I do not love willis. I think Paton will take Willis.


If I had to take a QB I would take Pickett. i do not want to move up for any QB in this draft. I dont. I want Russ, Rodgers or Watson. I would go hard after Wilson. If not, I will pull the trigger for watson. I want nothing to do with the QBs in the first round of this draft. I would draft Ridder or Strong with one of my 2nd rd picks though.


QB room of:

Wilson/Watson
Ridder/Strong/
Lock

thats the way I would build this roster

JoJo Doman

Tell me about him Husker fans. Is it true he is a MLB who played a bunch at corner? Could he be a coverage ILB for us?

You don't ever bring in a retread and start him for a below avg season in hopes of saving your job because it literally works .01 % of the time. Fangio just learned this and I'm sure Paton just saw it as well. Draft a QB every damn draft in rd 1 until you find the guy period. Its great to have next von miller but it does nothing when you trot out a Teddy B, Keenum, Flacco etc at Qb.

What the hell the entire second half of this post is arguing some shit I never said. Wake me up when I ever say bring in a retread……

Let’s say Pickett is the only quarterback with a top 15 grade, the broncos are picking at 9, picket ends up going before the broncos pick. Shall the broncos pass on the elite pass rusher or OT just to reach on a QB whose graded late first or 2nd round pick? Hell no!

And I’m not the one who ever considered Chubb the next von miller, I was josh allen while majority of broncos fans like was Chubb…….

To me the best value in this draft is trading back, unless you like Pickett. If you like Pickett then you probably have to trade up to 4 to ensure you get him. This draft seems pretty deep but not very top heavy. Honestly there is probably 4 or 5 underclassmen that would be picked before any single player in this class if they were able to declare.

There is some good depth though, especially at LB and OL.

Sadly the Lions are coaching at the Senior Bowl, Pickett is going to go to Detroit IMO. They are going to fall in love with that Kid.

If Quinn is the HC, we need to revamp the 3 off ball linebackers. Need speed vs what we have. Plus another DE. i figure Chubb would be the Leo in his 43 under.

I'd prefer we take some combo of Edge/QB @9/40 and take Muma at 60(or wherever that pick ends up)

Browning is pretty good LB or us, then the pick at 9 should be the kid from Utah. Dude has elite ability and leadership/smart’s.

Also strnad is better suited in s 4-3. Nonetheless I don’t think it would be a tough transition. I need to know what the plan is for the offense would be though with a Dan Quinn. I’d imagine he would lean towards a veteran quarterback like Lock in year one for stability as well.

Remember our needs; quarterback and inside linebackers. For some weird reason we’ve been neglecting to address those two positions, and Micah Parsons was thee for us last year. Talking about being clueless!

Talent was never an issue. He was a grade A *******. He's a beast. Hopefully for his sake being rich won't make him more of who he is/was and he grows up.

Our Needs are Still QB, T and edge first before anything else. Then we can talk ILB, S, and C. Just so everyone is tracking we have no RT at the moment as Anderson and Massie are both FA's albeit Anderson is a RFA so maybe he gets brought back but he is a bit player at T not a starter.

Browning and Jonas griffin absolutely look like possible answers inside IMO. Kiser showed out a bit as well. We need a good rookie to bring along sure and Strnad and Wade and Robinson will be brought back to keep developing. AJ might be back as well his injury may have drove his cost down and I would 100% sign him to a 2 year deal if it makes sense. However the HC will probably be a variable there. Maybe the play is Kenny young also. We have failed to address it but its not on the top 3 pecking order at the moment for needs.

For me if we don't go QB you stay at 9 and take a Edge like Ojabo or you Take a T like Cross either at 9 or back a few spots in the 12 range in a trade back. We still would be stupid not to take a QB and make a go of it IMO. However if we like a guy like ridder or strong more for example later from a value standpoint then so be it. Take your edge or T at 9 and then go get your QB.

I still believe entering the draft you should ask if you have the following 4 and if not go get them.

QB- We don't
T- We have 1 and he is at best serviceable
Edge- we have 1 injury prone above avg player
CB- We have a legit number 1

So for me in rd. 1 we need a QB, T, or Edge...I'm tired of passing on QB's and I'm tired of passing on Tackles though
