Thread: Peter King says Denver picks a QB in first 2 rounds

Last time he said this, he was right. We picked Tebow.

"... I think Denver picks a quarterback in the first two rounds ... I think New England's a candidate for the fifth straight draft to take a corner in the top two rounds ... The hip rehab of New England cornerback Ras-I Dowling is going very well. He'll be ready for most if not all of his offseason work ... The Jets would think seriously of Trent Richardson at 16."

I was be surprised if it was someone in the first 2 rounds but not after.

not going to happen

Seems like he is trying to make an obvious choice just like last time.

Last time we had just traded Cutler so to say we would grab a QB in first 2 rounds was kinda an easy pick to make.

This time most people believe Tebow is a bad QB, so again safe pick to make.

I will personally be very pissed if we do. I believe we have plenty of other needs and would rather give a former first round pick a full offseason as the starter to see if he can develop into the guy before throwing that pick away and grabbing his replacement.

a 2nd round pick is to early on a QB IMO.

Tebow needs to fail first in order to justify such a high pick that can be used on a inside LB or a CB.

i'm sure the Broncos FO can find a QB with a "skill set" in the 5th and 6th round. Right??

Mychal Kendricks please!!!

Denver has many, many needs and QB is one of them.......

As ive been sayin all along, DEN is going to be very active in FA, and they will be active in the draft as well.
Dont be suprised if DEN uses 2013 draft picks as ammo and moves back into the bottom of the 2nd round to grab Brock Osweiller.
Just watch, Osweiller will be a bronco.

I can't say QB is a need till after this yr..Yes its a need bc Denver needs a backup. If Tebow is bad this yr then Denver has to find a QB.

Did he really manage to make a football prediction in between his lengthy Starbucks coffee diatribes?

l don't know how bad a QB has to play before you think it's a need but it's undenyable that Denver needs a starter. That may change but you don't draft a backup when you have a backup starting.......

how do you give up on a kid when everyone knew he was 3yrs away from being a starter? If orton didn't blow and could win games Tebow wouldn't have been thrown into the starting lineup. Not his fault he got pushed to be a starter after about a yr & a half..Does Denver want to go down as another team who gave up on a Qb to soon?...Imagine if the Bucs didn't give up on Young. Give the kid a full yr of offseason and as a starter before we make judgement. How would Rogers & McNair be judged if they had to start right away? The jury is still out on Tebow. He had some nice moments and some bad moments (typical of a young qb who still is learning & wasn't in an nfl system in college) He helped get a team to the playoffs & got a playoff win. Why start fresh with a rookie? Build defense and if Tebow plays well you have a bright future...If not, you draft a qb next yr and you will still have that defense.

Nobody said he was 3 years away from being a starter, where'd you get that? He was a 3rd round prospect for a team like NE who could afford the luxury, he was a 5th round prospect for teams like Denver who could not afford the luxury. Starter expectations were few and far between.

And, besides, ya know where most QB's who are 3 years away from being a starter spend most of their time? On the bench. So if you're saying he shoudn't be starting l agree.

The rest of your post is just fan excuse making.......

HE is/was a project QB. The difference is that he actually can WIN while he is learning the ropes. The way the tailored the offense did allow him to be successful so I give credit to that as well, but TEBOW also had a lot to do with that (see the Jets game and that lovely playoff game vs the Steelers).

The year after Farve "retired" the pack who where just a couple of plays from the SB. Had a 6-10 season under Rodgers. Tebow would not survive that type of season in Denver. He is not given the same slack more polished QB's get. But that IMO is offset by the amount of exposure he get's.

Where was Tebow a 3rd round prediction? Everywhere I saw was 5-7. Everywhere said 3 years. ******* McDouchebag friggen sped it up by picking him in the first. Doesn't change what he can honestly do with the talent he has. Unfortunately Denver didn't have the choice to let him be a 3 year project.

Thanks McDouchenozzle.
