Von Miller News

Charles Woodson goes back home and honestly, I'm glad. He would not have been much of an upgrade over the young guns and Peyton Manning will get to make him regret his decision twice this year.

The Denver Broncos have strict media regulations when it comes to photography of their practice sessions, especially in regard to formations and player personnel.

Von Miller has played only two seasons for the Broncos, but he already has carved out a tidy slice of the team's record book.

The Denver Broncos are currently in organized team activities, and there are a few interesting storylines as the Broncos prepare to enter the 2013 season.

About the only time the Broncos defense played as if it didn't belong on the same field as the opposing defense last season was Week 5 at New England.

That includes Rahim Moore , the safety whose big blunder led to Denver's heart-wrenching loss in the playoffs four months ago.

Broncos defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio's group only gave up 289 points during the 2012 regular season.

Whew! I've been around MHR and SB Nation since 2007ish and this was the worst outage I've ever seen.

Denver Broncos vice president of football operations John Elway said last season's 13 wins were good but not enough.

Not to pick on former NFL wide receiver, Jimmy Smith, but it seems like being a wide receiver induces mass stupidity in recent weeks.

A speed rusher, Smith led the nation in sacks last year. He played for Western Kentucky, but the national champs discovered he's not small-school strudel.

The team had more than 30 players at their Dove Valley facility for practices, from drafted and undrafted rookies to a handful of players trying out for the team.

Hybrid rush ends, increasingly blurred lines between 4-3 and 3-4 alignments and a new brand of ball-hawking safety will be the trends that dominate defensive football in the 2013 NFL season.

Despite appearances, in particular that of Alex Gibbs, the Broncos aren't returning full time to the zone-blocking, one-cut running scheme of their glory years.

Day 2 of Broncos rookie minicamp has wrapped up at Dove Valley. Players are getting more into the swing of things as they get used to practice at the pro level.

Then first-round draft pick Sylvester Williams became No. 92. Nothing says fresh start like the first day of rookie minicamp.

The 49ers' rookies arrived Thursday in advance of their three-day minicamp and the most intriguing of the arrivals wasn't one of their 11 draft picks.
