Would You Trade Down and Pick Up Tebow? Pair him with McDaniels ?

If any of you saw the The Golden Calf of Bristol documentary for 'Year of the QB' the other night, they actually had us listed on the agent's board as one of the teams that were interested in him on draft day. Me and Dpantherman briefly discussed it while it was on and I think most of us knew that the team was interested but we had no 1st rounder (thanks Everette Brown).

Anyway, I don't know how many of you saw Peter King's tweet/reports today that John Elway doesn't think The Golden Calf of Bristol is a "very good NFL QB" and depending where McDaniels ended up that team may trade for The Golden Calf of Bristol.

Two questions:

1) One which I've been contemplating for awhile... Would you bring in McDaniels as an offensive coordinator/QBs coach? I think he would be awesome for us in that role, just as he was in NE. I think it may have been too early for him as a HC in regards to the personality management aspect (Brandon Marshall, Jay Cutler, etc.)

2) Regardless of what happens with McDaniels, would you trade back in the draft for The Golden Calf of Bristol with the Broncos? I know they're only one position behind us, but I could see how they would be interested in a guy like Bowers at #1 and possibly Gabbert if they're stretching, who knows? But, if we could trade them the #1 pick or dangle it out there that we'd be trading with a team behind them and that team may look to take the player they have targeted as I think our #1 pick isn't as valuable as others have in past.

I think if we could trade back that spot and get The Golden Calf of Bristol and pick up their 2nd, it would put us in a better position at the QB position because I think The Golden Calf of Bristol will be a good NFL QB and a winner, and it would still allow us to pretty much take who we want in the 1st and get a 2nd in the process.

I know The Golden Calf of Bristol is pretty polarizing guy, although I think that's a bias based off of personal beliefs, but purely football-wise, what do you think?

EDIT: Don't feel like checking for errors, but may be some because I'm watching TV as I was typing, lol.

I would. At some point this offseason, we're going to have to take a risk on bringing in a QB.

Whether that's reaching for a rookie, or making a crazy deal, we're going to have to target a guy, and take a chance on him. We've got no choice.

The Golden Calf of Bristol showed promise last year, I'd take him.

Though it's crazy to think Denver would trade him to move up one spot for nobody..

Just no. So if Elway thinks The Golden Calf of Bristol sucks, why should we pick him up?

Just because Elway was a HOF QB himself in his playing days, doesn't mean he's a great evaluator of talent either. I bet Elway thought his son was better than The Golden Calf of Bristol... Look how that worked out.

I honestly hated Elways overbite ass until like the last 2 years of his career. I was a baby when he came out, but from how he handled himself, it's clear he's been a prima donna from day one, so I don't really care what he thinks.

If you saw those last two games he started/played, I saw an NFL QB, and a pretty good one. At worst he'd be a throw in player who'd be an automatic upgrade over Jimmy.

IF we picked up McDaniels as OC, I wouldn't object to that trade for The Golden Calf of Bristol. McDaniels had him playing pretty good at the end of the year, so I think he could turn him in to at least a good NFL quarterback. We would have our QB of the future, plus we could draft just about anyone with the 2nd pick.

Remember, Matt Moore had a GREAT record at the end of two seasons' garbage time. Doesn't mean he'll be a good franchise QB

Good point, but I still think Matt Moore can be a productive NFL QB with better coaching/surrounding circumstances.

That being said, I also think The Golden Calf of Bristol has better tools naturally. His delivery improved as well, and I expect him to get better.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
