Welcome to the NFL Offseason! For the casual football fan, Broncos season is over with and secondary pursuits are taken up. Here at the Mike High Report, that doesn't exist. Preparations at Dove Valley have already begun with the evaluating of prospects, Free Agents and player conditioning for the 2013 season.

The Broncos scouting department made inquiries and interviewed a small group of players at the Senior Bowl and the East-West Shrine game and we really need to find out more about these guys. Many other players have been Mocked to the Broncos and further investigation is required there as well. The purpose of this is to try and gain insight to what we aren't privy to in the War Room and visualize what the overall plan of attack turns out to be. Where the team is focusing to shore up and make improvements to our beloved team. So in the coming weeks, the following prospects will be dissected and discussed. This list will grow with time and suggestions, but for now the Big Short Board of prospects begins here.

As these are posted, this list will highlight for easy access to each prospect.

Note: The asterisk next to a player's name denotes he is a declaring Junior.
