Or, if we don't draft a first round QB, we then have a team that at best contends for the second WC spot hitting 8-8 and we're stuck out of the reach of a real QB prospect (most likely).

This was a Kubiak hiring. We signed a QB with a horrid career because he had one decent year and Kubiak loves him.

Spoiler alert...They won't take one because I guarantee you, Elway thinks he's found his guy. This move may be Elway's undoing at this point. He's already had a crap ton of questionable moves, this may be the straw that breaks the Broncos back.

I don't particularly like the move, either, but I'm done with the "gotta make X move because 'locker room.'" They stuck with Siemian way too long for that crap, and it hurt the team in the long run.

It is getting old hearing/reading how defense is mad at offense. This is why in my heart of hearts I thought they should have started PL over TS

Now quick, someone tell me how he never got a real shot and Jeff Fisher made him suck. Then tell me that what turned into the best one two WR punch in the NFL didn't carry him. Zimmer wasn't even sold on him. His god damn GM isn't even sold on him. God damned Kubiak continues to curse.

This has Kubiak’s fingerprints all over it, Keenum is nobody’s “guy” but Kube’s.

Trying to look at the positive because what the hell else can I do at this point.

Positives are he did well on a defense focused team, like what we have.

He did well with good receivers, like what we have.

He did well with an OC that uses west coast and spread concepts, like we have.

He needs a good running game, so we need to fix this line. No more bullshitting. If you are paying for the lesser QB then the money saved better finally fix some shit. I know you have tried to fix it before...no more trying. Fix it or this will NOT be Keenum 2017.

Never takes too long before I'm reminded how much I'm glad most people here don't get paid to make player evaluations and personnel decisions.

His own mother thought he was overpaid.

Then tell me how this coaching staff is supposed to get the ‘17 Keenum going forward.

It's funny, because everyone feels that way about everyone who disagrees with them.

At least you don't come off as pretentious, though.

We got better at the QB position and we're not gonna spend 30+M to do it. Keenum was the second best FA QB truly available (Drew Brees ain't goin' anywhere) and he's considerably cheaper than Cousins.

We have opened ourselves up to do any number of things with the #5 pick and we have some cap space we can spend to hopefully fix our OL which is the biggest hole on the team.

This is a good move you guys.

First, we're going to make sure the best QB on the top team is injured! Then, we're going to get career years from our WR's! Then, we're going to ride the defense! After that we're going to watch the QB suck in the playoffs and then chase other FA QB's....wait a minute....

They need a BPA or a trade that generates good return value. They do not need to reach at 5 for a QB.

Reach? Lol

Case Keenum ... $18-$20 M per. <—- that’s a reach.
