Who was the bigger bust in Denver? Cutler?Osweiler?Lynch?Lock?

Not sure second round picks can be busts.

Cutler wasn’t really a bust.

Lynch becomes the bust by default although it may not be fair given he never should have been drafted in the first round.

It's hard to believe now but at the time of the 2016 Draft some teams were really high on Lynch, even though he was a project. Jerry made no secret that he wanted him at the Cowboys and lamented that as the Broncos got there first, Dallas eventually decided they would have to settle for Dak in a later round.

It's sad that this is what it's come down to, discussing which pile of poo stinks more.

That's the gamble you take when drafting QBs. Some pan out but most do not.
The question is: Will this year's draftee be another bust?

[GMTD]

Paxton Lynch without a doubt. A first round selection in 2016 (QBs selected ahead of him were Goff and Wentz - not a great class), he only started 4 games and is now the third string QB at the Saskatchewan Roughriders in the CFL.

Lynch. He was Elways first big swing at QB and talk about a flameout. Couldn't even stick with the CFL. It set the tone for every QB free agent or draft since. All bad.

All were pretty bad, even though I really hoped all were the right guy. Sure didn't work out that way....

I was hoping to see what Chad Kelly would bring but he self-destructed.

Cutler was pretty ok in Denver, but a bust compared to where he was drafted.

We got nicely compensated in that trade for him.
Not that those draft picks turned into anything great, but we did get good trade value for him.

If you are talking about Bronco drafted QBs only....I would go with Lynch

Who’s the biggest failure since Elway?

The bigger bust has to be Cutler as he was drafted high after trading up and he drug a 13-3 down to 17-20 in his tenure. Cutler was also the best of those four though 2015 Osweiler was a huge success. Lynch - three games - none of us can know if he had any potential but he was expensive in draft capital. Lock in his own right has been instrumenental in cementing Broncos as a bottom tier club. None of the others ever got away with so little being demanded off them.

Cutler wasn't a bust, he was a good QB. Lynch was definitely a bust.
Jury is still out on Drew Lock.
