If I recall, Clinton Portis was drafted in the 2nd round, after William Green and T.J. Duckett were selected in the 1st round. A 2nd round pick isn't exactly waiting until the 2nd day of the draft and calling UDFAs. Also, it would appear that it was a 2nd round pick well spent and not the "downfall" of the Denver system. It is more a product of finding the right player for the system.
