Reaction: Broncos Select Andy Janovich With 176th Pick
Gary Kubiak has been searching for a fullback option for the offense. A tight end option at fullback has been talked for many years, but it was imperative for the Broncos to draft a true fullback.
Andy Janovich, selected with the 176th pick from the Titans, out of Nebraska, provides an interesting option for the Broncos as a versatile threat in the passing game and the running game. He was not utilized till his last year under new coach Mike Reilly and performed extremely well.
The former walk-on, Janovich has tremendous effort whose work ethic made him now a sixth round draft pick of the Denver Broncos.
Took FB Andy Janovich from Nebraska (6th rd). A tough, hard-nosed player who can block & play special teams. An old-school throwback player.

#Broncos Andy Janovich "I know fullbacks are kind of a dying breed these days. Really excited about having chance to contribute."

The Denver Broncos must find FB. In my mock draft, i have them taking Andy Janovich out of NEB. Do not sleep on Juwan Thompson at FB BTW.

As a fullback, Janovich out-benched 36 of the 45 offensive linemen this year at the NFL Combine. #huskers
