That's far worse than anything Veach has done..
I said on draft day, I was happy they passed on him...
Sorry, you're incorrect. Paton picked Justin Jefferson in that draft. Unfortunately for the Broncos, he was still the GM for the Vikings at that point. [Reply]

You are assuming the inept coaching staff of the Donks wouldnt have snuffed out Allen's career before it started. [Reply]

Rick Spielman picked Justin Jefferson. If Veach doesn’t get any credit for Mahomes bc he wasn’t the GM at the time then neither does Paton [Reply]

Didnt he trade for Cousins too...in a fully guaranteed contract?
He got them one OT WC win...kind of like Moobs in the past 5 seasons.
You are correct though...Juedy was the result of the drunks draftday dart board. [Reply]

A truly elite RB can extremely impactful, though. Just look at how much better your offense was with Kareem Hunt than without him.
And yet your guards and centers suck. Sounds like General Pay a Ton isn't getting it done! [Reply]

Nah...he is exactly what he is. A River's type that fails against top teams in pressure moments. He'll never make a SB in his career....he's had top skill talent to work with too. Jefferson, Diggs, Thielen...Cook. [Reply]

Rivers is being very generous. Rivers is a possible HOFer.

Cousins is closer to Alex Smith.
All three of those QBs didnt have "it"...no matter how much talent they were surrounded with.
QBs are what they are...Allen being a rare exception. He's actually improved every year...
Like I try to tell Donk homers...you arent going to a SB with Moobs unless you have an all-world supporting cast. History shows this...and he was awful in his last post-season game. He isnt Brady or Manning...he hasn't been good in high pressure play-offs games in years.
Trying to tell Donk fans that their roster isnt special is like convincing a cult member that their leader isnt the chosen one...history or facts dont apply. [Reply]
#Broncos P Sam Martin is being released today by Denver after indicating he would refuse any pay reduction. He was a top 5 punter statistically in 2021 and set Broncos all-time record for net punting last season. Will have interest.
