Cutting Wilson would also be an embarrassment to Elway and others in the organization.

Why have they had no high picks, exactly? Paton has done fine as a draft talent evaluator, but his trades and FA have been awful. I can see him staying on as a powerless figurehead that answers to Payton, but if that changes the way we deal with Wilson then he needs to go.
Also, Elway is not with the Broncos anymore.
