Denver Broncos Make BRILLIANT MOVE at NFL Trade Deadline...

Oh, your Denver Broncos get phenomenal news as the trade deadline approaches. I can promise you Sean Payton is going to bed and he is laughing himself to sleep as he's watching all of these teams overpay. And a lot of that is because he has fleeced them into those moves. And meanwhile, Sean Payton knows that there is a tomorrow that you cannot just spend like there is no tomorrow. The Broncos are dominating not only tomorrow, but also today. And I've got all the receipts to prove that these yahoos and whackers out there saying like, oh, look at George Payton. He's just monitoring the situation. We're in a strong place. We like our roster. Saying like the Jacksonville Jaguars just stuck up the middle finger to the Denver Broncos. You need to remember, what are these same people saying like all year long? This is all they do is talk negatively about your Denver Broncos. These same people back in March were being like... I'm giving the Broncos a D- for free agency. They totally messed it up. Well, guess what? The Broncos are in first place in the AFC West. They're going to win the division. They have the hardest schedule in the NFL, and Sean Payton was right, and I promise you he's going to be right again, and I've got the receipts to prove that. All of these moves the Jaguars made today, they just spent like there was no tomorrow and they are barely a better team than they were when they came here. Essentially, they're swapping out less talented guys for guys who were already on their roster when the Broncos already beat them. And it is not going to age well. And I think Sean Payton manufactured a lot of this because essentially the Jacksonville Jaguars made a ton of moves today, trading for both Bates and trading for a defensive lineman. Okay. And so there are a lot of Broncos fans saying like. All right, Sean and George, your move now, like go out and make a move. Well, that's not how Sean Payton operates, but all he operates is, is like winning the division and being really, really stinking good that despite the hardest schedule in the NFL, here we are laughing at seven and two, knowing that like, we've got the easiest schedule in football moving forward and there aren't huge holes on this team that we need to go out and fix. Okay. But let's, let's talk here just real quick. Everyone is so quick to be like, Hey, throw a first round pick at that. Throw a second around that. And you just got to remember like... what has George Payton and Sean Payton done with these high draft picks? Oh, a first round draft pick. That is the best corner in football. A middle round, first round draft pick. That's Bo Nix. A end of second round, almost a third round draft pick. That's one of the best edge rushers and All-Pro and an NFL top 100 player, Nick Benito. So throwing in all these talks of like, go get Jonathan Taylor. Would you give up Jonathan Taylor for Nick Benito and Quinn Miners? Not in your wildest dreams, guys. You guys have to be absolutely crazy if you think that. Marvin Mims. Very end of the second round. Again, the best punt returner in all of professional football history, Troy Franklin. Fourth round draft pick, like the list goes on and on. Even throwing in something like a seventh round draft pick, like that's Jonathan Cooper that we know that we do better with picks than any of these guys out there. So yeah, maybe if I'm Jacksonville and I know I'm not good at drafting talent, maybe I'm okay just throwing picks around, but like that's not how Sean Payton and George Payton operate. They're not going to overspend because overspending today equals losses tomorrow and the Broncos plan on winning for from now on. Like that is truly their plan. And all they have is receipts of how they've done that. So let's talk quickly here about all of this talk about the Jaguars are all in on this year. They are barely, and I actually would say they're not even as good as when they came here to play us earlier in the season when the Broncos, you remember, we beat them very handily and it should have been an even bigger victory. Bo Nix talked about that afterwards. And our offense has just like clicked on all cylinders since then. They're essentially the exact same team that came here and only scored 13 points on us, except for they're way more hurt than they were here. So when they came here, They had Devon Hamilton. He is an absolute dog. He was the top 10 PFF scored inside tackle or inside defensive lineman, basically. Well, they went out and they traded him for this cat named Jordan Davis, and they had to give a first round draft pick and next year's second round draft pick. Absolutely a swindling of a deal. And that's why you're seeing like all of the Philadelphia creators posting like this gif of Howie Roseman absolutely just dancing and spraying champagne everywhere and just saying like Jacksonville's made three trades at the bare barely makes them as good as they were earlier on in the season. And so you're again, Devon Hamilton, the guy on their team who is now an IR. Look at he's the orange bar. Jordan Davis is the green bar. And you see Hamilton was a better player at every single part of playing interior defensive line. Jordan Davis. So no, they did not level up. They are worse than they were when they came here to play the Denver Broncos. And then Jesse Bates, you could make a real argument here that they had Antonio Johnson, who was the 21st best safety in professional football. And now they're saying Jesse Bates is the fourth best safety in football. So yes, did they get better at that position? They did. But did they get good enough to give up a first, two second round draft picks, a fifth round draft pick and a sixth round draft pick? There is no way. That that is the case, that they're they're truly like if they do not win it this year, they're going to be in a world of hurt moving forward. And, you know, Sean Payton is truly laughing at this. And again. When your biggest move of the day is to go try to get someone from Howie Roseman and the Philadelphia Eagles, he is the biggest swindler and fleecer of all time, and he is truly playing head games on all these guys. There's a time in the NBA when no one would ever make a trade with Danny Ainge because you knew you were going to get hosed on that trade. Well, that is who Howie Roseman is as an NFL GM, that every single time he's traded someone away from their team, they've gone on to do absolutely nothing, like trading away Sam Bradford to the Vikings. He's barely there. Carson Wentz to the Colts. We saw how that turned out. A.J. Brown has played for like an hour all season long, and they got a first-round draft pick from the New England Patriots and Haason Reddick to the Jets. Again, like time and time again, you can just go through the entire list, and there is no way in which you should be bragging if you're a Jacksonville fan at what you did because you're not even as good as when you came here and the Broncos beat you. And so I'm thrilled with how the Broncos are positioning themselves right now, and I think Sean Payton is not going to overpay on any of those guys out there, And that's why you can trust this team. team to win, not just now, but from now on. Now, there are a couple of interesting little wrinkles happening right now, and I want to point them out. So the first interesting wrinkle here is that Jonathan Taylor, we know the Colts want to move on from him. And it sounds like the asking price is a second, a third, a fourth, and a player. So that is a haul to be giving up. And now the odds-on favorite to land Jonathan Taylor is actually the New England Patriots. And I hope that it was actually Sean Payton who drove up this market here for Jonathan Taylor. He's going to be 28 years old. We know the peak year for a running back is 25 years old, so he is already way past his peak. And you look here that like they already spent essentially a number one draft pick on Trayvon Henderson and all my thoughts and prayers with him. He's a great guy, but he is not. He's been AWOL from the team and is dealing with some really serious issues. Rhamondre Stevenson essentially is having an MRI on his knee today. And then AJ Brown, they already don't have a first round draft pick next season. And so. I love the fact that the Patriots are spending like they are just drunken sailors because tomorrow is coming and it is going to feel absolutely amazing here. And I truly believe that when RJ Harvey is back, that this running back room feels different. And I think there are still some moves out there where the Broncos could improve at the periphery without spending that kind of capital on a Jonathan Taylor. Obviously, if Sean Payton makes that move, nobody's going to champion it harder than myself because all we can do is trust Sean Payton because we've trust him to take a A joke of a franchise and make it AFC West champions now two years in a row to make it like a Bo Nix broken ankle away from the Super Bowl. And just look at our running back room like last season going into the playoffs. We had RJ Harvey was it. And now we've seen JK Dobbins is going to get better and better. We know RJ Harvey is not out season ending. And Jonah Coleman, I think, is just going to continue to mature into that role. And so I actually feel great about that. Our running back room is already light years ahead of where it was when we were a broken ankle away from winning the Super Bowl or at least getting to the Super Bowl. So truly do not lose heart that the Jacksonville Jaguars are spending because it reminds me a lot of like all of the AI spend that has been happening and all these companies are dumping all this money into AI data centers and people were criticizing Apple, the company for a long time. You got to make a move into AI. Like, no, we know what we're doing and they're going to outspend their resources. And meanwhile, we're going to just keep plugging away at what we do really well. Well, now Apple is the most valuable company on the planet earth right now because they did not overspend like all of these other companies. And I think it is a phenomenal, uh, just like a mental model to think that is who Sean Payton is. He's driving up prices for guys. He is making the Jacksonville Jaguars scared of like, Hey, we got to stop the run. And again, they're barely better. And actually I would say they are the same team that came in here. Uh, Jesse Bates, like you don't think Sean Payton is going to be able to scheme around a, uh, a safety, like their corners are garbage and, and turnstiles. And we're going to have obviously Jalen Waddle back by then. So, uh, it is a very, very good time. Other, I am keeping an, uh, or another player I'm keeping an eye on is we know Vance Joseph is super plugged into the Arizona Cardinals. Uh, he was not only like, A great coach there, but super tight, still a great friend with a lot of the players there. We saw the mic'd up segments where all the defensive players came up and gave him some love. Well, now one of the rumors I saw was that the Broncos might actually be in the safety market. And so might Budda Baker be a move, uh, where the Broncos, just like knowing that Brandon Jones is on the last year of his contract, might you upgrade that position? And no, uh, I love me some, uh, Brandon Jones, but he was hurt last year in the playoffs. Tanoa Hufanga has been in and out. And so I love the fact of if you, all of a sudden that Brandon Jones, Budda Baker, and, uh, the Tanoa Hufanga, I feel phenomenal about a defense. I already am over the moon excited about. Um, and then other one to keep an eye on here is just, uh, looking at the all 22 film from yesterday. There are some times in which you see Ben Powers just completely whiff on guys. And Landon Dickerson is a name out of the Philadelphia Eagles. We know Howie Roseman swindles people all the time. And so I don't want to give up too much for him. But we have seen his ceiling be an all-pro player, be one of the best guards in all professional football. He's coming back from an injury, and he's not that player now. But I do trust Sean Payton to evaluate and see. Hey, could he still get to that level? And is that a poor man's version of Quenton Nelson? The move that we saw earlier this season as the Seattle Seahawks gave an arm and a leg to the Indianapolis Colts to go out and get Nelson, who now is on IR and is out for probably the next four weeks. So truly, I think this is like coming out beautifully here because here the Broncos are on their bye week where I think you could do moves where you like re-sign guys that we currently have. And you know you're playing with house money because the Broncos are 7-2 with the easy part of our schedule. That home field advantage throughout the playoffs is a real, real thing. And you get to the Super Bowl, and we've already seen what Sean Payton does when he plays NFC teams. Like, who actually scares you in the NFL right now? I'm telling you, the Jaguars do not scare me. After what we saw yesterday from the New England Patriots, they do not scare me. We are obviously going to tune in and watch what Buffalo does tonight against the Vikings and a great defense there. But I'm telling you guys, the Broncos are going to have the one seed in the entire AFC. And do not listen to the jokers, the same panikins who were telling you to panic when the Broncos were sitting on their hands in April. Well, guess what? The Broncos are 7-2, and they told you we'd be lucky to be 500. They were wrong. Sean was right. So are you going to listen to Sean Payton? Are you going to listen to people who have a track record of being demonstrably wrong time and time and time again? Broncos country. We're winning the West. We're winning the one seed in the AFC, and we got a ton to believe in.
