Saturdays were the most difficult days to punch the clock for new Broncos running back Ronnie Hillman. To see all of the school colors, the hats, sweat shirts — and Hillman didn’t have the ball.

2012 Denver Broncos Draft: Fan Reaction | Yahoo! Sports
The Denver Broncos came into the 2012 NFL Draft with some clear needs. Many fans (including myself) wanted improvement on the interior defensive line, depth in the secondary and the offensive line, and an additional running back.
Broncos Agree to Terms With 13 UDFAs | MaxDenver.com
Arizona State wide receiver Gerell Robinson headlines the list, reuniting with former Sun Devils teammates Brock Osweiler and Omar Bolden.
Round 4, No. 108: Philip Blake, C/G, Baylor | MaxDenver.com
A native of Toronto, Blake was eligible for the Canadian Football League draft — and as a starting offensive lineman at a school in a BCS conference, would have almost certainly had a guaranteed job for a decade, given the CFL’s rules limiting “import†players whose nationality is not Canadian.
Round 4, No. 101: Omar Bolden, CB/KR, Arizona State | MaxDenver.com
In the last three seasons, Bolden missed one year (2011) entirely and most of another (2009) because of problems with it. A sprained MCL torpedoed his sophomore season three years ago; a torn ACL during last spring’s practice brought his college career to a premature end.
Meeting the Media | MaxDenver.com
Denver’s draft picks were happy to pose for pictures as they toured team headquarters and met the media in person for the first time as Broncos.
Round 6, No. 188: Danny Trevathan, LB, Kentucky | MaxDenver.com
Every so often, you find interesting glimpses into a player’s personality from their media guide biography. That is the case with linebacker Danny Trevathan, the Broncos’ sixth-round pick at the No. 188 overall selection.
Round 5, No. 137: Malik Jackson, DE, Tennessee | MaxDenver.com
Wolfe is a pass-rushing three-technique defensive tackle who has the flexibility to swing outside and handle five-technique work. Jackson is a little more of an all-around defensive end — although he did have 7.5 sacks the last two years playing from the inside — and projects as a Broncos defensive end, but has the ability and size (285 pounds) to move inside and play the three-technique in a pinch.
Gut Reaction: Broncos draft Omar Bolden at #101 | IAOFM
The Broncos continued to draft to their board at positions of need (if you believe the Big Dipper, John Fox). The latest is Omar Bolden, cornerback, from Arizona State.
Gut Reaction: Broncos draft Philip Blake at #108 | IAOFM
The Broncos’ pick at #108, Center Philip Blake of Baylor, tells us more about what the Broncos think about J.D. Walton than it does about what they think of Philip Blake. Walton has been slow to develop, and despite the Broncos’ stellar running game last year, most Broncos fans recognize it had more to do with the unpredictability of the zone-read option than it did with Walton moving mountains up front.
Gut Reaction: Broncos draft Malik Jackson at #137 | IAOFM
With pick #137, the Broncos drafted an undersized, but athletic and versatile DT/DE tweener in Malik Jackson from Tennessee.
Gut Reaction: Broncos draft Danny Trevathan at #188 | IAOFM
