Broncos news megathread

Discussion: All things Broncos.

“Why would teams covet Josh Allen in the top-10 when only a handful of teams liked Patrick Mahomes as a first rounder last year?”

I’ve asked that to 10-15 people this week. Not one has given me a good answer.

Mahomes was better as a prospect in almost every way.

I thought of that too, but I don't know.

If Denver did that they might decide to stick with Lynch and Kelly as developmental QB's and draft OL at #5. I really don't want to pass on one of these young QB's this year, Smith would win too many games to get a crack at one next year.

Knowmo hyped up Brock, Paxton, Kelly and Semen. He doesn’t like Mahomes bc of the team he plays for.

He’d be spamming us with endless tweets about Mahomes being great if he was a Bronco.

We all know this.

I didn't like Mahomes long before KC drafted him.

Well yeah. But that's because you're a braindead moron when it comes to logical football takes. Everyone with half a brain or more would. It's just too bad that even half a brain is a disqualifier for you.

People like Josh Allen bc he fits the most basic traits on the outside of what a traditional QB looks like. Tall, good build, strong arm, pro style experience.

After that it’s all downhill. This was the same shit people thought about Paxton Lynch.

GMs all saw Mahomes play this year and now want a similar version.

Sorry, there ain't any.

Yep. And before there was the info that the Last Place Denver Broncos were interested in Baker Mayfield, (Total smoke screen IMO) he hyped Josh Allen as the best QB in the draft because there were tweets that Elway liked what he saw in him...

So his opinion is worthless now? He’s officially an idiot?

What does that say about the guy that drafted Lynch (and Brock)?

Elway gambled on a QB at the end of the first round. It's not like he traded away the future to get him. It was either trade a first for Bradford, give Brock $18M per year, sign Kaepernick, or draft Lynch.

Elway made a reasonable decision at the time, and had Dak not gotten in trouble before the draft he might've been a Bronco, as there were multiple reports that the Broncos really liked him.

There might not be a similar version, but there is a better version.

• Allen: “He has the best traits of the three—size, athletics, arm strength. He’s just raw. Picture a better version of Patrick Mahomes.”

Dude....that article was BEFORE the college football season where Allen did jackshit.

And here's a quote from the same article.

3. It’s also not surprising to see that Paxton Lynch is starting to make leaps playing for new/old Broncos offensive coordinator Mike McCoy. What McCoy is best at is adapting his scheme for the quarterback he has, and that’s why the talented Lynch has been a threat to unseat Trevor Siemian from the jump.

Which is probably why Denver is all in on Cousins. They’ve ****ed around with 3 drafted QB’s. I seriously doubt they want to try again unless they have to.
