Broncos news megathread

[ROYC75]

Discussion: All things Broncos.

[RunKC]

Jesus this QB class is god awful. Pickett, Corral and Willis are all undersized small players. Willis might be the best shot and even he is extremely probable.

When Denver misses out on Rodgers their best option might just be Jimmy G, Wentz or staying with Bridgewater another year.

It’s a terrible year to need a QB

But still not as good as KC who is always drafting near last...

They're at the mercy of their sources. Only the Packers are allowed to say anything about Rodgers, and Rodgers isn't saying anything at all. Every other team has to keep their mouth shut because they don't want to get tampering charges.

They might be right, but the Packers have every reason to paint their situation like it's gumdrops and rainbows. Not only because they want Rodgers back, but they also want their fans to know they tried and they want to keep Rodgers' trade value as high as possible.

It's not going to happen. I just don't see this first time HC and young coaching staff really wanting to mortgage their draft future on a near 40 year old QB. No matter how much they like him. But even more importantly... GB is not going to trade him, so its all just noise right now.

Denver will roll into camp with Lock and somebody like Minshew (maybe if they can get him for a cheap pick) and then they can trade back in R1 and take a rookie QB.

That's the path that I see them taking. Depending on how things change, I just don't see a QB at 9, but if they can trade back 6-10 spots and pick up an additional pick, they can take their shot at a QB around pick 20 and have another R2/R3 pick as well.

That’s not even counting Noah Gray who I think will be a solid TE next season.

You guys hit on a C, a G, and an ILB. Humprhey looks like a home run, but there are multiple guys like Bolton and Smith available on day 2 every year. Good job hitting on Smith on day 3, though.

Pat Surtain is a shutdown corner. Stud rushers and QB's come out nearly every year, a guy like Surtain comes around every 5 or 6 years.

Javonte Williams is a monster, and will be a consistent Pro Bowler if he stays healthy.

Meinerz was a solid hit at guard in the third.

Baron Browning was another hit in the third.

Caden Sterns in the 5th is a steal. He's the reason we're going to let Kareem Jackson walk and why we won't even consider drafting Kyle Hamilton at 9.

Jonathon Cooper was a steal in the 7th round.

The Broncos made 2 picks before the Chiefs even made 1.

That's because Let's Reach whiffed on Trent Williams, and then traded a 1 for a mediocre LT who he's going to pay like Trent Williams. (This was after Reach cut a perfectly serviceable LT who still has plenty of tread on his tires)

Yet KC was a half away from three straight SB appearances and your team finished last in the AFCW behind the Chargers and a Raiders team that lost their HC and most dangerous WR mid season. KC hosted its fourth straight AFCCG while Denver is yet again drafting Top 10. But keep putting all your hopes on getting Rodgers, because that’s all you have. #PatonPlan

You talking about Fisher? Dude was horrendous in pass protection this year.

He traded the equivalent of a 2nd round pick for a Pro Bowl LT.

Your “Let’s Reach” joke is pure cringe considering he’s one of the best in the business.

He’s already accomplished more than your GM probably ever will.

He inherited a top 5 QB on a rookie deal. I'd like to think Paton would've been able to win more than one Super Bowl under those circumstances.

[Quesadilla Joe]

I don't think any new GM has ever had it easier than Brett Veach did. He inherited a top 5 HC, a top 5 QB on a rookie deal, a Super Bowl caliber roster the previous GM built for him, and a cakewalk division.

He didn't even have to deal with Manning or Brady (except for 1 year of Brady).

The same mediocre LT that is the 5th best FA available before he gets tagged?

Dumbass.

[staylor26]

KnowMo, you’re going backwards on the 5 stages of grief.

Yesterday you were bargaining, but today you’re clearly angry.

Um...Paton chose and inked Cousins to his deal. Paid him top 5 QB $$$ at the time. Shit like that is why you should adjust your way thinking.
