  • Paige: Which One of Pat Bowlen's Seven Kids Will Take Over Broncos?
    Paige: Which one of Pat Bowlen's seven kids will take over Broncos? By Woody Paige The Denver Post July 27, 2014 When the Broncos open the regular season at home Sunday night, Sept. 7, owner Pat Bowlen, who always wanted to do everything the right way and be No. 1, should be honored appropriately. The circle of roads around the stadium should be renamed "The Pat Bowlen Way," and Broncos jersey No. 1 should be retired. Pat, who for five years has confronted the most difficult struggle of his life, leaves an indelible imprint on the Colorado sports landscape. And he leaves his family — and two of his closest friends — to carry on the Broncos' tradition of success. Joe Ellis and John Elway will administer the business and football operations, as they have for the past three years. Suddenly, though, there is emphasis on which progeny will emerge to serve the Bowlen Family Trust as Pat's successor. His seven children have been thrust into public spotlight and scrutiny. And it's very possible that ultimately all four major professional teams in Denver — the Broncos, the Rockies, the Nuggets and the Avalanche — will be owned and directed by sons and/or daughters. The heirs are apparent. Stan Kroenke still owns the Avs and the Nuggets. But, by NFL rule, he is supposed to divest his financial interest in both teams by the end of this year. However, Stan's son, Josh, is the president of the franchises and ultimately will become the official owner. His sister, Whitney Kroenke Burditt, lives in Los Angeles and has concentrated on being a stage actress, a film producer and a philanthropist.

  • Broncos Need to Draft an Inside Linebacker. a Look at Who They Might Take
    Broncos need to draft an inside linebacker. A look at who they might take. By Eric Edholm Denver Post April 2, 2019 Each week leading up to the 2019 NFL draft, we will be breaking down a position of need for the Denver Broncos along with the top prospects at those positions — their strengths, weaknesses, draft range and how they might fit in with the Broncos. Today we delve into the inside linebackers. The Denver Broncos might have a handful of players who can fit as inside linebackers on their roster right now, but it stands to reason that change is coming. New head coach Vic Fangio has placed a premium on the two interior LB spots in his system at almost every step of his career. In Houston, he had Jamie Sharper in his prime. With the Ravens, Fangio had Ray Lewis and Bart Scott as foundational pieces. As the coordinator with the 49ers, Fangio built his defense around Patrick Willis and NaVorro Bowman, funneling everything their way. And as the architect of the Bears’ defense the past few seasons, Fangio implored Chicago to spend at that position. In 2016, they signed Danny Trevathan and Jerrell Freeman and also used a fourth-rounder on Nick Kwiatkoski. In 2018, they spent the eighth overall pick on LB Roquan Smith. The Bears spent a lot of assets on the position because Fangio valued it, and it helped lead to Chicago having one of the best defenses in the NFL. The Broncos could try to swing a trade for a veteran (bring Trevathan back maybe?), but there’s a great chance that they look to upgrade over the two assumed starters right now, Todd Davis and Josey Jewell.
