On the OL, I think what we have as of today is much better than what Minnesota trotted out there last year. Even more if we were to draft a guy like Nelson. But the receiver spot is where everyone wants to focus on. So, I ask...how many good seasons did Diggs and Thielen have BEFORE Keenum was the QB? I mean, if they are the reason he was so good, why did they wait until 2017? Why didn't they make Bradford or Bridgewater look better in the years before?
Basically, Keenum is coming from a "stacked" team with a good defense, mediocre OL and good receivers...to an "un-stacked" team with a good defense, passable OL and good receivers.
So help me out here. What is it that made Minnesota so much more "stacked" last year than Denver is this year? Despite having the exact same strength of schedule and similar strengths and weaknesses. Was it maybe...just maybe...improved QB play?
