Broncos 2017 NFL Draft

[Draft Crazy]

Dude, it's the Browns.

 

[Dr Cyanide 28]

told the Giants and the Buccs had a deal worked out for 19... then OJ fell right into TBs lap... deal was off then

 

[Draft Crazy]

I was told the Buccaneers like OJ Howard.

 

[Dr Cyanide 28]

today's dream scenario lol

51. Zach Cunningham
82. Gerald Everett
101. Curtis Samuel

 

[Draft Crazy]

Dream is right. lol

I'd give birth to a horse for that.

AM I the only one that thinks the Browns really didn't go a "Great" job for having 3 picks?

Anytime you have 3 first rounders you did pretty well, but I think if I were a Cleveland fan, not sure how happy I would be about picks 2 and 3. Guys I had more of early round 2 picks.

TE draft is deep. I think Njoku is a bit overrated in a deep TE draft.

Peppers should have picked one position in college and stuck with it. Which should have been S. He would have been much more developed now... Now he is underdeveloped on a team that struggles to develop.

didnt love the peppers pick at all tbh

Early round two and late first are the same player in most drafts.

If you did some data analysis and looked at a player taken late in round one and then compared his career to the next player taken at the same position you would find half the time the player taken 2nd had same or better career. This was a study by the Wall Street Journal regarding the 2012 draft.

Browns - trades were smart - the picks were dumb.

 

[CEH]

Add in CLEV got a #1 in 2018 so you can't objectively say the picks were dumb if both players were high 2nd rounders Just like Denver mostly over drafts by half a round when picking #32. You have to when you pick at the end of the round. No difference here with CLEV.

 

[SpringStein]

Now you know how I feel about the head Coach . I wanted Garett Bolles ...So I like were we are so far ..

Here's the difference:
There hasn't been, and I doubt will be anyone saying, "I can't wait until he is cut! I can't stand the guy!"

I may not have loved the pick, but sure hope it turns out great for the Broncos.

This is exactly how I feel in the long run going forward. I hope he pans out now that he's here. I'm just not a fan of tunnel vision drafting that imo John did today and most of his drafts as GM day 1 and 2..

If Lamp is at our pick in RD2 lets finish our OL building. Esp when Cook Mixon Samuels now will be gone.

It's obvious the Oline needed to get nastier and needed a "jolt". Bolles hopefully brings that.

I like the trades and think that Cleveland played this one smart. I wasn't a fan of any of the QB's in this draft so getting the fire power again for next year that is expected to be a great QB class makes a ton of sense.

The picks I'm a bit meh about. I don't think that Myles Garrett will turn into the top tier player some are expecting. Not saying he will be a bust just not as good as some think. I'm really not a fan of Peppers. If I were the Browns I would actually be moving him to the offensive side of the ball and seeing what I can get out of him. Njoku I like as he is a developmental player and well they have some time here to allow him to develop and see what he can become.

I love this quote by the kid yesterday and he does show this type of attitude on tape...

"I’m just excited to get out there and put guys in the dirt," Bolles said. "My running back, Devontae Booker or whoever it is, can score touchdowns. If you touch my receiver, you touch my quarterback, you touch anyone on my team or my organization, it’s like touching my wife; you’re going to get in trouble by me."

Does it matter though Clev and Jax waste any talent the collect anyways. Until they hit on QB they will underachieve.

Good point. Still to me to develop long-term success the worst thing you can do is panic at the QB position. I mean look at this past year with people getting after Elway for not locking up Osweiler long-term. Well Osweiler might have just destroyed the Texans franchise for the next 5-7 years because of the terrible deal and just needing to get him out of town.

So while yes they need to get a QB I'm also not going to use a top tier pick unless I believe in the guy I am drafting.

 

[Mingo]

The thing about Os - that is the most stunning - is how completely the Texans gave up on him after one season. The Texans must have had a good look see at his character -and come out negative.

D. Watson is going to be fun to watch, but the very thought of him going against the No Fly Zone Broncos - is so satisfying to contemplate.

broncos trying to trade up
Many say Mixon or Adam shaheen as targets
