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.

If Cutler calls up Shanahan and talks about their chemistry and how much he wants Bennett to be a Bronco, do you think Shanahan will listen to the opinion of his quarterback?
It really depends on what we have to give up to get him. Also, where he goes, I would expect more of a.. "If he's there late we will draft him, but if not then we won't give up our draft for him."
If we picked up extra picks then maybe we target him though. I am not sure if Bennet is a surefire second or third rounder, but we may need the extra wideout.
Shanahan won't just drop his draft plans because Jay says he wants his teammate though, you still gotta look at the ups and downs of the kid and decide if you want to draft him.

This is of course if Javon is traded/released.
He freakin better.
Jay is a helluva lot more important to the team than Shanny.
I would advise the route where we keep the key to our team good and happy.
I don't think the FO will bend over backwards to get Earl Bennett, but if they can find a way to get him that fits into their plans, they likely will. A happy franchise QB = a productive franchise QB.
if the broncos are looking at getting a WR cutler could help bennetts cause but i do not expect shanny to just listen to jay. He is going to do what him and pat bowlen(considering that is the only man that has more power than shanny) thinks is best for the team.

"I'm scared if I stop all at once, the cumulative hangover will literally kill me."
If there's any player on the team who can influence the way we draft, it's Jay. With that said if Bennett is still there in the fourth I think we will draft him, or maybe trade up for a late third round pick, but I don't think we will use our second round pick on him. That seems to high IMO, and we have bigger needs that can be addressed with that pick (DT).
Without a doubt... I saw an interview with BMarsh where he mentioned about half a dozen times about how open to players opinions Shannahan was. Marshall actually jogged up to Shanny after a play, told him he could beat the defender on the double move so the play was called by Brandon and resulted in a TD.
I would defiantly put it on Shannahan to have confidence in Cutler enough to have a high influence on draft picks, if Jay felt the way he supposedly does about Bennett, or Williams.
