Obviously we had a thorough organizational shake up so I'm honestly thinking there's a plan and none of us have a clue what's going on. They kept EVERYTHING tight lipped during the coaching search so this seems like something along that same route. Those are my hopes at least. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ballard is backed into a corner, so he is doing what he once feared, drafting a QB in hopes of getting the guy. He knows this potentially will be his last shot at a long term QB, and yet no panic. It’s pretty impressive honestly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's still doing FA IMO, and I think the only input Steichen has had is that he's ok with any QB, but they have them ranked in some order, which is why we are still at 4. Things are still the same as ever except Ballard is forced to hit on a QB in the draft rather than FA this time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's true, it should have happened before FA started. This is literally the only reason why we haven't released him yet, and I doubt anyone is going to bite. If we release him on the 17th (the deadline), it's going to screw over our FA. I'm tired of dealing with this every year with Ballard in FA. Im tired of it too. I’d love to know what the reason is. But that doesn’t mean there isn’t a good and valid reason. If there was no reason, I’m confident both Steichen and Irsay would tell him to get it done ASAP! Again, there IS a reason…. Even if none of us here understands it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to make light of the situation because I have no idea what this team is doing as in making Homer Gif's and just trying to block things out that make me annoyed. I hope we have a plan and make some good choices. It is what it is, I will always be a fan of the team though. Have been since 1984. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is Jeudy a free agent? Nope, he's under contract for one more year, plus the possible 5th year option. The Broncos have the Penners as owners (they own Wal-Mart) and they are guaranteeing money in these contracts up front. Sean Payton as the HC also helps. So they have $5-$6 million left in cap space if I've counted right. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Relying on a rookie is risky. Relying on a rookie when you are being passive and on the hot seat is crazy. Does he really think a rookie at 4 is going to save his job when he isn't even giving this kid a proper team to play with? Only the owner needs to believe in the current plan. He wouldn't be here if he is crazy! So... Just wondering, do you know if Ryan still wants to play, and if he does what might the financial circumstances be? We could pay half his salary and the new team pay the other half. What would that mean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ballard goes to Irsay and says there are no QBs he trusts and Jalen Carter is the only game wrecker left in the draft. Ballard can say he got perhaps the best player in the draft AND puts off the QB risk we all know he is scared to take for another year. It’s not beyond the realm and I think Ballard would love this scenario. His ego will not allow him to change strategies because he’d have to admit he was wrong.
