Shaq Barrett also has an unreal PFF preseason grade. I still say Wade Phillips and Kubiak have to be startled at how much talent the Broncos have laying around.

I'm so happy we got RayCan't remember who it was on here but just to give you an idea of the preseason that Shane Ray has had so far he has graded out as the best 1st round pick so far through the first 3 games. According to PFF Shane Ray has a +6.2 grade. The next closest 1st round pick rookie is Leonard Williams with a +2.8 grade.
So far this kid has proven to be worth everything it took to trade up and get him. He has graded out positively in every game against the run and pass. Before the draft some were saying size wise he couldn't hand the run game but so far he is showing this game is not bigger than him.
That would have been Crash. But he'll come around BroncoGreg also wasn't enthralled.
I thought it was Crash. Now I will say Ray hasn't looked as good as Barrett and hasn't put up the stats but sometimes the stats just don't tell the whole story of how disruptive a guy is. I would say the same thing about Antonio Smith. There is a reason he ranked as the 6th best Interior DL player last year. He doesn't put up a ton of sacks but he knows how to really collapse the pocket helping other guys to get the stats. The Safety is the perfect example of that play doesn't happen without Antonio Smith driving his guy right into the face of Kaepernick.
Exacta mungo. Both have looked very good to me and as long as Smith doesn't suffer any legal stuff, he is going to be a big asset for that D.In fairness, Ray was playing more time against 1's than Shaq did.
It was more about " rolling" and that's why some got waived.Did everyone smoke a joint?

The only thing I don't like is his personality that is it .. to be honest ...never have formed any opinion on his playing as of yet .. when he talks for me it is worse than someone scratching on chalk board .. I was hoping he was a brilliant player to make it easier for me to root for him is all ..I have never pulled for a Broncos player to suck ever . Why I did not want his number with my name is he is not my cup of tea as a person .
Yeah I actually thought he presented himself quite well during and since his arrest. I`ve def seen a lot worse from players who messed up.Hmm I thought he has done pretty well handling himself in the media. I mean for a guy that got busted a week before the draft I really appreciated how he owned up to his mistake. He didn't run from it or try to pass on blame to others. It is why I actually felt better at the idea of us taking him as usually somebody who can come out and own his mistakes like that is somebody who knows he did wrong and wants to do better. When you then look at how Randy Gregory handled his situation he just kind of ran from it. Or look at Sheldon Richardson who is pleading not guilty to the charges against him and him coming before the media saying he didn't do anything wrong even though he was caught going what 120 mph with a child in the back seat running from police. At least Shane Ray owned up to his mistake and wants to show through his actions that he can do better. He has a great mentor in Ware and Miller to help him keep that promise.

Crash, I can respect your opinion.
If you want to choose a player based on interviewing, I'd nominate Kenny Anunike. He is obviously bright, articulate and has a great voice. If you can ever catch an interview with him, I highly recommend taking the time to do so.
