I think he still has like $35 million in his contract?
Who’s going to eat that?
Not sure if it’s $35 million, somebody can give the correct amount, but it’s substantial

Money doesn't matter. Not so long ago, one of our former QBs was sold off for a pick just so the contract would get eaten my another team

Drew/Pickett
Drew/Strong
Drew/Corral
Drew/Howell

I’m with you there. We’ve got choices and all of those guy are at best two-year projects

I have faith that Pickett could learn on the job. Not excel. Learn. The others...not so much

I too, see it that way. He’s driven, plays with passion and he’s a go-getter. You can’t coach that into anyone

We prob don't, I don't think Pickett makes it past Detroit. Houston is also interested in trading 3 and the jets are interested in trading 4 we could get there but then your talking about taking a guy like Corral, Howell or Willis. I think Pickett Could have moderate success starting from day 1. Corral as well if he gets a bit bigger. The rest of this class needs some time and development. I'm fine with taking a Qb rd 1, however that shakes out. If We don't it better be a god dammed tackle or pass rusher though.

As for cousins, f him still. Dude has plenty of talent around him constantly and sucks with it. He is the king of garbage time stats. He isn't the young hot shot that got the WFT to the playoff, he is a egotistical avg joe blow with a shitty contract and bloated ego not commensurate with the type of QB he currently is. His glory days are gone.

No F cousins, if we take a 2nd rd. kid that's fine, we better go edge or OT at 9 then. No part of cousins belongs in Denver.

I align my opinion with the experts. No quarterback will be picked in the top ten this year. My homerism wants Pickett, but just like we need a quarterback we also need an inside linebacker and an OT

While no QB belongs in the top 10...and that is the general consensus. Somebody will likely take one. And it won't necessarily be the wrong move. Position breeds desperation.

Of course. There’s always the possibility of a bracket buster, so to speak. It’s tough to predict what we would do. Paton may go 2.0 this season by bringing in a veteran quarterback this time a bona-fide proven starter; no competition, and by doing so, he may decide to address the inside linebacker issue, that just as the quarterback position it’s been the Achilles heel of our defense. As I have mentioned before, this draft class is loaded with defensive blue chippers, in fact, the middle linebacker the experts are projecting the Broncos to select at #9 is from the college football national champions Georgia Bulldogs Nakobe Dean

And he's not even the best LB. Love me some Dean. Reminds me of Al Wilson. The Ute will be a better pro in my opinion though

So Broncos take on your scrubs ****** up contract and the Vikings give the Broncos a 2nd round pick for their efforts?

That’s the first thing you’ve ever said about Cousins that makes any sense whatsoever.

Kyler Murray’s QBR must be bad.

Unreal.

At #9 he is. The guys to be picked before him are the cream of the crop in this year’s NFL draft

At this point I just want Strafen to be happy. No cousins!
