Should Denver Trade for Dak - Denver Post

[DuncanIso]

Translation: Denver has nothing to trade because they wasted on a washed up Wilson.

They can pickup Daks 2024 base salary.

It saves us from cutting him.

The dead cap hit is the same.

who said he was the answer, but I know you loverboy isn't the answer. That loser should have been gone years ago........Let me guess you were on of the ones who celebrated when Rush finally lost.

As much as I celebrated Dak crapping the bed. When bad QBs have bad games you expect it.

Please Denver, please he is all yours.

I am not big fan of Dak from the day we drafted him but our issue is deeper than just Dak.It is the 2 idiots on top who created this loser culture.

But Dak is on the cusp of something great according to Jerry so we have to patiently anticipate the breakthrough and like it.

I agree.

Correct. Any trade would involve the other team working out a new contract with Dak anyway most likely.

Take this to the Trade Zone or NFL zone...how many Dak posts can you create in two days? My goodness.....

Dak all day, every day. MVP!

We just came off a horrendously embarrassing loss....how is this hurting you? People want to vent....give it a few days before worrying about clutter. People have varied opinions and angles on Dork and the Conman....sometimes it takes a separate thread, and is actually helpful and expedient when reading.

The "stans" never said that. If anything we said we had no running game. Or that Steele sucks. But has no help is a stretch. But I know on this site if one person says something he speaks for all lol.

or he only performs well in garbage time or against horrific defenses. Or he acts as if the zone defense never existed and has no idea how to read it. Or that he sleeps on a sleep number mattress.

Give us a first and he's yours. I don't know if they have it first because they gave up like five firsts and 3 seconds for wilson.

What team would be stupid enough to give away a 1st rounder for Dak, unless they’re goal is to be mediocre?

 

[BoysForLife]

Even their tired trope about leadership is out the window,

And it's about time. Total facade, from day 1.



crap like this is what they based that ridiculous "leadership" and "chemistry" narrative off of. "Dak captured the locker room, everyone just totally was all in on Dak, new spirit, etc"

Took 8 years for many to see that was a complete fallacy also.

The smartest post you've made in 2 years.

Lol. We'll get 'em next year. With a deep 4 hour playoff run.

I gotta admit, this was good.

Nice. You got anymore smoke for Dak lol? You starting to heat up.

Second best post lol.

Not sure that Denver would be a great fit for Dak. The narrative seemed to be that Payton didn't love Wilson because he was a guy who doesn't progress through his reads well. Dak is that same sort of player who bails after his first read and turns it into backyard football. Not saying that as a knock either, several QBs have been very successful that way, but Payton seems to want a classic pocket passer.

I’m posting this article as it gives a sense of what others think of Dak and how it reflects what the majority of the board now think of Dak and also has some interesting tidbits I quote below.

I live in Denver and ever since Dak's impending free agency back in 2021 the local sports scene has actively floated going after him.

He would probably be a marginal upgrade over what Denver has in Russel Wilson at the moment, but probably not worth the draft capital it would cost to go get him.

I think they just don't like Russ because he didn't play bad this year. Russ is tough to like honestly. It was ok to put up with when you had the legion of boom.
