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.

I remember hearing the exact same thing when Kyler came out

But to be fair which ever QB we draft I’ll start running down the others and proclaiming ours as a franchise saviour

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.

Yeah probably. Definitely not an ideal size, especially for a top 5 pick. 

To be fair a successful comparison would be Brees but Young might be an inch or so shorter

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.

I asked my wife about few inches and pounds.  She said it’s goes a looong way.

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.
