Which players would the Denver Broncos pick if they were to change all of their 2008 draft selections?

The 2008 season was a disappointing year for the Denver Broncos. They finished with an 8-8 record for the third-straight year, which sealed the fate of Mike Shanahan as head coach.

In the 2008 NFL Draft, they had more misses than they had hits. So I thought that it would be fun to go back in time and do a re-draft, selecting all new players. Well, almost all new. There is one player who ended up with the team to start his career, but did not get drafted by them.

This Broncos team was reasonably young, but also had some players who were coming to an end to their career. The Broncos needed to find replacements.

In this 2008 re-draft, they do. There was one rule: I cannot keep any players who were drafted by the team. It’s like if the team started fresh.

Without further ado, check out my 2008 Broncos re-draft. Enjoy!
