With Broncos eyeing running backs in draft, versatile Jadarian Price says, ‘I think they like me’

After barely playing football prior to arriving at Wyoming, TE John Michael Gyllenborg is an NFL prospect
INDIANAPOLIS — It’s less than 500 miles from John Michael Gyllenborg’s home in the Kansas City, Missouri, area to Indianapolis, but several years ago his road from there to the NFL scouting combine would have been best measured in light years. Gyllenborg didn’t play tackle football until he was a senior at Rockhurst High School…

With linebacker one of the ‘musts’ on their list, Broncos get busy at NFL combine
INDIANAPOLIS — Having the No. 30 pick in the NFL draft, the Broncos might welcome a scenario similar to last year’s first round. Just one inside linebacker was selected and he went No. 31.

Recent history says Broncos can find a valuable player at No. 9 in NFL draft
If history has anything to do with who the Broncos pick at No. 9 overall Thursday night, it likely means Denver won’t take a quarterback. The last quarterback taken ninth in the NFL draft was Marty Domres, who was selected by the San Diego Chargers in 1969. History will likely play no role in who…

Woody Paige: Denver Broncos’ draft grade drops after major omission
Hamlet would evaluate the Broncos’ draft as “To B or to B-minus.” On Saturday, after the NFL’s weird, wacky, wonderful draft concluded, John Elway characterized the Broncos’ orange-picking of 10 new young players as “tremendous’’ and will add “explosiveness’’ to the team.

Woody Paige: Denver Broncos draft first-round talent, deserve high grade
The Broncos were B+roncos. For the first time in franchise history, the Broncos got three first-round players. And possibly a fourth. The Broncos crushed it in the first three rounds of the draft. However, will these Four Horsemen develop into NFL starters, Pro Bowlers and Ring of, or even Hall of, Famers? TBD. Their names…
