Tank '19 then, 'Jake Fromm State Farm!' I think he'll come out early.
Everything else is really just a Band-Aid. Might as well go through the pain with plan.

He’s a sophomore - not eligible until 2020Quote:

Ah, I see it now. If we’re tanking all the way through next year though, Tua is the guy I wantQuote:

I'd be thrilled with Tagovaiola too; but I am a Dawgs fan and give preference to Fromm. The Dawgs will want him to come out anyways in 2020 because Justin Fields will not wait any longer behind him. So, tanking '19 too makes sense as part of the rebuild, but somehow I think 5-years from now we will still be talking about how Elway messed up.Quote:

Look at Sam Darnold. He has shown glimpses, but already people in NYJ land are saying hes too soft and is more like Mark Sanchez II.
I wish i had some kind of voice in Dove valley. The real shit job by Elway was drafting osweiler over Wilson and Cousins.
Maybe we can pull a Seattle and rebuild a chunk of the roster and still compete next year.
To JS' point, I get frustrated with JFE because he's a QB, he should know what one is.
He wasn't the GM when Cousins was drafted and Wilson wasn't third round so every team passed on for first two rounds.Quote:
