He's got a ring as a GM...admittedly, I don't quite understand this move, more experience, but more or less lateral performance lately....I trust the compensation was rather low.

Manning was the one good move he made at the QB position

Other than Manning falling in his lap, though, he has been beyond bad at the QB position. Ironic.

For Denver? I would have drafted Josh Allen probably.

3 premier edge guys? Didn't the get Bradley Chubb ly? Miller is nearly 30, but still a very productive edge.

If they stayed at 12...I would go for Devin White, or see if I could pick up #20 and AB for the 10th pick, and with #20 take Murphy the CB from WAS.

True...but what I like is he's willing to make moves to improve the team...if it doesn't work, he tries again....I said LY that Keenum was a safe play if they weren't going to land Cousins...far less money with not a whole lot more risk.

Because he's CONSTANTLY looking to run the football and he's 210 pounds at 6'2"? He ran the ball 147 times in 7 GS. LOL, that's not sustainable. Receivers will hate him because a) he looks to run too much, and b) that flick throw he does is trash and doesn't help the receivers at all (no touch/poor placement).

I agree he ran too much last year but that's not uncommon for young QB's.

You got to remember the Ravens had to invent an entire (but limited) offense midway through the season to be more run heavy to accommodate an inexperienced QB. They weren't expecting Jackson to play much last year.

If they run the exact same offense next year, I agree that would be bad for them.

Yeah, I get that, but he's not standing pat on those bad moves....I think he knew Keenum was not the long term answer.

Time for another Osweiler deal? Offer Elway a 5th in exchange for a 2nd and Keenum so he doesn't have to pay him?
That's just another step back for them as a team though. They really need draft capital right now. I think the smarter move would've obviously been to not trade for a lame fuck like Flacco and try and grab your future QB in the 1st to sit for a year behind Keenum. Elway shits the bed again.

I wonder if he'll regret taking Chubb instead of Allen at some point.

He's doing a spectacular job at ensuring his place remains as top QB in franchise history.

True, but not anywhere near that much.

Guy was on pace for over 300 attempts, LOL. Michael Vick never ran for more attempts in his career in a season as Jackson had in SEVEN games!

He's WAY too run happy, and I think his throw mechanics are piss poor resulting in stiff passes and sailing balls.

If Allen becomes the next Von Miller...maybe.

Short of that level of play, probably not. Chubb is on fast track to being a top edge player himself.

Josh Allen the QB; in a “If I wanted to sabotage the Broncos mock draft”

I don’t know why Moose is so happy, I’m not thrilled about this but at least Denver has a QB that’s been to a SB and actually did something in the playoffs. Sounds like Moose is a little jealous.

2 guys named Josh Allen as top 10 picks in two straight drafts is more confusing than it should be. New Josh Allen (UK) needs a nickname
