Does Denver have any interest in him or is he a completely different player than we want?

Last I heard there wasn't really any interest. They don't view him as a great fit for what they want to do on offense.

The Drew Lock chatter seemed to quiet down, but maybe that is just my perception. There is so much time before the draft it could change 10 times. The DeAndre Baker pick is interesting to me. That could set up our DBs for the 5-6 years if he is as good as some think he will be. That would fit for the trade down. If we are looking to drafting the top TE we might be able to trade down twice. Trade to 15 and trade to 20-22. I have not looked at the draft order so this may not be accurate. If we were able to trade down twice it would allow us to gain some draft capital for being able to move up in 2020.

Any chatter about Booker being traded? He seems like a great candidate for mid to low draft pick. With Lindsay and Freeman the odds of him seeing many snaps seems remote and I don't see him resigning here next year. I don't see him signing a big enough contract next year to get us a comp pick.

This is concerning to me a bit. Draft the best player and find a system that works for the talent that you have. It seems there is a system we want to run on offense and we are going to force a square peg into a round hole until it works or we move on to another coaching staff.

Well there are only two names that come to mind in Haskins and Lock. You don't trade up that much unless it is for a QB.
Quinnen Williams Is the only player I move up for, I can get on board with Haskins. But Williams is truly worth the move up

Sounds more like they are looking for a peg that fits.

I guess I view this the other way around. Scangarello has told them the type of QB that best works in his system and the Broncos are now trying to find that type of QB. Personally I'm a fan of this mentality as the way I understand the Lynch drafting was that Kubiak didn't want him as he thought he could turn Siemian into a star or at least a good QB and Elway just saw loads of potential in what Lynch could be. So it wasn't a good communication between the two. This time around it seems to be more both sides agreeing who the best QB is that fits what they want and getting that guy.

Would Elway pass on Lock at #10?

The organization needs to agree on who should be the QB of the future.

I like taking talented players and finding ways to use their skills.

I'm hearing the price for Rosen would be much lower than I would have thought. I think they could easily get a first for the guy, but my buddy has been seeing stuff on Redskins sites that they could get him for their 3rd round comp pick. I think I would definitely give up our 3rd for him, which is at the top of the round. Maybe even our 2nd.

Even though I don't think we'll get AB I trust Ian Rapoport more than Mike Klis
True, but this time of year, there will be all sorts of rumors flying around.

I don't think there is strong enough leadership in the Broncos locker room to have AB here.

I agree, however I feel as if a “cancer” or a diva type personality would be corralled pretty quick under a Fangio led team. I also believe leaders will be created pretty quick in the locker room under the same premise.

I don't want Antonio Brown's attitude nor his salary on the Broncos. Hard pass.

Before AB I would resign DT on a prove it a 1-year contract if he starts back on his previous Diet.
