Btw, the dire situation I eluded to is about what this team is doing. Elway, is in this place where it seems the Broncos are chasing their own tail. I think we are all thinking they are going to be drafting yet another first round QB this year. Let me say I think the QB class this year sucks. Yes, sucks. I don't any of them are all of that. Rosen is probably the best of all of them, but his passion for the game is questionable.
Baker Mayfield, everyone is going to make the Russell Wilson comparison. Well, a few things. One, Wilson ran basically a 4.4 in the 40. Now, for a QB that should not mean much. However, running speed for SHORT QBs is actually essential. Reported that Mayfield runs a 4.8. Wilson had some of the best agility numbers ever at the combine. Plus, he broke all sorts of passing records in the Big Ten at WISCONSIN. A school that is NOT known for passing, in a conference that actually plays defense. Unlike the Big XII. Can you name the last Big XII QB that made a great career in the NFL?
Sam Darnold.....not impressed with him at all. Seems to have a great PR machine behind him. He basically blows.
What does all of that mean? It means the Broncos need to put together an OL. That is probably harder than finding a franchise QB. I do believe that a solid OL makes average QBs good and good QBs great. However, I fear this team will draft one of those QBs and the line won't be addressed.
Rinse and repeat I fear.
