how guys look this time of year.”You really can’t put too much into OTAs,” Miller said Tuesday when asked how much improvement he saw in Denver’s revamped offense. ”Last year, I thought during OTAs we were going to win the Super Bowl.”Asked what it was like playing with a healthier Shane Ray and with rookie https://www.broncosfanstore.com/Chris-Harris-Jr-Jersey Bradley Chubb, the top defender in last month’s draft whose selection sent him into a tizzy , Miller again demurred.”I mean, it’s the same thing that I said about the offense, you really can’t put too much into it,” Miller said. ”You really can’t get too high off a `sack’ in practice out here. I mean, I think that’s a joke.”If you really want to get Miller going, however, bring up his pass rushing summit.Miller is hosting his second annual gathering of the league’s top quarterback tormentors June 27 to June 29 at the Bass Pro Shops’ Big Cedar Lodge in Branson, Missouri.”Some guys said they were coming but I don’t want to say their names yet. You know how it is when you’ve got big-money guys walking around they commit to something two months out,” said Miller, who was all smiles now. ”We should have a good group of young guys. We got a good group of vets and retired guys that are going to come talk about pass rush and come up with ways on how to beat up some quarterbacks.”Miller’s first such summit came about organically last year in California .At the behest of his former position coach Richard Smith, Miller contacted Falcons defensive end Vic Beasley so they could work out together at Stanford University during their summer break between OTAs and training camp.When word got out, ”the media kind of dubbed it the Von Miller Pass Rush Summit,” Miller said. ”I was reading the article and I’m like, I should make this happen. So, I invited all the guys that I knew.”On short notice Shaquil Barrett Color Rush Jersey , he lured Khalil Mack, Olivier Vernon, Malik Jackson, the recently retired DeMarcus Ware, Shane Ray, Cassius Marsh and Cliff Avril, among others.Miller’s inspiration was former teammate Peyton Manning, whose family holds an annual quarterback camp and who used to gather receivers along with brother Eli at Duke University during his playing career.”That definitely was the blueprint,” said Miller, who figured if quarterbacks could gather in the offseason to share trade secrets, why shouldn’t pass rushers?”Whenever you can get guys together who do the same thing that you do to share thoughts, it helps develop you as a pass rusher,” Miller said. ”It helps develop the young guys and it’s better for our sport. It absolutely helps the game of football.”He told The Associated Press at the Super Bowl in Minneapolis that he’d obtained a title sponsor and expected his second annual camp to be even bigger and better than the first. He said he’d invite offensive linemen, too.”It’s a great space where we can go share knowledge,” Miller said. ”It’s the only place where you can do that, it’s the only place where you can get Khalil Mack and Vic Beasley in the same spot – other than the Pro Bowl – and talk about just straight pass rush, what it takes to be a great pass rusher.“It’s great for everybody around.”Miller doesn’t have a head count yet, but he’s not worried about nobody showing up to his party.”I just call the guys around the league. It’s a small fraternity of guys. I know guys on every team,” Miller said. ”So Brian Dawkins Jersey , Justin Houston, I can just call him and tell him to invite Dee Ford and the other guys. Andre Branch with the Miami Dolphins, I can just call him and tell him to invite all the guys. Aric Armstead and Cassius Marsh with the San Francisco 49ers, they were already there last year, so tell them to invite the other guys.”You put the word out and it’s like the `Justice League,’ all the (pass rushers) just come out of nowhere.”— ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) John Elway has changed his mind about adding another quarterback to the Denver Broncos‘ roster.The Broncos signed undrafted free agent Nick Stevens of Colorado State on Thursday, three weeks after Elway said he wouldn’t bring in a fourth passer for offseason workouts.After bypassing QBs in the NFL draft last month, notably Josh Allen and Josh Rosen with the fifth overall pick, Elway said he was satisfied with the group he had.Free agent Case Keenum was declared the starter when he signed with Denver in March and last month Elway said Paxton Lynch and Chad Kelly will compete for the backup role this summer.”We are not going to bring another one in for OTAs,” Elway said on April 28 after wrapping up his 10-member draft class without adding another quarterback.Yet, for the second consecutive year the Broncos have added a local QB.Last year, it was Kyle Sloter of Northern Colorado, who signed with the Minnesota Vikings‘ practice squad after getting cut by Denver. Sloter, who split snaps with Trevor Siemian and Lynch in training camp, later was elevated to the Vikings’ 53-man roster.In four years at Fort Collins, Stevens threw for 8,554 yards with 70 touchdowns and 29 interceptions. He completed 61.9 percent of his passes.The Broncos will enter the third phase of organized team activities next week when the offense lines up against the defense for the first time.—
