Something to remember... Tim Tebow and Blaine Gabbeet were both first rounders. I ain't predicting Dak in the first round, but I've certainly seen dumber things happen before.

Crazy considering he didn't really blow people away in Mobile. I'd rather see him land at the end of the 2nd round that end up somewhere that burns through QBs.

Kansas City with the #59 pick would be a great fit, IMO.

I keep reading people on here wanting him to go to Kansas City to play for Reid. Where are people getting Dak = WCO from?

I'm guessing it's because Alex Smith has done well for Reid

and Alex Smith is a quarterback who was coached by Mullen in college.

In my opinion, the KC thing is being brought up due to Donovan McNabb. I've seen some draft pundits compare Dak to McNabb. Makes sense on the surface due to size and mobility. Although, I think Dak has a little more mobility. Either way, Reid is a great coach and I think would do well with Dak. Reid is the type of coach that can adapt to his players talents.

I think he impressed at the Senior Bowl. I think the media did a poor job and understated his impact. He had one poor practice day but the others were good, the interviews were on point, and he was clearly the best QB on the field that day. For whatever, reason, the press kept talking about Carson Wentz but he looked average when facing better competition. Brandon Allen FWIW was the second best QB on the field that day. He showed good arm strength and accuracy but not the command that Dak had.

KC currently has 4 QBs on it's depth chart .. Alex Smith (11 years), Chase Daniel (7 years, came from NO as a FA), Aaron Murray (2 years, drafted in 5th round, pick 163) and Dominique Davis (3 years, been with 4 teams, signed as a FA for '16)

Meanwhile, Denver is getting interesting. I just don't see Peyton coming back .. which leaves 1 QB on contract .. Trevor Siemian (Rookie from Northwestern; coming off an ACL in his last month of CFB). Brock Osweiler (4 years, 2nd round, pick 57) had an up and down year as Peyton's backup, starter, then back to backup BUT is not 'on contract .. yet. Last I heard, he will soon start negotiating with Elway who wants to pay #2 QB money and Brock thinking about determining his worth as a FA. Denver insists they want him back but don't want to tag him as their 'franchise' player with the $19M+ hit.

Denver 'could' enter upcoming draft with their lone QB having appeared in ONE NFL game, and who is 1 for 1 for -1 yards in his NFL career. Of course, Denver has plenty of options .. trading for a starter (or potential starter) .. Resign and make Brock the starter .. stand pat and give Peyton one more year (doubtful) .. or go with Brock and draft another QB in the upcoming draft.

The Peyton / Denver decision .. one way or the other has to happen in less than a week .. clock is ticking.
