I wonder what the Broncos are giving up for Flacco. Slight upgrade at QB but a bigger signal that our quarterback of the future is coming out in the 2020 draft. Best player available at #10 in this year's draft and go get their guy next year. Feels like a one year band-aid to me. Meh but great for the future if we land the big fish next year, I guess.

Not thrilled. Wasn’t thrilled about Keenum either but warmed up to him as the season approached. Hope we didn’t cough up too much.

Could be one of our two 4th round picks. I'm a little worried about the cap hit with Flacco's big salary and the dead money the Broncos get stuck with if they cut Keenum.

Kubes and Fangio coached around him. Scangerello can fix him. ;)

Flacco is better than Keenum. Keenum was terrible last year. Plays were there to be made all year and Keenum failed to pull the trigger. Flacco is a middle of the pack guy who can win with talent.

This may just be Elway hating Keenum and making sure he has a QB before FA. Could still draft a QB . Who knows.

What about a guy like AB ?

There was a Rahim Moore sighting recently - and now Flacco shows up. Who says the world doesn't have a sense of humor?

The Italians are taking over the Broncos - good thing this isn't WWII.

Wonder if I should start a preemptive "Appreciation" thread like I did for Mark Sanchez.

I finished up John Feinstein's Quarterback last week. Flacco was prominently featured among a study of current NFL quarterbacks. I came away with an appreciation for the guy and his professionalism. I hope this works out for him

You're going to see a different result for play action. This system is built around the running backs and if the running game is working the play action will come and throws down the field.
This move is who Elway is. Is it the right way. Who knows can argue yes and no but its what Elway does and will do until he leaves Dove Valley.

Can’t help but wonder if this is one of the “band-aids” Fangio warned against....

Maybe an upgrade to Keenum, but how much of one really???

Doesn’t necessarily mean we don’t try to get Lock or another QB in this year’s draft though....
