My Take
Simon Fletcher's résumé quietly impresses me. A Bay City, Texas kid who went from local high school to the Houston Cougars and then a second-round pick by the Denver Broncos in 1985 was no fluke. As a linebacker through the Broncos' tough late-'80s and early-'90s era, his job was never about glory but about disrupting offenses week after week. I have a soft spot for defensive workhorses whose value never fully shows up in highlight reels. Fletcher feels like one of those durable, dependable defenders who anchored a unit, and that kind of consistency earns my lasting respect.
