ESPN: Broncos leaning toward 2015 7th round pick starting over Lynch and Sanchez

[Reality]

As I pointed out during the draft, we may end up getting lucky by not drafting Lynch.

A 7th rounder for the SB champs?? Wow season over....

Doesnt surprise me. I dont think they are in a rush to start Lynch. I think they had every intention of redshirt

yeah, telling you're defending champion players you're starting a raw rookie at QB probably wouldn't go over really well. Telling those same guys you're starting Sanchez would probably suck too. lol

Well telling them a 2nd year 7th round pick is starting cant be too encouraging either lol

I've heard several players saying they actually like that guy but yeah, how do you get in this situation?

Manning retires.

I've heard Lynch has actually been pretty impressive in Broncos camp, though, and it's a matter of time before he becomes the starter.

Amusing that Sanchez is going to be out on the street again, though.

By alienating the guy you groomed for 4 years

If Siemian really struggles I can see them pulling the plug and going with Lynch

I havent seen Lynch much in preseason, but I have noticed he seems to be taking an alarming amout of sacks. Haven't seen enough to know if its poor protection or a lack of pocket awareness but it is concerning

I have no problem with this and it is likely the correct approach

Sitting out even 6-8 games is very likely to help Lynch tremendously

I wish Dak did not have to start and could sit at least this year

 

[haleyrules]

Denvers defense had better be just as good this year. Yes..Prescott needs more time.

 

[DFWJC]

I read today that they declared him the starter

That's the worst part about this, is that we don't get to sit Dak for a season or more. I was hoping we'd get a clean year out of Tony and then have Dak ready to go in whenever an injury happened in 2017. I'd have felt a lot better about that for both guys.
