Yep...now they are on the Sanchez PR hype train. Without drafting Lynch, and not signing Kap...things would be pretty bleak.
Landing Lynch has over-shadowed the reality that Sanchez is the starter for 2016. Hope is important to sell tickets...
I'd imagine, after the draft dust settles, fans are going to come to terms with the situation Elway's ego has put them in...
The future of Denver is, now, squarely on the shoulders of Lynch being able to quickly acclimate to a pro-style offense. If he is slow in his development...it could be a 3-4 year mistake.
Osweiler bailing out...really screwed Elway. He had been grooming him for this exact scenario/Manning's retirement... got caught with his drawers down...
