Quarterback Poll

[MileHigh64]

There are a lot of threads looking for discussion on the Head Coaching search. Finding a quarterback will be more important. This upcoming quarterback draft class doesn't look great but you never know. Since there are no easy answers, this poll allows for selection of 3 options. Feel free to list them in order of preference.

This poll is not "who will be" the starting QB but "who should be".

I’m all for Lock getting one more “prove it” season with a coach that actually wants to try and make him better. He’s got one year left on his rookie deal, let him try to salvage a career out of the the damage done by Shurmur.

I'm not a big fan of this year's draft class but 2023 looks like it could be better. I would be okay with giving Lock a full year with our eye on a better rookie next year.

I would pull for Rodgers if he winds up in a Broncos uniform but I greatly prefer the age and character of a Russell Wilson.

If we're going to go out and buy a QB, we may as well get one that will be around for as long as possible. Unless Watson's situation miraculously clears up, Wilson seems like the best bet. If we can't do that, then we probably go with another year of what we just had, but next year's QB class seems much better.

 

[The Q]

Aaron Rodgers or draft crazy.

No other option.

 

[Broncosr0k]

Draft Crazy is the only right answer.

His salary demands may be high so my 2nd option is roll with Lock another year.

 

[fightinredantz]

My first choice would Russell Wilson, if we are not able to swing a trade for Wilson, I just roll with Lock.

I went against the grain and voted for Kenny Pickett. Although he doesn’t have the strongest arm, from what little I’ve seen of him I think he is more cerebral and quicker processor.

I’m usually wrong, so take that into account.

I like the two Teddy option.

I like the two Teddy option.

Are you sure you aren't a Chiefs and/or Raiders fan??

Should be Josh Allen, but Elway didn’t think he was worth a 1st round pick so we took Bradley Chubb instead.

 

[MileHigh64]

Realizing I left a couple of other options off this list that have bantered about in the media. Jimmy G. and DeShaun Watson. I think @Draft Crazy is a better option though.

You betray dc….

….you jerk!

Early poll results:

1. Russell Wilson
2. Drew Lock
3. Kenny Pickett / @Draft Crazy (tie)

Most articles that I've read on Wilson is that he really wants to remain in Seattle. Drew Lock is under contract and available. Kenny Pickett might not be available at #9. Draft Crazy is....well crazy.

We're in quarterback purgatory.

 

[wishful thinking]

Malik Willis will be the best quarterback out of this draft, but I want Rodgers or Wilson and if you can't get one of them you keep Lock.

I still say run with Lock one more year, while going BPA early in the draft and then selecting Bailey Zappe. May not have all the "prototypical" skills, but he seems to have the requisite grey matter upstairs.

I like Pickett too .. I also like Carson Strong .. But I'm not sure either is better than Lock ... This is where the smarts and dedication and all that stuff we don;t really see comes in ..

One thing about Lock is that it seems Peyton Manning has always been there in his corner -and as far as gauging dedication and prepping and NFL mindset, you don;t get a better endorsement than that .. ok, maybe "endorsement" isn;t the right word, but I doubt Manning would have given positive comments and time to Paxton Lynch the way he has w/ Lock ... He seems to genuinely like him and want him to succeed

I'm sure you remember when Cleveland took Denzel Ward, and how with Vance and Von Miller, Chubb seemed like a steal ... you cannot blame Elway for taking him .. I wanted the Broncos to take Allen, I think a few people here did too, but you can't kill Elway for taking Chubb ... He was the consensus superstar in the making by everyone -- in other words, not many saw him as the mediocre player he , unfortunately, might just be

Sounds like Trevor Siemien.

Although Bailey is a good name for a Denver Bronco. He could be a Champ in no time.

As fans we like to remember players we really wanted - like I really wanted Lavonte David and hated the Osweiler pick instead of him - but not as quick to admit when we were wrong. I was afraid the Broncos might take Josh Allen - I was probably partially scared off by the Paxton Lynch failure. I saw in Allen a lot of what I saw in Lynch, tall with a great arm, hadn't played against top competition, a bit wild with a low cmpletion rate.

I was obviously very wrong, but would he have had the same success here he had in Buffalo? We can guess all day long, but we'll never know. I'm glad for him he ended up where he did. That way the whole state of Wyoming can be part of the Bills mafia!
