The Denver Broncos were hoping to see Bryce Callahan back on the practice field this week Joe Flacco Jersey , but even before practice began Head Coach Vic Fangio was doubtful he would participate on Wednesday. Fangio kept his answers on Callahan short and to the point.Given the long road Callahan has taken to get here, it would be wise at this point to put him on injured reserve. If the foot is still not right enough to move well enough to practice in Week 11, then it doesn’t seem like it will be at all before the season is over. The good news is the Broncos will get Tim Patrick back this week and the team has no other players that are looking like they might not be available on Sunday.The same cannot be said of the Minnesota Vikings who have a very long laundry list of injuries after their hard fought victory over the Dallas Cowboys last week. Any advantage there the Broncos will need if they hope to come out of Minnesota with a win next week.

Denver Broncos NewsThe “wish they were Broncos” offenseNew,15commentsWho’s the one player in the NFL you wish wore orange and blue?MDTI don’t know about you, but I’m an avid Madden player. One of my favorite parts about the franchise is building a team the way I want to, so of course you have to start with a Fantasy Draft. One thing this and consistently following the draft as I do has led to is a rooting interest in a lot of players spread out across the entire league. So what follows is a team of some of my favorite NFL players who would look so dang good with a horse head on their helmet. If only.Quarterback - Baker Mayfield - Cleveland BrownsI’d be lying if I told you I saw greatness in Patrick Mahomes back when he came out of Texas Tech since I barely studied the 2017 class after Elway drafted Paxton Lynch in 2016. It’s that same reason Deshaun Watson is number 2 here. Every game Texans’ game I’ve caught this summer he’s blown me away, and he’d be an insanely good fit in the Rich Scangarello offense, but Baker’s my boy.Last year was the first year since 2012 that I’d have put a quarterback prospect in my S-tier. I think he’s going to be a superstar, and while Denver never had a real shot at him with Cleveland picking 1st overall Bradley Chubb Jersey White , I suspect Elway knew it too. Running back - Christian McCaffrey - Carolina PanthersI mentioned in my Most Valuable Broncos post how I’m not quite a “running backs don’t matter” guy, but they need to provide value outside of just rushing. McCaffrey and Alvin Kamara are the prototypical “weapon” backs you can flex out and rip apart linebackers and safeties in coverage. Throw in McCaffrey’s lineage and he’s my obvious pick here. Z- Receiver - Julio Jones - Atlanta FalconsJulio’s the kind of guy the most optimistic among us dream Courtland Sutton can blossom into. He’s the closest thing to Megatron since Calvin Johnson retired after the 2015 season: just a complete mismatch. He’s 6’3 220 lbs and runs a 4.3 40 with the kind of acceleration, body control, and route running savvy to embarrass DBs. The Broncos were never going to draft Julio, as they’d just grabbed Demaryius Thomas in 2010 and Von Miller was “the guy” at 2. But, way back in Madden 25 I managed to snag both Megatron and Jones for my offense. That was fun.X-Receiver - JuJu Smith-Schuster - Pittsburgh SteelersOne of the things we go over in The Scouting Academy class I’m taking is how big a deal matchups are when you’re studying players. Well, there’s a reason most DB tapes have Pittsburgh on the schedule. With Antonio Brown and Smith-Schuster, they were a complete coverage nightmare last year. Very intrigued by how he’ll adapt as the lone star of that receiving corps.Slot Receiver - Brandin Cooks - Los Angeles Rams One thing you’ll notice from all three of receiver picks is how much speed they bring to the table. While it’s definitely possible to thrive without rockets tied to your cleats in the league, it helps. Cooks is probably the most dangerous Corner and Post runner in football. Boom. A couple hours after I wrote this I ranked the top 6 receivers in the league and realized how highly I think of Adam Thielen. I think I’d still prefer Cooks because of what he can do as a deep threat and how that’d compliment the rest of the Broncos roster Womens Dre'Mont Jones Jersey , but you wouldn’t see me complain if the Viking rode a longboat out to Denver. Tight End - Jack Doyle - Indianapolis ColtsThis may surprise you if you expected someone like Travis Kelce, Zach Ertz, or even Doyle’s teammate Eric Ebron. But since each of these players is simply being added to the current 2019 Broncos roster, Doyle best compliments the skillset of Noah Fant. I’ll admit I had a long moment considering T.J. Hockenson here, but ultimately chose against reuniting the Iowa duo. Let’s move on before I change my mind. Again. Offensive LineLeft Tackle - David Bakhtiari - Green Bay PackersLeft Guard - Ali Marpet - Tampa Bay Buccaneers Center - Matt Paradis - Carolina PanthersRight Guard - Zack Martin - Dallas CowboysRight Tackle - Mitch Schwartz - Kansas City ChiefsThe right tackle position is a tie between Schwartz and Ryan Ramczyk of the Saints. What makes the choice even more painful is how Elway had an opportunity for both. The left side of the line consists of two of the more criminally underrated players in the league. Zack Martin is on the very short list for best linemen in football. My center is a guy I wish the Broncos had managed to keep.Who makes your team Broncos Country? Let me know in the comments.
