1. Drafted Lynch. Nuff said on that one.
2. Took what was a good move at the time in turning a 7th round pick into a pretty good backup QB in Semen... but then farted that away when he started depending on him as a weekly starter. And when that ended up not being good enough, he threw the baby out with the bathwater and traded the best QB to play for him post-Manning, when that guy was a very valuable backup QB with lots of starting experience
3. When he decided THAT backup QB wasn't good enough he paid out the ass for another team's backup QB-- Case Keenum. Boy, the huddles never looked so good!
4. Let's go back to Lynch. In doing so, he put too much faith in that loser such that he stood pat in the following years of QBs. For what reason? I don't really know. He never gave that guy a chance to start a game, so I don't know why he couldn't see it coming much earlier. If he actually knew shit about QBs, he would have been more aggressive in drafting other guys in 2017 and 2018. But hey... Swag Kelly in the 7th round!
5. To further elaborate on #4, when he needs to draft, he trades/signs a veteran. When he needs to let things simmer, he aggressively cycles in and out of QBs worse than the noman's land years of the Cleveland Browns. And when opportunities to take ACTUALLY good QBs come his way, he all of a sudden turns into a cheapass, almost like he thinks he's smarter than everybody else. And yet he'll spend $18 million per year on Case ****ing Keenum.
6. Oh, by the way... in 2017 given the choices of Semen, Lynch, Swag, and Kyle Sloter, he let Sloter walk, who has since become the primary backup in Minnesota. Swag is a 3rd stringer for the Lions, Semen is... don't know where he is, and LYNCH IS OUT OF THE LEAGUE. He let the wrong guy walk and the two guys who were his "future" ended up being worse than that guy.
I can go on, dude. There's more to elaborate on. I haven't even gotten to Flacco and Lock yet. I haven't covered Assweiler yet.
John Elway doesn't know ****ing QBs at all. He's not just 0-1 in drafting franchise guys. He hasn't made one good goddamn decision when it comes to scouting QBs in his ENTIRE STINT as Mayor McCheese of Denver. No, Manning doesn't count--- ****ing Herm could have said that would be a good idea to pursue him.

Fast forward to this past off season - Elway should have traded a #2 for Rosen instead of wasting it on Lockweiler.
