The NFL Draft and Beyond: Bradlee Van Pelt thought he’d be drafted on the first day, which shouldn’t surprise anyone. BVP oozed confidence after his tie at Colorado State University and was convinced the NFL was ready for his unconventional style of playing quarterback. He waited all the way until the 7th round and the Denver Broncos took him with their second pick in that round. His NFL experience is filled with some wild stories, mostly because Bradlee wanted to do things Bradlee’s way. He soon realized NFL coaches didn’t care for his tactics.

After the NFL, Bradlee dabbled a bit overseas in both football and another passion: wine. He also met a girl and after a few years, had his second true girlfriend and eventually wife. He also got his MBA, has become a father of five and is starting to reconnect with Colorado State, it’s football team and people from his past.
