To sign Von, Broncos will have some cap-maneuvering to do (Jeff Legwold, ESPN.com)
The Broncos have now signed five of their eight picks, including safety Justin Simmons (third-round pick) and running back Devontae Booker (fourth-round pick) on Friday, but beyond their first-year class they remain largely in a holding pattern on contracts until they can, or can't, hammer out a deal for linebacker Von Miller.

*If you have unusually athletic 3-technique ends like Derek Wolfe and Malik Jackson, you can use them as 5-techniques, because they have the speed to be threats from the outside and can create mismatches in one-on-one situations against opposing tackles. (If Adam Gotsis develops as hoped, he could be next in line to be used like this.) *
