Branden Albert was proved unreliable, and in a terrible year to be picking 1 overall, the Fisher pick is not looking as bad as the chicken littles made it out to be.
I like our GM fine. You'll see how good Elway/Kubiak are without the Manning farewell nod this year. Better hope Wade Phillips has all his defensive toys to play with, because that offense will be ASS.

Um....may want to check the record there.
Dorsey got lucky - the end. Bowe's 2016 salary was guaranteed unless he got suspended. Then he got suspended. Had Bowe simply continued to be a bad football player, we'd have been stuck with him on the cap last year and wouldn't have had J-Mac.
You're right that Dorsey had very little choice but to keep Bowe around given the dearth of talent he inherited from that fat ****ing fraud before him, but he absolutely lucked out when Bowe smoked his way into a suspension.
