Can't wait to see what this full package is. Broncos have serious weapons on offense and a solid defense.

 

[syrBossHogg]

Mahomes took a discount now.

Also Denver will have to pivot to Russell Wilson.

Right on cue

 

[Cusefan0307]

Surprised that got done. Will be interesting to see how Wilson does there. He hasn't been that good in a season and a half.

 

[Ryand877]

Chargers just resigned Mike Williams. 3 years, 60 million, 40 guaranteed.

 

[Melancer46]

Honestly feel kinda bad for the Raiders. Finally a solid team after all these years and they’re almost guaranteed last place.

 

[chugg21]

With the extra picks the Broncos got in the Von deal, they may only have to give up next years 1st among futures. Have #9 plus 2 2nds and 2 3rds. Wonder if the player(s) involved will be high end (Surtain) or mid-tier (Hamler/Patrick/Fant) types.

Where this gets really interesting is whether Seattle seriously shops their other guys like DK or if they keep him around to help their new QB

Drew Lock and Shelby Harris.

Drew Lock and Shelby Harris.

Well those 2 are big nothing burgers. I'd have to guess it's #9, both 2nds, a 3rd and next year 1 with them.

Surtainly. (Sorry, I couldn't resist)

Those two and Noah Fant. #9 pick. One of the 2nds this year, and a future 1st and 2nd.

I think the Broncos gave up an awful lot. If they were getting Russell Wilson from 3-4 years ago it might be justified. The 2021 version of Russell Wilson def dropped a few notches from that guy a few years ago. Maybe that was health related, I don't know. Seattle wasn't going anywhere with him as they have holes to fill so I think it may work out well for the long run if they capitalize on these draft picks.

Seems like appropriate value. Imagine there will be a Rodgers like extension coming in with it as well. Broncos still have plenty of weapons on offense and have a 2nd and 2 3rds left this year. Being without a 1st and 2nd next year is rough though.

More or less comes down to the fact if you don't have a very good QB then your season is essentially over before the season even begins. They now have a shot.

Russ was great just in 2020. I think Denver wins this trade comfortably

It's all gonna depend on which Wilson they get. The one that played last year had a noticeable drop off. If that's an indication of a trend then they may be digging a big hole. I think Seattle noticed the drop off too. And those draft picks are valuable.

Depends on how well Wilson plays and what Seattle does with all those juicy draft picks. Seattle knows they're in rebuild mode but they were ticketed for the mediocrity lane anyway. Much of Wilson's success at QB was predicated on his wheels, which were top notch. Once that goes...

First half of 2020 he was on fire. He then went to Buffalo and his season started to go downhill. Stats look great, but he takes a ton of sacks that aren’t oline related.

In his bad year he had a 65% comp, over 4/1 TD/Int, 7.8 ypa. That would be the best season by a Broncos QB since the last good Peyton year in 2014.

 

[Alsacs]

Denver was getting a veteran QB this offseason.
Not sure I like it but they had to do it.

Wilson is a gamble. They are loaded around him.
Denver when they didn’t take a QB last draft was doing what they did.

They went 6-2 and he had 15 passing TDs after that Bills game I think. Doesn't seem that bad. The sacks are bad but sometimes you gotta live with it with a scrambling QB

 

[STEVEHOLT]

I have a big problem with Ross doing that too. He should be punished strongly also if proven.

Yeah .. proof sort of matters . I’m wondering if Flores isn’t just FOS

 

[STEVEHOLT]

The value suggests they traded for Wilson from 5 years ago . This is a rip off ..

 

[Guinness]

Over/Under on days until Pete leaves Seattle? He doesn't strike me as a rebuild kind of guy.
