Took FB Andy Janovich from Nebraska (6th rd). A tough, hard-nosed player who can block & play special teams. An old-school throwback player.

Sean Callahan @Sean_CallahanAs a fullback, Janovich out-benched 36 of the 45 offensive linemen this year at the NFL Combine. #huskers
Robin Washut @RobinWashutAndy Janovich is the 24th #Huskers player who came to Nebraska as a walk-on to be drafted.

Riley has really stepped up to give these kid's a chance. Great news for Andy!
This is awesome, and a great fit. Keep an eye out on the free agency market for another Gretna player that will likely get picked up before the end of tomorrow - Cole Spurgeon. 2 time DII All American at Colorado School of Mines. Between Andy, Cole and Mick, I'd say the Dragons have produced some impressive talent over the last few years.
Remember the game comeback game against Wisconsin? Believe it was Todd Blackledge who commented that Jano was "a rancher or a cowboy." Kind of fitting that he goes to the Broncos.
Blo had this kid for 3 years and barely saw the field let alone the ball. Riley has him for one year and the kid is f'ing drafted!
That should show beyond a shadow of a doubt the job this staff is doing seeing talent and utilizing it. Can't wait for fall!

24th or 34th?
Surprising amount of love Jano on sports talk in Denver. On my way into work, they convinced me he's not only going to make the roster but he is also going to be a key contributor and not just on special teams.
With a huge question mark at QB and an amazing D, I would assume they will want to run and run a lot. So that probably helps Jano out. Nice fit for him.
