The Broncos are not trading up for anything but a qb. Be afraid. You know what i mean.

It's a huge problem. Denver has a ton of picks.

It would, and it's plausible. It's been a fear of mine all day. They like darnold.

The broncos have the draft ammo to do this.

He coached at colorado state for 3-4 years. It's in the same conference as wyoming, and i'm suggesting homer-ism.

Isn't a passing grade from Steve Fairchild the equivalent of an F? More seriously, Fairchild has a dog in this fight given that he coached in that conference and may well be inclined to overestimate it.

Yup. Paterson is a great Jim Jarmusch movie too (if you like that sort of thing).

He re-opened the can of worms is what he did.

Pegs may not be the most silver-tongued of owners, but he's certainly better than the troglodytic Bob McNair. Jeez -- with friends like these, who needs enemies? By opening up his trap to opine on Richardson's case, he just created a ton of problems for the Panthers franchise (and Richardson himself). https://www.si.com/nfl/2018/04/26/jerry-richardson-allegations-carolina-panthers

I feel that way about Darnold. We'll know soon enough.

Um ... I recognize myself. https://deadspin.com/god-help-me-im-addicted-to-the-nfls-brilliant-horseshi-1825564837

This is actually a very sensible mock even if it ends up being incorrect. Kudos to Joe B.

Denver has 5, 40, 71, 99, 106, and 109. That's arguably as good as what we have given the huge premium on the #5 slot.

He only nailed the draft last year if they get the right qb this year. If they don't, last year's draft will have been a disaster (assuming Watson and Mahomes are as good as they currently look). The jury is still out.

It's a 12-15 year proposition if the QB is good, Dog. I'm surprised that you're a "fill the holes" guy--you and Bucky G!

I'll trust him if he doesn't screw this up by going conservative and settling. He hasn't done anything yet except strip assets from the team and trade for a 4.7-40 WR and sign a low-production DT, both of whom were on his prior team (hence comfort-zone moves). Don't get me wrong; I like him and think he'll do the right thing. But he has to actually do it.

Who do you want?

One of the great things about American society now is that passionate fans about pretty much anything (Game of Thrones, hardcore board gaming, rock climbing, steampunk culture, 60s mod fashion, the NFL draft, you name it) can find an platform to opine on their subject of expertise and engage with others who have a similar passion. I have no sympathy for the views of these three, whose comments amount to fan-shaming. A lot of those fans are pretty smart, and know more than paid reporters do. I'd take a Buffalo News column penned by Badolbilz or Kirby any day over any one of these three (although Graham has had some good moments). After all, Sullivan and Graham work for a publication featuring Bucky Gleason, who if he had the run of the Bills would be leading a 1-15 franchise every year if they followed his advice.

I love Darnold. I prefer him to Rosen by a measurable amount, and I really like Rosen.

If the Bills get Darnold, I'm going to be very happy for a long time.

I think the Jags should move to London. It'd be good for the game.

I would take Darnold, but a plausible case can be made for Mayfield. Not so for Allen.

If Mayfield really does go #1, I think Allen will be the only option because I suspect the Giants will take Darnold and the Jets Rosen. Sucks, but that's my fear.

Great read. God I hope we don't take Allen. Darnold above all for me. But we won't get a chance.

Irrespective of the tweet nonsense, I think the Bills will be making a big mistake if they draft Allen. He strikes me as an unholy combo of Drew Bledsoe and Brock Osweiler.
