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.

So let’s hold the armchair GM accountable for liking the guy, but not the real GM for trading up and drafting him.

Allen will be a giant bust. Not accurate enough.

Is this a joke?

Hey now, he just didn't have anybody to throw to. Nevermind the fact that he doesn't even play in a power 5 conference.

Look at the guys who’ve had similar statistics to Allen in college

Not a good group

If Elway is smart he’ll take Mayfield if he’s there

Denver is so lucky that they get to coach Mayfield AND Allen at the Senior Bowl.

The Senior Bowl North team, coached by the Broncos, will include Baker Mayfield, Josh Allen and Luke Falk.https://t.co/ogWVq69Qb2

Knowmo, Denver should just take Alex. He'll protect the ball and keep you in games.

Instead of losing games 13-34, you can lose 17-20.

Browns should draft Josh Allen No. 1, says one NFL exec, and Mel Kiper Jr. agrees

Spoiler!

The Browns should draft Wyoming quarterback No. 1 overall, a high-level NFL personnel executive told cleveland.com, and ESPN's Mel Kiper Jr. feels the same, according to his first mock draft released on Thursday.

The NFL exec, who told cleveland.com at the Senior Bowl in January of 2016 that the Browns would be set for the next 15 years if they drafted Carson Wentz, said "Allen is the best and it's not even close.''

He ranks him ahead of USC's Sam Darnold, whom most experts believe the Browns will draft at No. 1; and UCLA's Josh Rosen, whom many have the Giants taking at No. 2.

"I believe (John) Dorsey will block out the noise and take the best guy (in Allen),'' said the exec. "And the Browns will be good very soon.''

He also said "the best comp for Allen (6-5, 233) is Big Ben (Roethlisberger) when he came out of college.''

He added that he never saw Darnold "as a No. 1.''

Kiper surprised a lot of folks by going with Allen to the Browns at No. 1 overall in his Mock 1.0 on Thursday -- and fellow ESPN expert Todd McShay didn't fight him on it.

"When you look at who finished the strongest of the top three quarterbacks, he did,'' said Kiper. "You can say, 'Well, he had the shoulder injury.' He did. But he came back from the shoulder against Central Michigan and he lit it up. Made NFL throws, showed tremendous competitiveness. Remember, beginning of the year, they were missing key starters at running back, wide receiver, tight end and center. That's why he had some struggles against Iowa starting out the season.''

Worst case scenario for Allen is Cleveland drafting him and making him start immediately.

That should solidify his being a star then. Because we’ve seen how your pimping of Brocklisburger, and Lynch, and Semen, and Brockisburger again have gone!!
