It is one factor that needs to be taken account for. As I mentioned already, it takes a few years to really know how a draft panned out. A lot of factors like injuries, QB play,systems etc. Of course Denvers draft from 2020 will look bad on the WR who underperformed. Part of the blame can go on the player, QB play contributed to along with injuries. I bet you wouldn't have to go to far where you guys around here were calling Josh Allen a bust.

My points are: A) it doesn’t take skill to find a solid prospect with the 9th overall pick. It’s a huge failure if you don’t. B) There is absolutely no reason to label him a “top GM” at this point, yet I routinely see Broncos fans doing it (while insulting Veach). C) Veach is vastly more accomplished at this point as a GM. Not even debatable. Paton has a lot to prove. Veach doesn’t. |

Denver played it well getting a QB IMO. I never thought Wilson would have been a legit option. |

Team A - has won the AFCW every year of their tenure, has been to 4 straight AFCCG, been to back to back Super Bowls with one championship. Team B - has finished in last place in their division every year of their tenure, won only one divisional game, and hasn’t beaten team A in 2509 days (and counting). Which GM would you pick?? |

They seem to be forgetting that we have 2 top 10 corners on our team, and they weren’t first round picks. And obviously they would trade every draft Failway and Private Paton have had for our 2017 draft. But as we all know. Dungver doesn’t know anything about drafting quarterbacks.

PFF's take on positional value:
https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-using-p...-the-nfl-draft CB is 10.6x more valuable than a center, according to PFF. CB is 5.5x more valuable than a guard, according to PFF. CB is 2.7x more valuable than a LB, according to PFF. |

Good thing Veach doesn’t need a top 10 pick to find good corners

But again…why are we even talking about Surtain? No GM deserves a lot of credit for landing a decent talent with the 9th pick. |

A lot of people have picked Poe, Fisher, Ty Jackson or Dorsey types up high.
