Remembering when the media made Broncos draft picks

The 2018 draft is over and every team is happy about its selections.

This is especially true in Denver, where John Elway and the Broncos picked the best defensive player in this year’s draft, Bradley Chubb of North Carolina State.

All around the NFL the choices are made in as clandestine an atmosphere as possible.

No team wants anyone else to know their thinking, which is entirely logical.

But there was a time in Broncos history when the press literally, honestly and truly, made one draft selection each year for the Broncos.

Only two individuals remain active from that group of media members — Woody Paige of The Gazette and myself.
