If You Had The Choice....?

Denver is without a doubt the most attractive job opening.

Franchise QB- Check
Offensive Line - Check
WR's - Check
RB's - Check

All Denver needs is a MLB, Safety, and a stud DE and they are contenders. Then take into account who the owner is in Denver and it makes it an even easier decision.

I picked Denver too, but I don't think having 8 rb's in a year means you have anybody who is reliable.

Denver or Cleveland, as they have a franchise QB in place.

Yes but if you were in KC you could pick your own QB and to me that would be fun.
To me I am not sure what is in cleveland or denver is better than what is out there in this year's draft. I would take my chances armed with the 3rd pick
that I could get a qb to compete with either of those teams because in KC you would have the time to do it . I think as a coach you would have more time to get it done in KC than other places.

I'll gladly take what Jay Cutler has shown in 2 years than take a huge risk with a college player.

That's like telling the dealer in your poker game that you want to give back your pocket kings, and will take your chances on the next two cards in the deck.

It is not a knock on cutler I just think this may be a good year for qb's.
I think there are more than 1 qb coming out this year that COULD be great.
Last year I would have taken cutler vs the field.
This years best qb's are so young you just don't know how good they can get so it's a tough call.

If the head coach keeps Dennison (O-line coach) and Bobby Turner (RB's coach) we should be fine at RB. If we keep them we can still keep drafting late round RB's and be just fine because of the coaching and the scheme.

Neither of those guys are Alex Gibbs, as this year demonstrated pretty emphatically.

In any event "RB's check" rings pretty hollow.

How so? Peyton Hillis, Ryan Torrain, Selvin Young, PJ Pope, and Tatum Bell each averaged over 5 Yards per carry this year. 5 no names doing that is pretty impressive.

We haven't had Alex Gibbs for a while and we still are consistently in the top 5 in yards per carry and top 10 in rushing yards. The RB's got hurt, that wasn't Dennison's or Bobby Turner's fault. Turner has been here since Terrell Davis he is the best in the business for coaching RB's in our scheme.

I'm sorry who's your running back again? 10 guys? You going to pay all of those guys like >5.0 ypc guys? You may need to cut your real talent to do that.

We don't shell out big bucks for RB's. Clinton Portis wanted big money and he was traded. That is how it goes in Denver... RB's are expendable. As long as they show they can make one cut and hit the hole in college, they will succeed here in Denver.
