Too bad that they didn't earn their way to that Superfarce. It's sickening how the league fixed things for Manning to go out on top. They tried first just getting him there. The result was they 30-8 embarrassment that exposed that the Donks shouldn't be there. So they put the fix in all the way in 2015. Pathetic.

Baker Mayfield has plenty of praise for the Broncos ... he says “working with the Broncos was the best part about (the Senior Bowl).” Listen to Mayfield now on @OrangeBlue760 at https://t.co/RjKltzTdsz!

.@baker_mayfield6 on @OrangeBlue760 “the #Broncos are very close to being at this game right now. All they need is one game changer, somebody to lead those guys and give them that spark, and I think I could be that guy for any team. Going to Denver would be an ideal spot for me.”

Bonus being weed is legal in Denver and he has clearly smoked a shit ton.

I think Baker Mayfield would be a perfect fit in Denver, because he seems like a douchebag.

Man I hope they draft that clown.

IF Jacksonville is smart, they'll dump Bortles. That team could be literally one player away from the Super Bowl. The last Place Denver Broncos might be a 7 -8 win team with him. I think he knows that.

The Vikings would also be a great spot for him to land. See above reasoning.

My personal feelings are this:

I don't want Denver to sign Cousins. They're legitimate division contenders with him this year. Good defense and Cousins would make they're offense much better. They're less talented than us, but Cousins does bolster that offense to at least a respectable level. Their defense won't be as good, but their offense will be better.

My hope is they draft a young quarterback. Elway has already busted on 2 high draft picks at the qb position. I believe that's one of the two main reason he's reportedly pressing so hard for Cousins. Of course their quarterback they draft could be good, but with Elway's record it's likely to be a bust.

The last time Elway drafted in the top 5 he picked a future first ballot HOF'er soooo

You mean top 2.

And he wasn't a quarterback.

And Von wouldn't have been there at 5.

No. Elway gets absolutely no credit for drafting Von Miller, just like Pioli gets absolutely no credit for drafting Eric Berry. Those were common sense moves that anyone who's not a complete regard would make.

Not really.

Kyle Orton and Tim Tebow were his QB's. Denver also had a gaping hole at DT and many people thought they should draft Nick Fairley and Marcell Dareus (I was a Dareus fan). Also, Von Miller was thought to be a bad fit for John Fox's 4-3 defense and some people considered him a "workout warrior".

Teams like Tennessee, Jax, and Minnesota passed on Tyron Smith, JJ Watt, Robert Quinn, Mike Pouncey, and Ryan Kerrigan to draft Locker, Gabbert, and Ponder. If Elway was as bad as you guys thought, he could've easily done that.
