The Broncos won with pass rushers and a fanboy head referee.

We can get the DEs. Tepper needs to come out of his pockets for the refs.

They won and haven’t been back to the playoffs since. Getting an elite QB is the most important thing in sustained success. A good coach is obviously important as well.

It's so hard to tell these days.  I have my concerns about Young but I have to say the skill level and the ability to read a defense and make all the throws trumps size.  I would not be crying if we drafted him.

I was 4'11 as a Junior in high school and grew 13 inches in 21 months.  When I graduated I was 6 foot and grew another inch.  Looking at the picture of Young at the ESPY he looks like a kid.  I would believe he's got another inch or to in him.   He'll definitely gain some weight.

I also believe by the end of the year Hooker is going to be in the top 5 QB talk.  He's smart and very athletic.

I don't know much about Levis so I will be watching Kentucky this weekend to get a better opinion of him.

Stroud, is another QB I need to watch more of but some of his highlights concern me.  He can make all the throws but it just seems to me they float more than zip.  But like I said I need to watch more of him.

How so? I’m listening. Your statement is the exact same thing I heard for months leading up to the 2019 draft and it turned out to be completely inaccurate. 

Because Murray isn't that great. I wouldn't want him myself but that's just me.  He's obviously head and shoulders better than anyone we've fielded since Cam but I just don't think he will ever help a team get to a SB.

Just read this article on Yahoo about Bryce Young: https://sports.yahoo.com/bryce-youngs-nfl-draft-prospects-are-dogged-by-questions-about-his-size-and-thats-about-it-173848416.html

It's about something I think is going to be a major question for us this off-season: Young's size.

Young is pretty clearly the most NFL-ready QB in this draft. If he were a few inches taller and a few pounds heavier I think he'd be the slam-dunk #1 pick.

Which begs the question: just how important are those few inches and pounds? Enough to bypass Young in favor of a Will Levis or C.J. Stroud?

I'm starting to think the answer may be no.

If Young was 6’4” 230 he’s be being talked about as the next true generational QB prospect. He’s that talented. The more I see of him the more I like.  He’s like the Steph Curry of QBs. Dude is money.

I will go ahead and say I don’t even care about Young’s size.  The guy played hurt last week and took some vicious shots.  All he did next was put on a QB display that was jaw dropping.  He is the guy IMO

I feel people get so enamored or specific about QB’s size/weight/speed and don’t look to see if he has that “it” factor. Young has that and I’ll be over the moon if we draft him. 
 

CJ Stroud has all the measurables physically, but looks robotic out there to me. Young makes it look easy. I’m not a QB guru, but I’d put my stock in Young all day.

That’s fine and a valid concern, but not my argument. Imo BY is a much better prospect out of college than Kyler. The arm talent, decision making, and knowledge of when to use legs (vs Kyler relying too much) creates an elite skill set. 
 

I just think it’s an extremely lazy argument to dismiss it as “he will never make it in the NFL cause his size”. Is it a risk factor to consider? Yes of course. But that other clown who is just saying off the wall poo and making up fake heights and weights to look smart? Nah that’s absurd.

    • If you draft a guy who is healthy and has no concerns about that whatsoever and he goes out and tears his ACL in his first few games in the regular season on a physical play that's a freak accident. But when you trade up to draft an RB who is already rehabbing from a recent ACL tear and he spends the next several months continuing his rehab only to tear the same ACL again after less than a handful of regular season carries in a non contact circumstance that is no freak accident. That is a textbook example of why you do not do what we did. Particularly for what is now a plug and play position. And when you have the highest paid OL in the league over the next two years. None of that makes any logical sense. Legitimately it is and was some Scott Fitterer type foolishness. Now as for XL. The guy has not been committed to his craft. I think anyone with eyes on the situation can and would recognize that. However the warning signs were there. One season of legit production raw prospect that we knew would take time to develop etc. But Morgan and Bryce Young's own father were very high on him. I think in some capacity the reality of our limitation at QB is entering into the equation. Even TMac got a lot of flak over the course of his rookie season for not being able to haul in all of Bryce's passes. At the end of the day our fourth year QB also needs to do his part to maximize the talent we have available. As far as this year. Again. WR round 1 boils down to where are we going to get the touches for the rookie? That would require eating into not only our 8th overall picks touches but also our #2 WR whom oh yeah by the way was UNDRAFTED. I am happy to discuss WR prospects here. I was thrilled we invested what we did last year in TMac because it needed to be done and it made sense from all angles. But nowhere is it written in stone that you cannot draft a good or great WR outside of the first round. Except in the Panthers building apparently. That is not a good reflection on our scouts and front office let me tell ya. Because there's no way on this earth we are going to get back to relevancy and legitimate contender status if we can't pick some gems in the later rounds. Simple and plain.
    • This is pretty accurate our offense needs more juice. I love Cooker but he’s not enough XL ummm we’ll see this year hopefully the third year WR thing hits him and he plays better but still not enough. Honestly we need look at the Eagles they just adds Wicks and Hollywood Brown to that core. That shows the level of talent needed to compete at a championship level this coming season. And this below is the real problem KC doesn’t seem to add that much to our offense. We Makai Lemon or defense at 19
