The Denver Broncos moved up and got their man.

This is an absolute steal by John Elway and Co.

Ray was cited for possession of marijuana on Monday in Missouri, but wasn’t handcuffed, never taken to jail and released on a signature. He was projected to be a top-10 pick until that slip up made him tumble.

Why did Elway take the chance?

Check out Ray’s insane highlight reel from his time at Mizzou.

Wow!

Ray had an absurd 14.5 sacks last year at Missouri, breaking the school’s single season record.

He’ll line up with Von Miller and DeMarcus Ware as an edge rusher on an absolutely filthy Broncos defensive line.

Can that group get a combined 35 sacks in 2015?

It’s an ambitious, yet realistic goal.
