Daniel Auelua knows he has to make the most of this fall camp, since it will in all likelihood be his last.
The senior defensive tackle at Boise State joined the team last spring from Mesa (Ariz.) Community College and played in all 13 games, making nine tackles while knocking down a pair of passes. He is currently listed as junior David Moa’s backup on the initial depth chart.
After the Broncos relied on its starters heavily last fall, a player like Auelua (6-foot-1, 298 pounds) will be important to getting the defense to operate as well as the staff hopes.
