The Broncos have denied LBs coach Richard Smith permission to interview for the Raiders' defensive coordinator vacancy.
The Broncos won't be letting Dennis Allen pillage his former staff. Smith was a candidate to replace Allen as Broncos defensive coordinator before Jack Del Rio was hired. ESPN.com reports ex-Chargers DC Greg Manusky and 49ers DBs coach Ed Donatell are potential candidates to run Allen's defense in Oakland.
