    Fact.
    The Plan at the moment:

    Draft: Trade a 3rd and 6th this year to a team to move up and get a 2nd next year (this will happen).

    Players I want:
    Jake Ferguson (Jake Butt) or Jelani Woods or Jeremy Ruckert or Cade Otten (owen daniels) at TE- All 4th rd or later.
    Troy Anderson LB 3rd/4th rd (yay Timmy!)
    Neil Farrell, JR DL- run stuffer- bye purcell

    we know it was ellis.

    I don't doubt that it's possible or even likely, I just don't take friends who know friends as a credible source They may in fact be credible, but it's hard for the rest of us to take it as credible.

    Sounds like you are looking for backers in your internal struggle to make Elway a bad guy.

    I'm all in.

    That doesn't mean I feel he should be canned, only that I feel it is stupid to give him a pass, over...and over....and over again.

    I think VJ should be canned but I cannot consider myself a rational human being without first acknowledging that VJ got shafted in every way his first year. So bad that his second year was all about Elway trying to mend what he broke...In a haphazard fashion that was deeply driven by Elway's ego and the idea that he made the Broncos relevant, rather than the fact that he got lucky in signing Manning and most top QBs don't want to work for a stingy *******. Manning regretted working for a stingy *******. But what choice did he have, at the end of his career? Start all over again? Thus, Elway was a stingy ******* to Manning and we stumbled into a SB win. Plus, Wade Phillips. Whom Elway pushed away by by being an arrogant and stingy *******.

    Basically, Elway is an arrogant and stingy *******. He is all that and also did a great job in the 2018 draft. He needs to do as good a job regarding next years draft and coaching situation. He's got it in him. Let's just hope he is an arrogant and stingy ******* that kills next years draft, brings in an offensive innovator AT HC, and understands that he was very much last years headline and that only gets him so much cred today.

    Basically, yes. He should be on notice. I feel he has it in him. He's a big boy in a big boy game. It's all about him realizing that the game is so much bigger than him though, IMO.

    It's a business, Elway. Perform or get left behind.
