Denver....

....just wasted their first round draft pick I think. I do not think The Golden Calf of Bristol's college skills as a QB will translate to the NFL. I would have put him as 3-4 round value at best....playing something other than QB.

Could be wrong. Time will tell.

The pick was definitely a big gamble, but here's how I see it: Josh McDaniels now has himself a supremely talented and athletic player who is extremely coachable that he can now totally strip down and rebuild as he sees fit, and he has a stop gap in Orton & Quinn to hold court until The Golden Calf of Bristol is ready, which will not be this year. I bet he doesn't see the field this season unless it's the final couple/few games of the season and Denver is far out of the playoff hunt.

But, yes, big gamble and time will tell whether it pays off or if it was a total waste.

so its worth giving up ure 2nd 3rd and 4th for a guy that will be a backup for 3 years? Ya sorry..no link.

Guess it will depend on what he does after those three years.....I just agree with Dimbee that it was a big gamble that could pay off or be a total waste. In the day and age of so many high profile players having no work ethic and getting suspended for sucking at life, at least you know neither one of those things will be an issue.

I just wonder what will happen when The Golden Calf of Bristol has a press conference to inform everyone that God told him to be a missionary in Africa instead.

What do you think will happen? Or was that an attempt at a funny?

If the biggest "knock" on the guy is that he's religious, then I'll take him any day over your DUI/Rapist/Gun-toting everyday NFLer every single time.

    • There are a couple of options. One is just to not accept your commission and just pay back the Academy for your education. Alot of money for normal folk, but if you're drafted high enough it's a drop in the bucket. You'll need a waiver not to go in enlisted, but normally drafted players get waivers to join the reserves instead of active duty military. Showing that you can actually go to the NFL from a military academy is much better for recruitment than having one more officer on a ship/sub/aircraft. Things were different in the Staubach and David Robinson days. I remember Mike Wahle just paying back the Academy after getting kicked out for steroids after his junior year. Not a big deal when you're drafted in the 2nd round. 
    • have 10 dollars riding on the hornets to win the division to pay out 1200, my buddy has multiple bets but one would pay out close to 15k 
    • Whoever you get has to be able to shoot a 3 for spacing purposes, especially if you want to replace Miles at 4 with Moose and run a different center.    I like the Miles for Giannis trade idea but where do you put him? At center?    Can you imagine a double screen and roll/slip with with Lamelo, Giannis and Kon... 👀   If you do that trade you need another free agent / draft pick to play at 4 that can stretch the floor otherwise I don't think it works.
