Broncos' DE Lang ready for challenge from draft picks

DENVER (AP) - Broncos defensive end Kenard Lang isn't worried about competition from the Broncos' new draft picks.

It's the fact the Denver Broncos selected two defensive linemen from the Florida Gators that has the former Miami Hurricanes' player chafing.

He jokes that it's almost a sin. But he says he'll make an exception for Gators Jarvis Moss and Marcus Thomas.

Lang and Ebenezer Ekuban are penciled in as the starters at defensive end going into the 2007 season. But Moss and second-round draft pick Tim Crowder of Texas will be looking to steal their positions.

Lang says the competition will only make the team better.
