Bronco Mendenhall Quotes on Spring (3 Quotes)

He had a better winter workout than his spring. He'll have to earn that spot right up to the first game and then on to the second and third and so on.

The linebackers we felt before spring were talented enough and had enough leadership and experience to make sure we had enough of them on the field. It's a significant change in terms of the number of 'backers out there, not a significant change in terms of scheme. But who they are has warranted us making some adjustments to make sure we get our best players out there. There's tremendous competition, depth and talent at that position. That's why we're featuring those players in our defense this year.

The only frustration I've had this spring is the volume of plays. We've addressed the areas of concern in an effective manner, and we've identified the strengths and weaknesses of the team and of existing personnel. The lack of depth controlled the amount of work the 'ones' got. We simply couldn't address the volume of plays we would have liked.
