    Woody Paige is the bane of my existence.

  • http://birty.blogspot.com mikebirty

    that interview is why champ is still a bronco and hasn’t been traded as was discussed on the other blog. You gotta love him haven’t you?

  • NathanH

    Everyone needs to read that Champ interview.

    East, I actually ran into Woody when I was having lunch with my wife in downtown Denver a couple years back. He had just finished doing a story and I snagged him for a minute to talk. I was frank with him about what I thought of his antics and writing especially when it came down to his front page prediction of Denver losing the 98 AFC Championship. To my surprise he was really down to earth and explained why he carries on the way he does. I gained a lot of respect for him, and learned to enjoy his articles with a heaping pile of salt.

  • Jaiu

    So, slipping on a McDonald’s wrapper bugs the hell outta Cu*tler, but shooting yerself in the leg and missing the rest of the season is a-ok in his book? What a knob.

    ALL HAIL NECKBEARD! (Or Spleenless, or draft pick, or…)

  • milehighs

    woody page is right!

  • jcampb72

    We better draft well, otherwise we are truely set back years. Kipers got us taking Jackson, Brown, Brace. I like it but wouldn’t you think it would be Brown, Jackson, Brace? I guess he’s not very high on Ev B. Wonder why? But Kiper looks like a pedophile so I really can’t take him serious.

  • jcampb72

    East, Why hate on Woody? He’s the only sports writer in denver with a sense of humor and reality.

  • milehighs

    How strong is Mark Sanchize are any ways .why is eveyone on his band wagon.hes to short and his socks are to loose.

  • Anthony

    I wish every football player had the mindsight of Champ Bailey, who to me is still the best corner in the NFL bar none. Big deal that he had an off year last year are you guys kidding we have the worst defense in the NFL what would it be without Champ Bailey? The guy is loyal and understands that this is a business and doesn’t hold grudges. If by some reason we released Champ and Washington wanted him, do you think he’s going to be a pus*y like jay Cutler and hold a grudge and act like a clown, no damn way. Champ could have thrown Dan Snyder under the bus, but he has a brain, unlike our old quarterback who’s feelings we’re hurt. You can instantly see that McDaniels message is getting through in the locker room about the concept of a team first mentality as Champ expresses. I don’t defend McDaniels for what he did and I still would rather have Jay but if the new leader of the team, Champ Bailey, is expressing the same message that his coach is teaching then to me that is a great sign. Agree or Disagree? Champ is pure class and I thank God that he is a Denver Bronco.

  • milehighs

    How strong is Mark Sanchez arm?

  • Anthony

    Why is milehighs allowed to post on this site? At least make 1 positive comment for the 10 negative comments that you make about our team.

  • kerry

    who cares about Mark Sanchez and his arm. he isnt gonna be a Bronco anyway.

  • kerry

    Mike Mayock is a schmuck anyway. he also Said Alex Smith was gonna be a great QB for the 49ers. yeah how did that turn out? Mayock is stupid. Denver does NOT have to draft a first round QB. although some just insist we have to waste a first round pick on one.

  • http://BroncoTalk.net Mr.East

    I agree Kerry,

    I do think Sanchez is a very intelligent QB who has a coin flip of success in the NFL. But Denver would have to be a bunch of r-tards to pick him.

  • CJ

    Mike Mayock also said Jay Cutler was going to be better than matt lienert and Vince Young

    Ive always thought Mayock was an expert and if he says sanchez is it i believe him even if i didnt agree before so now i am officially a mark sanchez fan.

  • milehighs

    mike mayock is the man with the plan.broncos trade up 1rst,and second round pick.they get thier qb 8th pick i the first round.

  • broncoNM

    Kerry is right on about mayock…the only guy that makes mike mayock look good is bill williamson… Mayock is wrong more than he is right…Sure he was right about Cutler but even a blind squirrel finds a nut every once in awhile… Guys like mayock and kiper have to create a buzz around the draft because thats their job…they are trying to create a sexy scenario by saying the broncos will trade up and snag sanchez right before the jags or niners get him…its boring to just say that the broncos stay put at 12 and grab a DE. I honestly cannot think of a WORSE move than us trading up to get sanchez….seriously that would be the worst move possible.

  • http://bungie.net BroncoLover4Life

    i think orton can do the job here. drafting a qb would be like burning two picks and a lot of money….

    wait till next year when a good qb class is out. none of the qb’s in this draft impress me

    they all throw like women

  • BroncoinVA9986

    the draft is a very big crapshoot all of these players have what it takes to be great at the next level it all comes down to coaching…Good coaching can make a player either a boom or a bust…some suck though don’t get me wrong

  • CJ

    Hey face it kyle orton isnt the guy of the future. If you want a peyton manning go out and get him. Its a risk…. but if it works it will have been more than worth it. We took a chance with cutler and we might take a chance with sanchez. No matter how much we bitch josh mcdanials is clearly in charge and if he wants a qb to grow then he will.

  • http://broncotalk.net Joe

    I would like the draft to be: Bj Raji, Tyson Jackson, Ron Brace, a safety, a corner, than after that, just people for depth. If we get those first three I listed though, our D-Line will be very much improved. In our 3-4 scheme, it could be Marcus thomas on one DE, Bj Raji in the middle, than Tyson Jackson as the other DE. In the 4-3, it would be Doom, Thomas, Raji, than Tyson. Than Brace could be a rotational person for DT. It would keep our D-Line energized the entire game.

  • http://ttmt.com T-Money

    You guys are funny to read.

    I’m with Joe… and Woody.

  • MIAbronco

    please god read this old article from sports illustrated about the rise of Ed McCaffrey, it really makes me miss him, and I did’nt know he was such a cut-up.

  • CJ

    Everybody has to go to this link it is hilarious

  • kerry

    CJ:

    seriously there isnt a Peyton Manning in this draft class of QB’s. not even close. and of course Mayock said Cutler would be better then Leinart and Young. thats the most obvious analysis. thats like saying Elway is better then Mike Vick. its no comparison. lol

    Sanchez maybe “Smart” but Orton is actually a winner in the NFL. it will take a couple years for Sanchez to develope. but Orton can be good now WITHOUT giving up a first rounder. and we can draft Rhett Bomar, who by the way if he had stayed at Oklahoma would be the best QB in this class BY FAR!

  • CJ

    True true but do you think everybody thought peyton manning was gonna be the one you cant tell me right now 100% that any of these qbs wont be in the hall of fame. i agree we should draft all defense but i wouldnt be surprised to see josh draft qb first

  • kerry

    Mr East:

    yeah picking Sanchez would be stupid as hell. but McDaniels has been known to make a dumb decision when it comes to QB’s. im still saying Tyson Jackson at 12, then Ron Brace at 18. yes its a reach but there isnt any other NT after Ron Brace so we may have to get him when we can. then i like Connor Barwin at our 48 pick.

    oh and watching Carlos Mencia getting beat to death with baseball bats was so awesome! lol

    “oh man i steal jokes and repeat them with a mexican accent. do you know what its like to be a comedian and not be funny man? my dick dont work, i have to piss in a plastic bag, i have no dick come on man.” lol -Carlos Mencia shortly before getting killed by Kanye West for those who dont know or live under a rock.

  • kerry

    CJ:

    yeah actually everybody said Manning would become a Hall of famer coming out of College due to talent and pedigree. and what does the hall of fame have to do with it? there isnt anything that says we have to draft a QB in the first round let alone him being a hall of famer or not.

  • MIAbronco

    i wouldnt be suprised if we draft red grange, hes been tearing it up at Illinois.

    I’m late aren’t I? I hate when i do this

  • Roy

    Why in the Hell is there even a discussion about a QB in the first round? If the coaches did not think they could win with Orton, they would have asked for someone else in the trade. Or they would have traded with another team that had a player of interest. The simple fact is that McD thinks he can win with the qb’s he got and will build a defense with this draft.

  • MIAbronco

    how pissed is everybody gonna be when he drafts freeman with the 18th pick. oh man. as soon as it happens i’m going to get on broncotalk as fast as i can to here all the moaning and bitching. from what I can remember, all my bronco friends and I were very upset when the broncos drafted jay cutler because we had just been to the afc championship and figured j plum (when i say that i feel like a 40 year old trying to sound cool) was the man, apparently thats not how shannahan was gettin’ down. And we see how that worked out for us, i trust in Mcd, not to mention, if you look back at some of our defensive flops, I believe it was moreover the fact that they were not developed correctly and were miss judged and underevaluated by the old regime, BUT NO MORE BRONCO FANS, mcd will make sure of it that he hits on all of his picks.

  • MIAbronco

    *hear

  • robtink242

    hey kerry are there any other QB’s we can get in the lare rounds cause it hard to find good highlights on Rhrett Bomar

  • robtink242

    later rounds* no good highlights at all on Rhett Bomar

  • kerry

    Miabronco:

    uh you remember who was making those defensive draft bust picks? it wasnt anyone on this staff that is here now. so going on about bad defensive picks means nothing because Shanahan isnt here anymore. but its funny that you say “look at our defensive flops” to justify a QB being taken when we dont need one. lol. thats funny.

  • MIAbronco

    is the readers number in the top right the number of people on the website right now? just curious, because if it is, there should be like 150 comments per post.

  • MIAbronco

    Kerry,

    i just want to mke bronco fans laugh, because i have noticed alot of hostility lately on broncotalk. i suggest we all listen to the 5th dimension or maybe some steely dan to lighten the mood.

  • kerry

    Robtink242:

    there isnt anything good on Rhett Bomar because he played for Sam Houston state after being dismissed from Oklahoma for accepting no show jobs from boosters. but if you are able to find footage of his first year he showed great arm strength and accuracy and mobility. he was a projected future top pick had he stayed at Oklahoma. but another QB that i have my eye on in the fourth round is John Parker Wilson. a battle tested SEC QB from Alabama. last time we had one of those he threw for 4,500 yards and 25 TD’s. Parker Wilson has the arm and accuracy. footwork needs some work though in terms of pocket Presence but he played well last year and led alabama to the Sugar Bowl at which point they were smoked by Utah. lol. look for Rhett Bomar or John Parker Wilson. im saying the 4th round is where we get a QB. definatly not in the first round. we dont need a 1st round QB. but we do need a guy to groom and that can be Wilson or Bomar

  • MIAbronco

    kerry,
    ‘I’ believe theres no way that denver drafts a QB on day one, but stranger things have happened, like an injury plagued, under-weighted jarvis moss being a first round pick.(now hopefully by saying this i eat my words and he gets 15 sacks this year, oh dang it, he’s still 195 lbs) :(

  • robtink242

    MIAbronco

    I really want us to draft Freeman but if not I dont want Rhett Bomar under center at anytime in a bronco uni. this guy looks like hes attracted to big shots and scared of the long horns. if not Freeman we have to get a QB next year only makes sense.

  • kerry

    Miabronco:

    i like Steely Dan. but if i want music, Metallica are my boys. ive seen them 11 times in concert.

  • MIAbronco

    I just got their semi-new death magnetic cd, but nothing compares to the old master of puppets cd. the only song i ever workout to is the instrumental Orion from that cd.

  • kerry

    oh yeah old school Metallica is the greatest metal ever. but the new death Magnetic is actually the best since Reload. Garage days inc and St Anger sucked huge balls.
