    Chubb was the right pick.

    The only 2 QBs I wanted were gone by our pick. Allen would have been nauseating and I'm not a huge Rosen guy. Not against him, just didn't like him over the other 2. We lucked into Chubb and I have zero regret about him. That said, Nelson still woulda been sweet to see on this team.

    The second part of your pick is probably one of the worst things I've ever read. Judging rookie QB's is absurd. The irony that you point to how great an OL can be while ignoring Rosen losing all starters on OL and nine different OL startin combinations, as well as two offensive coordinators in his rookie season is...sad. Any fan of the game can rattle off a glut of great QB's who were awful in their rookie season.

    Your analysis is shoddy, regarding QB's and the value of a guard.

    This thread gets an F-. Any person agreeing with it also gets an F-. Sometimes you guys really let me down.
    I mean, dog posted it, so yeah.

    Honestly, as this thread implies, Nelson would have been a fantastic pick too. The economics of it though make pass rushers a better choice. Once Nelson's rookie deal expires, he'll command tackle money. It's hard to re-sign guys like Nelson because every other team wants to steal him at a traditionally lower-priced position, so boundaries get pushed. Pass rushers though? You know exactly what you're going to pay if the guy is elite, which is Miller/Suh/Mack money.

    Still outrageous, but I'd rather a team spend $1 million per sack than devote $15 million APY on a Guard that no longer gets the same push anymore. Allen Faneca comes to mind.

    Imagine Lindsay running behind a line led by Nelson.

    Imagine having a defensive coordinator not scared to use the double-teams that Von commands to creatively generate pressure from other places, and a head coach that empowers him to do so.

    Those of us who said Nelson would be great have been right. Those who wanted Chubb have also been right about his talent.

    The goal is not to be 2% more right, the goal is to get a Pro-Bowler, even an All-Pro with a top-5 pick and Chubb is on that track. Chubb in a Fangio defense would be... basically spectacular. More spectacular, if you wanna get specific. Denver's still gotta fix the OL though, while they also free Chubb and Von up to do more damage. Last year's draft (and UDFA class) looks to be a productive one. Now Elway just has to do that again, with the big uglies.

    Which means he'll probably go cornerback in the first.

    Seriously dude? You high fived your own post? That is just so sad. Like a boy who has a birthday party and nobody came, and he's sitting there singing "happy birthday to me!" and blowing his little paper horn alone.

    Usually I'm a year ahead of the curve here and by the time everyone else catches up I can't even celebrate being right. The logic displayed, and I'm being kind to call it logic, was so pathetic and so shitty I was going to take a massive shit on it. The fact that a Broncos fan would write off QB's as rookies while loving John Elway also shows some combination of absurdity, lack of historical knowledge, or just lack of decent thinking.

    I simply gave the response that was warranted. The fact that it led me to just putting another person on ignore is a bonus.

    You need to humble yourself and acknowledge the beauty of the self-high five.

    High fixing yourself is lame.

    Old men who aren't innovative and have no style hate the self-hi-five.

    The next coaching hire should bother old people, or old mentality people, who want to draft guards and just want to run the diggity damn ball all the time.

    Denver has lost its nuts and dangle. Time to get them back. **** the Cowards! We march forward!
