I've always wondered what would have happened if Pat Bowlen gave Mike 1 more year. Then McDaniels would have destroyed some other franchise.
Or if they had picked Spagnolo or someone else. The record would have been better in 2009 and 2010, so no Von Miller in 2011. They probably would have stuck with Cutler right up till 2012. On the other hand, nobody else would have been as insane with their draft picks like McMoron.
Broncos in the first and second round in 2009 had FIVE total picks, #s 12, 18, 37, 48, 64. Yet they came away with: Knowshon Moreno, Robert Ayers, Alphonso Smith, Darcel McBath and TE Richard Quinn. I don't even know how drafting that bad is possible!
