Schefter reports Elway to Recruit Harbaugh to Denver

Also says it's almost a certainty that Harbaugh will not be back at Stanford. But, now the Broncos and the Niners have already made their intentions known to get him...

Could this help us in the Luck sweepstakes? I say so... BUT, the more teams interested in Harbaugh, the harder it will be for us to get him IMO.

EDIT: Sorry, didn't see the other thread that touched on this... But, at least this one states it explicitly in the title.

Yeah, but we've seen how well the national media knows JR... smh... Plus, Schefter has ties to the Denver organization, I'm sure he's dreaming of a Elway-Luck-Harbaugh Mount Rushmore in Denver.

Also, just 2 weeks ago he was saying on his chat that a Luck-Harbaugh reunion in Carolina could be possible IIRC, it seems he's backing off of that the more teams are throwing their hat in...

Ok Here is what I do...

If Denver loses today they draft 2nd. If Denver Gets harbaugh you can bet a phone call is made from Bowlen to Jerry R about swapping the #1 and #2 pick....and I do it.

They can have luck, we are rebuilding and we can do like NE does and trade down to get more high round draft picks. If Denver wants to swap I make them pay for it, then I take someone like Fairley, Bowers, Darius OR....Ryan Mallett with his huge arm.

This could be win win esp if we can get Bill Cowher in hand.

That would purely be a last resort option for me. I want Luck and I want QB taken care of for 10+ years barring catastrophic injury, and it seems like this guy is the person to fill that role. You can't pass that up. NE is in a position to make those moves because they don't have to worry about the biggest position on the roster, they just need talent to build around him.

If we pass on Luck if he declares, we will spend the next 5-10 years still hoping to find a guy that can keep us treading water at QB until we finally hit on one through the draft, and I'm tired of doing that.

I think if Harbaugh is going to any NFL team he's coming here so he can draft his franchise QB.

It would certainly take a lot of the 'if's out of the equation for him. I keep thinking, 'man, I hope JR treated him good when he was here that last year of his career and he has good memories of the place.' :D

    • His footwork has been discussed many times over related to not just within the pocket but the quality of his drop backs and how while his receivers have been an issue his own footwork has created issues with his receivers. It is a mutual give and take dynamic after all. As far as his deep passing goes I will happily admit I saw some very impressive long throws from Bryce later in the season and I said so at the time and I'm still saying so now. That doesn't mean that there still aren't issues and beyond some instances of him flat out missing receivers deep that he knows he needs to get corrected I think there are still some throws to the sideline that defenses are going to test Bryce on early and often and until he can prove he can beat defenses on those throws consistently they will play him the same way. As far as talk of Bryce being top ten and the metrics that define that different people are going to have different answers and I've said before after the conclusion of the 2024 season that I'm going to try to put yardage aside in some cases and just focus on what Bryce is doing both between the 20's moving the ball and how our redzone scoring percentage is looking. The biggest thing I'm looking for this season is scoring points. Not just field goals. Touchdowns. If the offense is moving consistently and reaching the end zone more often than not and not squandering drives and settling for field goals then I am going to be content for the time being. I do not expect miracles this season. I expect development competiveness and both sides of the ball particularly the offensive given the investments we've made trending upward. And no blowout losses. I don't think that's an unreasonable ask do you agree? 🫡
    • It's also worth noting that Cam himself said that he felt safer when running vs. sitting in the pocket because he could see the contact coming and could better prepare for it. A QB running the ball doesn't have to be a sledgehammer. He just has to be effective.
    • That Falcons game is about as good as it gets. Especially on the road. I know the Falcons defense was bad but he was cooking with Coker, an undrafted rookie get the bulk of the receptions. If your QB has 5 TDs and 0 turnovers he is playing like a top QB, yardage be damned. The big question for me is how consistently can be play the whole season?  I don’t expect a game like that every week, but I also don’t want to see any performances like the pre benching or that Cowboys game (which was bad post benching). Bryce’s best shot at being the guy is becoming a mini-Burrow who is about as consistent as you can get at the QB position.  The good news is this QB class should be a fun one. So hopefully Bryce becomes the guy, if not it’s a nice class to let DC pick his QB and they should come into a great situation with a good OL, RB, young talented WRs etc…
