You sound like Gruden when he justified taking Janikowski in the 1st round.

Nelson is one of the top rated players in the entire draft. As for impact, he will immediately start and immediately improve the oline which will immediately make the entire offense better, especially the run game.

You won’t be be able to do that for 2 years. That’s half the timeframe considering a top 5 picks 5th year option will be expensive.

If the Broncos draft Rosen then the Keenum contract is nothing more than a very expensive insurance contract, and essentially the Broncos will be paying Keenum $25m to be a back up QB. But, that’s the chance the Broncos have to take to insure the QB position is viable. If the Broncos trade down and take a QB in the first or second round it’s because he’s not ready to start anyway

If that's how you want to justify taking a guard at 5, be my guest.

Jets just traded up to 3. Darnold and Rosen will be long gone :-)

Broncos want mayfield anyway

He’s gonna be the best of this group and if it’s in Denver we’ll fucking hate him

That's who the Jets are after at 3, methinks. Too much smoke about that one.

You might just get your wish after all, Tombstone.

Unless you're seriously considering taking Allen at 5. :-)

Better pay out the ass to get the Giants' pick if you want a QB who doesn't suck.

Yep, and this is why the Broncos don’t have to take a QB at 5. This also means the Browns will most likely take Barkley at 1 and Allen at 4, leaving Chubb or Nelson at 5.

No way. Darnold at 1 and Barkley at 4.

Ok, then Rosen at 3 and who knows what the Giants are thinking at 2, maybe they take Chubb at 2?

1 Darnold
2 Rosen
3 Mayfield
4 Barkley/Chubb

Assuming someone trades up to 2.

So maybe the Broncos take Barkley at 5

You will end up with Allen and in the mix for a QB again in two years. Jets with the checkmate move to secure the last average QB prospect. (There are zero Mahomes level elite QBs)

Nahh, Mayfield will have an epic Leaf like meltdown or mouth off to the wrong person and get his ass beat. Possibly both.
