Trade suitors for Antonio Brown are lining up their draft picks and cash to potentially land the standout Pittsburgh Steeler Jeff Heuerman Color Rush Jersey , who is one of the best wide receivers on the football field right now ... when he shows up.And while there was a “report” that the Denver Broncos may be among those suitors (which was really just rival GMs speculating the Broncos may be interested), there’s a big question mark about whether the Broncos could a) afford him and b) attract him. For fans there may also be a question mark for “do we want him?” But according to the MHR poll two days ago, more of Broncos Country than not would like to see it.The topic of Antonio Brown was a big one on Orange and Blue Radio Monday as Ryan Edwards, Andrew Mason and Steve A ... er discussed whether it was feasible and desirable.Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic pointed out that the absence of Demaryius Thomas following his midseason trade from the Broncos definitely left a hole in the offense, and now with Emmanuel Sanders coming back from an Achilles injury, having a top wideout like Brown is certainly attractive for an offense. But would he be worth giving up draft picks when the Broncos are clearly in a position of needing to build the team in a lot of areas?The 1st and 10 crew also asked Bob Holtzman, former ESPN reporter now working with Broncos TV Menelik Watson Jersey , his impression of Brown and the potential to land in Denver.Having covered Brown extensively while working for ESPN, Holtzman noted that his impression of Brown then was always as a “soft-spoken, hard-working guy” who may just need a change of scenery.Although Brown’s ego has clearly made him less soft-spoken and more like the “diva” we expect from wide receivers, Holtzman believes a locker room like the Broncos - with a leader like Von Miller - could be a good place for Brown.Mainly, Holtzman believes if there’s an opportunity to get Brown, the Broncos should go for it.“No doubt I’d consider him. Since in the league, no one has more catches or more yards...AB is really https://www.broncosfanstore.com/Darian-Stewart-Jersey , really good. He’s on Hall-of-Fame trajectory already at age 30,” Holtzman pointed out. “I just think If you can bring in somebody as uber-talented as AB, you’ve gotta try.”But A ... er noted the elephant in the room and made the most subtle but awesome dig at our quarterback - Are the Broncos and their current QB really the place for Brown?“Some of the balls thrown to AB, he is covered and covered well, and he makes amazing catches,” A ... er said, adding that often times last season the Broncos had guys open or only slightly covered and Case Keenum didn’t throw them the pass. “I wonder Max Garcia Color Rush Jersey , does AB realize the importance of having a quarterback like a Ben Roethlisberger who goes into the games saying, ‘I’m throwing whether you’re covered or not.’“It’s not just AB running routes and making great catches. It’s also Ben Roethlisberger making the commitment to throw the ball regardless of the situation,” A ... er added. “With a quarterback who is not as confident, and [Brown] ends up next season with 60-70 catches, I can’t imagine the kind of blow up that he’s gonna have.”Which makes you think that if the Broncos really are serious about considering a trade for Brown - and there’s no clear indication that that is the case - the Broncos must also be thinking about a different quarterback and John Elway has found something in those trees he’s shaking.Bonus:The entire interview with Holtzman is a good one. As a reporter who covered Vic Fangio at the Niners and Bears, he believes this is a really good fit for the Broncos:Listen to "Bob Holtzman on 1st & 10 01-14-19" on Spreaker. When the Denver Broncos were down 20-3 in the second half to the Los Angeles Rams, you could hear the chants for Chad Kelly in the stands. Instead Bradley Chubb Jersey , Case Keenum attacked the Rams prevent defense to lead a comeback that come up short in a 23-20 home defeat.After the game, Vance Joseph dismissed any notion that there could be a quarterback change coming saying, “Case is our quarterback.” to the first question about his possible benching.Case Keenum is now having a year that is kind of right in the middle of his pre-2017 and 2017 seasons, so a regression back to the mean. He is 122/192 for a 63.5 completion percentage with 1365 yards and 5 touchdowns and 7 interceptions on the year.Pretty much pedestrian and a slight improvement over the Trevor Siemian era. The Broncos paid $18 million for the quarterback they saw last year and got a bottom third in the league quarterback instead.In this situation, I think back to 2011. The Broncos were 1-4 and Kyle Orton was having another pedestrian day, going 6/13 for 34 yards down two scores. Tim Tebow, who is barely a quarterback by any measure of quarterbacks https://www.broncosfanstore.com/Andy-Janovich-Jersey , comes in and the rest is history. Sometimes, the problem isn’t the quarterback, but changing quarterbacks is the solution anyway. We’re not quite there yet, but Vance Joseph sure seems like a coach who is going to stick with Case Keenum no matter how back it gets. He is coaching for his job and isn’t going to risk it on a second-year quarterback no matter what.So put away your Chad Kelly chants, Broncos Country, that is never happening under Joseph’s watch.
