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.

well, according to the good ol' trade value chart, that #70 pick, when packaged with our #21 pick, is enough to trade up to the #15 pick of the Steelers.
This would allow us to leapfrog teams like Green Bay, Tennessee and the NY Giants; who are all in the market for a running back; if one Marshawn Lynch is still on the board at 15.
A high third rounder isn't bad considering how much talent there is this year. That Third can also help us move up in the First round. That Third can also land us a really great player. Look at all the corners we got 2 years ago. RIP D Will. But we won't know how good this third rounder is untill a couple of years when the pick has been selected.
Redskins got T.J. Duckett... who scored... what, one TD? And it wasn't him that rose up to replace Portis when he went down, it was a personal favorite of mine, Ladell Betts.
Falcons got Lelie, who greeted them with the rare play, same 1 TD, and the typical ATL wideout dropsie syndrome.
We got a high third rounder in a deep rookie class.
Yeh, we did pretty damn well.
Actually, including the value of the fourth rounder, the value of the two picks is the same as a late second rounder.

Agreed. The third round isnt bad at all. Look at all the great players that have came later than that. (EX. Tom Brady-6th round)
anyone else think we didnt do so well on our end of the deal?

Since both teams' seasons are over, do we now finally know exactly what the Broncos are going to get out of the three-way trade involving Ashlie Lelie?
From my understanding, what the Broncos would actually get depended on the outcomes of the two teams' seasons, and involved possibilities like getting their third-round pick or possibly switching first-rounders with them.
The Redskins will be drafting 6th, so I am sure that switching picks with them is out of the question (although it would kick ass ). Does this mean that we get their third-rounder? I know the deal is pretty complex, but I haven't heard anything one way or another on it.
