Anthems and Protests ---
While we certainly understand the frustration by fans on all sides of the discussion, we have decided to keep the Broncos Country message boards separate from politics. Recent events have brought the NFL to the forefront of political debates, but due to the highly emotional and passionate discussion it tends to involve, we think it’s best to continue to keep politics and this forum separate. Yes, the forum is meant for discussion, but we’d like to keep that discussion to football as much as possible.
With everything going on in our country, it would be nice to keep our complaints and cheers purely related to football here. If you feel passionately, there are plenty of other outlets available to you to express your opinions. We know this isn’t the most popular decision, but we ask that you respect it.
Thank you for understanding.

I don't like Tebow and we gave up waaaaay too many picks for a third/fourth QB.
he's our future ! so deal with it, and we didn't give up 'waaaaay' to much for him, we basically just moved up from one of our 2nd's and included a 3rd and 4th
Tebow is basically made of pure awesome, Thomas was a beast in a run-heavy offense that barely ever threw the ball (and he blocks better than some TEs lol).
I love it, we needed a WR and we got one of the top 2 in the draft.. Tebow is a rare talent that does not come around often. it was a bold move, but if it works out, we could be a great team for many years....
I graded it an A. I wasn't one who wanted Tebow but the more and more I think about it I like it. And he could eventually be a franchise QB. And he will be way better to the fans than the last so called franchise QB we had.
I gave it a C. We took two boom or bust picks in the 1st Round, which I don't believe you should do. A "C" grade represents that. If they boom, it could move up to an A, if they bust, an F.
im not happy with tebow pick but i have faith in McD. i hope we still get Arrelious Benn in the 2nd round and i have a gut felling that we will trade Kyle orton and let brady quinn start and let tebow develope. And in 3-4 years we will be super bowl contenders. GOD BLESS

I wont give a grade on any pick until after a couple years.
I will say this about who we took:
Shanny spent a higher pick on Ashley Lelie. What I do know about Thomas is at least he can block. At the very worse we got ourselves a legit deep threat. If he can stretch a defense like Lelie did and throw down some pancake blocks, he will give our WR core another dimension. Even Marshall was not a deep threat. We all knew we would be taking a WR between the #11 and #45 pick, and we did...nothing really to complain about.
Tebow is a high ceiling low floor type player. I think if we had taken Dez at #11 and Tebow at #43, there would be far less angry fans. Josh obviously liked Thomas more than Dez...it is undeniable...anyways, it is all relative.
Tebow will see the field in 2010 and will gives us quite a few exciting plays IMO. WRs touch the ball maybe 5 times a game, I think Tim gives us more plays than that. I really could care less what we pay him, jersey sales this year will probably pay for his contract. I was never pro Tebow or anti Tebow. IMO it was an exciting pick, not a practical one. It could turn out brilliantly.
and I dont hate that we have tebow. I hate that we gave up that many picks to get a guy that is such a huge question mark. I loved how we moved around in the draft and got in some good positions...only to erase it all in the blink of an eye.
When the broncos moved back into the 1st, i was exited that they were getting someone to help stop the run....then they showed tebow and I had a feeling I havent felt since I watched mcnabb scramble for a 1st down on 3rd and long to end out playoff hopes
