i dont think too many people consider Elway a QB guru, i mean he was one of the all time greats at the position, but that usually doesnt amount to much as a GM, especially if you keep living in the past

If Flacco is entering his prime - at age 34 -- IN YEAR 12 - Case Keenum must have, like, unlimited potential at age 31 and year 8. And team 5

So if all goes to plan, Elway will find his QB in this draft then let him sit on the bench to watch Flacco sling it. I know some Broncos fans are patient with that man, got them 3 Super Bowls and all but that was then...Broncos need a QB for the future.

He says it’s hard to evaluate because they play too much shotgun in college. But they should be able to draft one and give them 10 years to learn it.

Elway is an awful GM lol if he didn't get lucky and land Peyton he wouldn't have a job. Osweiller, Lynch, Siemian, Keenum all awful for the Broncos.

Siemian was honestly fine for what he was. A guy you take a flyer on deep, DEEP in the draft because why the hell not. It's more the fact that said player was the Broncos best option at that point is what was truly awful there.

Lynch is the biggest oof on that list. Taken relatively high in the draft and he didn't even look like he was qualified to play football at any level.

Yeah Paxton Lynch was Elway's biggest whiff out of all of them.
A first round pick makes it even worse..

They should ask him why as a "QB Guru" he hasn't been able to find one.
You're thinking of McDaniels.
I hope Elway is the Broncos GM until he’s in the ground
As a Chefs fan you should be intimately familiar with the difficultly getting a franchise QB, what with going 34 years between drafting one to win a single game for you. Packers and Pats fans are in for a rude awakening in a few years.

What made that even worse for the Broncos was that it lead to the Chiefs getting Mahomes.

yeah his starting days are over

not sure if he'd be willing to be a backup so this could be the end for him. he's got a ring and SB MVP so not a bad time to call it quits
