Denver is in a really great place. They either get a franchise QB, or have the chance to draft the best RB to come out since Adrian Peterson.

Barkley’s gonna be a Brown at 4.

You guys are gonna get either Cutler2 or Tebow2 at 5.

He could go 1, 2, 3, or 4. Gettleman has said over and over again that he thinks Eli can still play and Jim Irsay said he wants the Colts to draft a RB.

Al Bundy · 01-27-2018, 09:15 AM

I hope it is all QB's and a running back in the top 5.

RunKC · 01-27-2018, 09:32 AM

I would bet that both the Colts and Browns try to trade down from 3 and 4. If Broncos want a QB they will most likely have to trade up.

RunKC · 01-27-2018, 09:35 AM

Broncos are really going to sign a QB from QB purgatory who has done less than Alex Smith while paying him more than Alex Smith

Who are you wanting to fall? Chubb?

The Browns and Jets have $79M+ worth of cap room. The Vikings and Redskins both have $50M+...

Denver can't/won't compete in an all-out bidding war with those teams.

YA LIKE THAT!

Quesadilla Joe · 01-27-2018, 09:49 AM

The Cardinals will have a little more cap space than Denver will with Palmer's contract going away. They have said that they're going to be active in the veteran QB market.

Tombstone RJ · 01-27-2018, 10:08 AM

I don't think the Broncos will get into a bidding war for Cousins. I'm guessing that yes, the Broncos will try to address the QB position before the draft, allowing them to then draft BPA at 5 or trade down. I'm guessing that Barkley will definitely be gone by 5. However, a player like Chubb or Fitzpatrick will probably be there. If the Broncos take either one of these players, that will really help the defense. Rumor has it that the Broncos would not be apposed to drafting Nelson at five too, as that will immediately help the interior offensive line and consequently, the run game.

All of this is predicated on the Broncos taking care of the QB position before the draft. One more thing: the Broncos still have two young QBs on their roster, Lynch and Kelly. Say what you want about Lynch, but he's still a project, and Kelly is a complete unknown at this time. My suspicion is that the Broncos just assume keeping Lynch and Kelly and not spending a high draft pick on a rookie QB, at least, not in the first round.

Denver will sign Cousins, Arizona will trade for Smith. That's my best guess right now.

**The Franchise** · 01-27-2018, 11:18 AM

I’d laugh if the Broncos drafted Mayfield. That QB room would be hilarious. Mayfield and Kelly would spend all day talking about the bitches they ****ed and comparing who is the bigger douche. All while Paxton Lynch stubs his toe on the desk and is out for 6 weeks. Then the camera pans out and you see Siemian peeking into the window with a solitary tear running down his cheek.
