Thread: Washington/Arizona in Talks with Denver Right Now

Now I know Shawn Zobel isnt a well known guy...but he is twitting that the Broncos are indeed in discussions with Arizona and Washinton for them to trade up in order to take Gabbert, thinking Carolina will take Newton.


Whos his source? Dont know. But I do know Scheffter follows him.

Is it possible that Schefter has thrown the man a bone in order to kick it up a notch? Its not unheard of for media biggies to help an upandcomer.

He has a website called Draft Headquarters.

Some twits from him as of 15 hours ago....its 9:41 EST at this post.

I'm not reporting on speculation. I'm reporting on things that are currently going on as we speak. I don't beat around the bush

Washington is targeting GABBERT and LOCKER. Washington may trade up because they believe both GABBERT and LOCKER may not last to No. 10

Washington is the darkhorse to trade up as well. They WANT and NEED a QB. They are COMMITTED to taking a QB in Round One

The two will likely barter with Denver. Higher package gets No. 2 overall to select Gabbert.

Blaine Gabbert is NO. 1 OVR player on CINCINNATI and ARIZONA's Board. They both know this, which is why trade talks are ensuing

80-85% RIGHT NOW that Denver trades out of No. 2 overall.

What the heck are you doing awake at this hour?

why would AZ be looking for a qb? dont they have a solid enough one? I forget his name.

I say we trade down if the opportunity is there.

They have Skelton, but hes far from anything useful right now.

They have Derek Anderson and John Skelton. Skelton was the rookie quarterback that beat us last season in Arizona. I don't think their quarterback situation is all that stable.

Skelton, that's who I was thinking of. what happened to Matt Leinhart? isn't he still with the organization?

They benched Anderson for Skelton...........that should tell us something.

Last year Anderson was pitching a hissy.

I dont believe Wizenhoot likes him.

And for the record......Skelton didnt beat us. WE beat us.

Skelton was like 15 of 37, 146 yards. We on the other hand, turned the ball over 6 times, including 3 INTs by Cryle Ortoon.

Matt is a Texan. I thought AZ had a Max...... also as QB. Didn't Max.... start to open last season?

Max Kellerman. Average.

man, I guess I just do not follow that closely. I should. I do remember Skelton starting for AZ, not sure what his first name was.

I remember that name too. Not associated with the NFL though.

That's it. I assumed he wasn't great since he lasted only a couple games and his name escaped me. Thanks
