Phil The Thrill Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 A journalist in Denver put this tweet out the other day asking fans whether they would still draft Bradley Chubb over Josh Allen in the 2018 draft. As you can imagine this trigger a lot of responses. For the most part it was mixed but overall a lot of fans actually said that they would take Josh Allen over Bradley Chubb. Of course, you get the usually Twitter crowd trying to quantify why he Allen isn’t good. Overall a lot of them seem to be down on Chubb and are concerned about the QB position. One fan called Chubb “an OLB with a bum knee” ? Id say it’s about 60-40 Allen over Chubb based on those responses 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zow2 Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 It's always a popular mid-week topic to bring up in many NFL cities.. "would you rather have xxxxx, or the good young QB your team passed on?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atlbillsfan1975 Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 (edited) Chubb is injures on your team that is 3-7 and your quarterback situation is less than ideal. You are now playing the team that is 7-3 with the quarterback you could if picked. Probably only natural for some Denver fans to wish they had picked Allen to go with their defense. Elway has been better at finding defensive talent than he has quarterbacks. I do think Chubb is a good player and should have a great career ahead of him.

JoshAllenHasBigHands Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 I understand the differing opinions. But someone over there is suggesting that Lock's floor is what Allen is playing at now, and that Locke is likely to be much better than Allen. I don't even know what to do with that comment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course it helps when you are picking very high in the draft and players like Von Miller & Bradley Chubb are right there for you to grab. That makes Elway more lucky than savvy. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsVet Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 The more important question needs to be which GM that franchise would rather have. Elway isn't getting it done and his QB decisions post P. Manning are the lead reason why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you can pay Case Keenum 20 Million, you have to pass on Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen, so you can trade for Joe Flacco and draft Drew Lock 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whatdrought Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 I mean, it seems pretty obvious. Promising young QB is always worth more than Promising young pass rusher. Even if Allen is only ever a good not great QB, and Chubb is a HOF, for as long as they don't have a QB, they will be wishing they did. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flip Johnson Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 It is amazing that Elway didn't get in on the 2018 draft class - whether it was JA or anyone else. They were sitting right there with obvious need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheElectricCompany Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 Broncos fan are such chronic whiners. You'd think the team has been trash for decades. Chubb was an excellent LB last year, how could you not be happy with 12 sacks as a rookie? His injury does suck, hope he comes back to form next year.

Hmmm, square glasses, kind of a long bowl cut to go with them? I can get onboard for that. But personally, I had him tagged as more of a Taki's kind of guy, spicy but still really gross.

Utah John Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 Elway's quest for a new franchise QB seems like something out of Greek mythology. Some of the players he's obtained were pretty decent, but Elway doesn't seem able to surround them with a good line AND good RBs AND good receivers. Great QBs can overcome limitations of their teammates, but it takes time for QBs to get the experience they need to become great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
