I haven’t dug into these QBs because my team has Patrick Mahomes :-)
If the Broncos are going to draft their guy, Willis or Corral would probably be the guy for me.
Remember, Mahomes wasn’t seen as a sure thing by any means, hence why he fell to 10. You have to have foresight and be willing to take a risk. Veach thought he was getting “the best player” he’s “ever” seen. Turns out, he was right. [Reply]

This revisionist history you guys tell about Reach is hilarious. He probably did like him a lot, but so did Ballard, Dorsey and Reid. If they didn't like Mahomes it wouldn't have mattered how much Veach liked him, the Chiefs wouldn't have drafted him.
Veach pushed for Mahomes. Andy spent an entire day with Patrick and the other QB’s and loved Mahomes.
Andy signed off bc Andy is in charge of everything under Clark Hunt [Reply]

Pat Surtain is a shutdown corner. Stud rushers and QB's come out nearly every year, a guy like Surtain comes around every 5 or 6 years.
Javonte Williams is a monster, and will be a consistent Pro Bowler if he stays healthy.
Meinerz was a solid hit at guard in the third.
Baron Browning was another hit in the third.
Caden Sterns in the 5th is a steal. He's the reason we're going to let Kareem Jackson walk and why we won't even consider drafting Kyle Hamilton at 9.
Jonathon Cooper was a steal in the 7th round.
Nick Bolton was better than Devin Bush. He’s had one of the best rookie seasons of recent for a LB of anyone not named Darius Leonard.
Javonte Williams is a RB. There are RB’s like him every year. Nick Chubb, Jonathan Taylor, JK Dobbins, Dalvin Cook, Alvin Kamara, Kareem Hunt.
A RB is not that impressive. It’s the easiest position to fill in a roster. That’s why I was pissed that my team drafted Clyde Edwards-Helaire in the first rd. [Reply]

You're talking to a guy who patterned his username after Knowshon fucking Moreno. Knowshon Moreno. [Reply]

That’s also why teams tend to get burned by drafting a RB high. They aren’t worth what teams give up for them. [Reply]
