of depth at OLB. Walker’s greatest strength was rushing from the inside. If he can fulfill that potential and live up to his draft slot it would be huge for the front 7. Miller/Chubb coming off the edge with Walker providing length and pressure up the middle would be nasty. A full offseason to add strength and bulk up a little bit may be exactly what Walker needed.

kansas bob Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 It will take Walker a while to learn how to play DE in the NFL. Right now he is a product of poor coaching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BroncoBruin Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Whoever coaches Florida State’s defense seems to have no clue what they’re doing. DeMarcus Walker and Josh Sweat were both mostly featured in roles totally contrary to their strengths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
