I envision Tell Mucker chasing freshman around the authentic complex a Mich St saying things like

“I don’t know what you’re thinking, but I simply cannot have students roaming the halls, disrupting other classes, and giving prophecies of a great plague.”

Wait, no that would actually be funny.

Actually gents, I tell what, I think he will feel like a one-legged cat try’in to burry turd’s on a frozen pond out there in Michigan.

Rumor is Chris Harris has a Chance of being a Chief next year.

Don’t know what kind of D the Chiefs run but how do you think they would use Chris:

A) give him one side of the field and let him shut it down

B) give him a receiver and go where the receiver goes

C) the slot

D) or as a safety

What match up do you want to see Chris against our receivers (I would like to see him against Sutton)

Good luck to Chris because it looks like his days as a Bronco are done. Thanks for all the memories, Chris!

RK you might’ve opened up a can of worms that you really didn’t want to..

Here’s the case for being an Arsenal supporter:

They’re better team in North London historically its not close

They’re good but have struggled immensely compared to their history (like the broncos)

They have really great attacking options and don’t play even average defense which makes for exciting games.

And lastly they gave my favorite song to sing to a rival, Mase probably knows it if not look it up, it starts with, “what do we think of Tottenham?”

Gents,

Made it official on the Albeeno Reeno.

I posted this and missed the cutoff earlier in the week but am making sure it gets in now.

What are the chances that DNVR teams up with Alamo Draft house and Breck (especially since Break and Alamo are about 30 seconds from one another) to do a special screening of Deadtones exclusively for DNVR Subscribers all hosted by…

HALL OF FAMER STEVE ATWATER!!!!

Broncos related:

I saw a 3 round mock that had us taking Fulton round 1 a WR round 2, DL & LB in round 3… no OL??? CB round 1 blows my mind, WR round 2 okay fine, DL & LB round 3 makes no sense. I guess they assume that we can prop up pillows on the OL and get better protection.

Side note,

My work does bracket tournaments on the draft every year with 1 week PTO on the line for the winner. (Most accurate picks day 1 move on to face the other 3 who had the most accurate picks, best two of day 2 move onto day 3 for the championship. No second place consolation prize. Trades and all are in play.)

Please all knowing, Andrew F***ing Mason Publish a full 7 round mock and allow me to use these as my picks! (No offense to RK or Zac and I would appreciate your input but there is a reason its called getting “MASED” just ask Fangio.

Thanks!

‘Sup DNVR!

I want your opinion on my one and only Broncos Jersey. I have a #52 Wesley Woodyard jersey. I get a lot of comments at games that say “Huh, haven’t seen one of those”.

I really like Woodyard when he was on the team, especially when he won the Walter Payton Man of the Year Award. And I like to think it’s an edgy jersey to own.

But now that I am looking back on his Broncos career, he really wasn’t all that amazing. That, and that the jersey was a gift from a gf who cheated on me. Is it time to donate and get myself a new jersey? Give it to me straight, I can handle it!

P.S A couple years ago I wanted to buy a Bolles jersey since I played LT in high school. PHEW! So glad I dodged that bullet there. I have nightmares about wearing his jersey at Mile High, Bolles commits a holding penalty, the whole crows boos, and everyone sitting around me questions what type of person I am! Shudder…

PEACE!

Hey guys, I was thinking of a way to get down our number of pics since 12 is a lot of rookies to make the team and i was wondering if you guys would like the following scenario.
basically we get leveon bell and stefon diggs for a combined 3.77, 3.83, 4.127 and a fourth next year. How would you guys fee about this? that leaves us with 9 picks this year after comps and elway can package a few day3 picks to recoup one of our 3rds. Not quite sure how realistic this is from a value standpoint but what do we think?

RK, Zac & Mase,
As always, you’re the best at what you do.
Draft-related question: who do you see as a comp for Christian McCaffrey this year? Someone with his versatility, reliability, power and athleticism that’s a dual threat would be a personal target. Could Laviska Shenault be the WR version of what McCaffrey is? If so, he’d be worth the 15th pick overall, IMO.
Keep on keeping it real for Broncos Country, brothers.
Thanks for your hard work and your time making the off-season bearable. You 3, Andre and Henry are the free-agency and draft talk I.V. I need to make it through the desert until the draft at the end of April.
And, as always, the NE Patriots suck!! (because I’m stuck in New England, and Patriots fans are ALL Massholes!)

Ed Mcaffrey , Rod Smith , Brandon Marshall , Brandon Lloyd ,Eddie Royal , Demaryius Thomas , Eric Decker and now …. Courtland Freaking Sutton ….. People talk about the steelers ability to draft wrs but ive only known great bronco’s Wrs my entire lifetime and its time to continue that tradition ….. Guys tell me if im imagining things but other then Darius Slay who manned up and shut Courtland Down all year ??? MASE !!! im sure you can pull it up how many times did Courtland come down with contested catches and how many times did he run a route that faced bracket coverage …… I think Courtland is unguardable i think he is the second coming of DeAndre Hopkins because….. I DARE ANYONE TO LIE TO ME AND TELL ME ANY WR (MICHAEL THOMAS INCLUDED ) HAD A BETTER HIGHLIGHT REAL THEN COURTLAND THIS YEAR #1. .. #2 the catch for the td over denzel ward was catch of the year only to be beaten weeks later with the one handed td while being held the whole way down …… I think Courtland drew the second most p.i. penalties in the Nfl this season im saying all this to say ….. Guys #2 wr has to be top priority over oline and corner and ilb right ??? I mean it has to be !!! …..becuase if you get Courtland outta double coverage whose gonna shut him down in the nfl let alone the afc west ???? Do u think theres a bigger priority over wr with our first pick given the potential of this offense with another weapon other then Courtland ??

My boys!

I want to thank you all for the input from my last comment. Really means a bunch for such great insight. The situation is still fluid but I’m not leaving my kids. That’s for sure.

My question. What is a job y’all have had that you absolutely hated? Probably from high school or college I’m guessing. Mine is I worked at a Blockbuster Video distribution center in college (yes I’m old). It was a conveyer belt where videos came and I had to quickly pack them in boxes in what it seemed like 100 miles per hour. I did that 12 hours a day and I left each day tired as heck.

Also. Mel Tucker. I don’t like that guy now.

Dude…. just heard a rumor that CHJ might be going to the chiefs. The freakin CHIEFS! If he goes there I’m sorry but there will be a lot of fans that are going to be pissed at him for sure. Good thing is, CHJ will be Sutton’s son for two games. Can’t wait for the draft and the offseason signings that we get. Also, very pleased that I shut down the breakfast lunch dinner debate with the chicken and waffles ?? Have a good rest of your week boys and as always go Broncos!!!

Fellas I have a situation I’ve been thinking about that is giving me nightmares. Imagine a scenario where the chargers trade for Matthew Stafford and raiders sign Famous Jameis (post lasik). 6 games a year against Jameis, Stafford, and Mahomes. I am dreading the thought and I don’t think it’s too far fetched. Also one more question. A different podcast I listen to called Dirty Sports (highly recommend if you don’t mind nsfw language) that highlights people that wear the jersey of a team that isn’t playing to a sporting event. For example, wearing a cowboys jersey to a Broncos-raiders game or even worse, the Pat’s fan wearing a Brady Jersey to the chiefs parade. They call them cheddar dicks lol. While watching the nuggets game tonight I saw something that I thought is in a similar vein. Is it just me or is it super strange to wear a basketball Jersey over a button up dress shirt? You gotta either go just Jersey or just dress shirt. Jersey over dress shirt is just wack in my opinion. Anxious to hear your guys opinion, maybe I’m just being too critical.

Appreciate your time and dedication guys! You guys keep me going during the off season

Comment for Albeeno Reeno…

In English, the proper stuff, not this American thing you guys have created, we pronounce Albino as ‘Albeeno’ anyway, so it always read correctly to me 😀

Shouldn’t we get Congress to change the official language of the US to ‘American’? I must say, I am shocked you guys haven’t done this already. What are your thoughts on this fellas?

just me spitballing here;

very likely that stefon diggs will be available this offseason. vikes probably want a 1 or a 2, but considering the deep receiver class, his contract (which is below market value but still not a cheap player) and some potential locker room problems, then it’s just not realistic.

how about we throw in the 3rd and 4th we got from the sanders trade and then add daesean. vikes will need to add depth at receiver- specifically slot receiver- and daesean was drafted in 2018 when kubes had a ‘front office’ role with the broncos, so there’s some familiarity there with the minnesota coaching staff.

daesean just spent the season in a similar offense to what kubes is running, so there won’t be a steep learning curve. and he’s one of the better run blocking receivers and we know how much they intend to run the ball there.

what do y’all think?

Oh, and after re-reading, that appears a little salty. I did mean it to sound tongue-in-cheek, but a little hard to come across as that in pure text format.

I comment enough about totally random crap, so have no grounds to mock others’ comments.

Hometown week baby!!! Looks like it’s gonna be a doozy.

Very serious debate went on last night between badone88 and I in regards to flying. While I know seats are given the feature to recline do you recline them? From my perspective it literally doesn’t give you that much Extra room and it makes the life awful for the person behind you. I’m so tall I already barely fit in seats so when somebody reclines my knee gets stuck in the back of their seat.

Second question: is there such a thing as unassigned assigned seats?

Interesting conversation about choosing an English Premier League team to follow. Ryan, if you want a team with a bird connection you have 3 choices. Norwich City – the Canaries – they are at the foot of the table and will be relegated. Crystal Palace – the Eagles – they are nothing more than average and can tend to be a yo-yo team. Your best bet is Tottenham Hotspur (Spurs) whose emblem is a proud cockerel (rooster). This is the team that nearly won the Champions League last year, has played in Europe for several consecutive seasons, and owns the new stadium where NFL games are being played – one of the best new stadiums in the world. Also the probable venue of a possible Broncos-Falcons game. Whatever you do, please do not choose Arsenal, Spurs’ bitter North London rivals.

Hey all, I definitely believe that Fangio will have the success this year necessary to stay and continue to lead this team. I was having a discussion with a friend about the broncos off-season and he believed that Denver going for offensive talent in the draft and defense in mostly FA was a mistake! He said going that young with the offense is extremely dangerous and it would be better to invest in veteran offensive playmakers and stock the defensive side with young talent. Thoughts? Also it was real cool hearing about how y’all got started, as a former aspiring sports journalist who was in a similar position to Zac and RK, it’s cool hearing that y’all were able to make it!

Guys imagine if the NFL and XFL could work out some sort of partnership where they functioned similarly to the EPL where the bottom 4 NFL teams are relegated to the XFL and top 4 XFL teams are promoted to the NFL in those places. They would need to figure out how to slot the promoted teams into the divisions of those relegated teams but man that would keep things competitive and help prevent teams from tanking for top player in the draft. I dont see this ever happening due to the owners and big Vince M.

Mornin’ Boys,

I’ve heard talk that Phillip Lindsay might be training with Christian McCaffrey this off-season in order to improve his catching ability.

In year one it seems like Lindsay was just fine at catching passes. Do you think Flacco’s dreadful play was mostly to blame for the lack of proficiency last season? It seems like Phil may be concerned about his roll in Shurmur’s offense. Also, In this offense are we looking to shear up pass protection or improve the run game more with a more athletic lineman? I feel like Wr and OT are inevitable in this draft.

Lastly do you guys know when you’ll be getting the Phillip Lindsay T-shirts back in size medium? (If you can’t tell he’s my favorite Bronco)

What is this that I’m hearing about Chris Harris retweeting a video of which had him going to the Chiefs? I’m done. That was the final straw for me. Just retweeting something regarding the Chiefs In that aspect is disrespect in it’s self and a total slap in the face imo. The dude basically robbed the Broncos of an extra $3 million last year and then went on to have the worst season of his career? If he doesn’t have pride and passion for the orange and blue anymore I don’t even want him in that locker room. You would think that he would want to be a part of bringing the team that gave him a chance in this league back to relevance. But for him to do this right as we are on the brink of blowing up the league? Yeah we don’t need players like that. I want players who want to be Broncos and look forward to the challenge. I want winners not cowards. Instead he’s taking the KD route…how does the saying go? if you can’t beat em then go be one of them right? Isn’t that how the sports world seems to be working nowadays? Just take the easy way out right? What a chump he’s turned out to be. I CAN’T WAIT(Bart Scott voice) to watch him get juked out by Jeudy(yes I’m hoping he falls or we trade up) & mossed by Sutton twice a year! Block his number Elway! Let him go to KC. IDC. Let this rivalry get revved up to a another level! LET’S F-ING GO!

While were on the subject of active players jerseys, I’d like to share my story of how I learned the hard way that Mase is right on active players and how I am more or less a Denver Curse…

07: My Champ jersey is pretty worn out. Jay Cutler is the future! I want to get his Jersey. (Traded)

08: Okay well Brandon Marshall is my favorite Bronco, I’ll get his Jersey! (Traded)

09: Peyton Hillis is a machine! Cant miss with this one! (Traded)

10: Oh man Tebow! Definitely gotta get that! (Traded)

11: I really like Eddie Royal! I’ll get his Jersey! (Leaves via FA)

12: I’ll get an Dumervil Jersey! (Released due to agent incompetence)

13: I’LL JUST BUY A BUNCH OF JERSEYS FROM THIS CHINA WEBSITE! ONE OF THEM IS BOUND TO HIT!

W.Woodyard (Leaves via FA)
D. Thomas (Hit)

I have some real agita (aj-i-tuh) today fellas with hearing that Chris Harris is rumored to be going to the Chiefs?! W.t.f is up with that!? Is this real or a game to try to con the Broncos in ponying up more money? Bring on Bryon Jones or Logan Ryan!

With Laviska’s new diagnoses, osteitis pubis (inflammation of the pubic bone) does this concern you guys? Maybe he can drop even more in the draft? Im not a doctor, just a LMT (licensed massage therapist) but it does seem like something that is manageable with the proper self care.

Do you think that we can trade some of our draft capital to try and acquire Stefon Diggs? Maybe for a 2nd round pick? Then try to combine some later picks to move back up? I know his “diva” personality is a concern, but when he was with Shurmur I don’t remember it being much of an issue. Being 26 and under contract for 4 more years this would give the broncos a win now option, instant depth, and time to be able to develop a young receiver from this draft. Just a thought?

Saw some headlines about Lions looking to trade Matt Stafford

a) Would you take a straight up Matt Stafford – Drew Lock swap

b) If you answered yes to a), what’s the most you would give up for Stafford? Von Miller and a first? Lock and a first?

I personally think Stafford would be good enough to realistically win a superbowl with the Broncos, but I think I’d gamble on Lock for the potential to be a perennial contender

Hey guys,

I was excited to here you might be picking an EPL team to support! Ryan, it was cool to hear you talk about liking Sunderland. One of my earliest memories was when Niall Quinn who was Ireland’s all-time leading scorer drove me to get McDonalds because he thought I looked bored sitting in on one of my dad’s business meetings. Unfortunately, Sunderland isn’t in the Premier League but I do have a team that I feel is an obvious and easy choice: Everton

1. Everton is the biggest and best team you can chose without being a bandwagon fan.

2. 50% of the club was recently sold to a mega billionaire and they hired a very prominent coach in January so you’d be coming in just as Everton looks ready to explode.

3. Zac already owns an Everton jersey with his name on it.

4.Everton has the strongest ties to American players of any EPL Team. Tim Howard, Landon Donovan, Brian Mcbride, and Joe-Max Moore were all Blues. On my last day working for Everton, Tim actually sent me a signed shirt.

5. Because of this American connection fan clubs can be found everywhere including Denver and Fort Collins so if you like watching games at a pub with a big group of fans Everton is ideal. They also sit together in a section at Rapids games.

6. Everton has the best atmosphere of any team in England. They don’t get overrun by tourists like Liverpool whose stadium is 300 yards away. The Everton fan songs are so good that other fanbases routinely steal or adopt them.

7. They play in a stadium from the 1800s that has so much history it makes Wrigley Field feel like Tropicana. It was actually the first purpose-built football stadium for any professional soccer team. It also has the best views of any stadium. The second tier of the Bullens Road Stand actually extends over the lower tier all the way to the edge of the field and is so steep that you feel like you’re on top of the action watching down on it like a god (credit to Depression-era construction regulations— you can sit in normal seats too). If you watch the movie Creed you can get a sense of this amazing atmosphere.

8.Their list of “celebrity” fans includes Sylvestre Stallone and former Broncos fullback Jacob Hester

9. Nine is for Dixie Dean who scored 60 goals in 1927

10. Everton run one of the largest independent charities in professional sports that provides supports for thousands of veterans, disadvantaged youths, and disabled people within the community.

If you end up going to England for the Broncos I can probably arrange for you to get tickets and maybe even a player interview if you were interested. (Everton was the first pro soccer team to have a podcast)

Landon Donovan on Everton: “I’m 28 years old now and I’ve played over 100 times for my country, I’ve also played a lot of league games in different parts of the world. But I’ve never met a fan-base like this… They’ve been absolutely incredible and it’s hard to imagine that they can be that passionate every time you go out but they care. Forget about football for a moment, this is a life experience I’ll never forget”.
