Elway is living off of Manning the pieces that were there before he showed up, along with luck of drafting a generational pass rusher.

Pioli would have drafted Marcell Dareus. A lot of people ripped the Von Miller pick because "he doesn't fit the 4-3" and "the Broncos needed a DT"
And as far as impact players, not everyone explodes into the league like Von. Elway has only had two draft classes and Orlando Franklin, Rahim Moore and Derek Wolfe have been early contributors and guys like Julius Thomas and Ronnie Hillman have been having great camps. And if Elway hits on Brock, it's game over for the AFCW for the foreseeable future.
