It's a low risk thing for Denver but Davis has been one of the least productive TEs in the league the last couple of years

So basically a 6th round pick for Vernon Davis. Seeing this I have to say there is no way the Packers were even remotely involved in the talk for Vernon Davis.

49ers get
2016 6th round pick
2017 67th round pick

Broncos get
TE Vernon Davis
2016 7th round pick

Being from the Bay Area, I watch Niners games more than I should.

This has "Moss to New England" all over it. Vernon Davis hasn't been used properly ever since Kaepernick became QB. Even in Kaepernick's prime, he never knew how to throw a touch pass. Whenever he did throw to Vernon, it was either an overthrown ball, or he put it in a dangerous place where Davis would get rocked. The result? Vernon would either drop it, not try to get it, or catch it and then get killed. Watch any game where the played the Seahawks, and you'll see Kam Chancellor literally beating the living hell out of Vernon Davis.

Maybe that's part of it. He was hurt a lot, but Kaepernick has never done him any favors.

Kubiak's offense is very TE heavy, and I envision this to be nothing but awesome for Denver.

Nah, Ted Thompson likes to sit with his thumb up his ass while wearing nothing but a T-shirt that says "next man up"...

Dont count on us trading or signing anyone to help better our team.

Mucky Tundra (14h) : Based on Gutes comments, now I don't feel as silly having 13 picks in my mock the other day

Zero2Cool (15h) : Zach Wilson to Broncos.

Zero2Cool (18h) : Gutekunst says he'd love to have 13 or 14 picks. He's trading back huh lol

beast (20h) : Someday we'll have a draft betting scandal

dfosterf (21-Apr) : One playbook to my knowledge. I was shooting for facetious.

beast (20-Apr) : I'm not sure they have different playbooks for different OL positions, and Dillard run blocking is supposedly worse than his pass blocking..

dfosterf (19-Apr) : The only problem with that is he isn't a guard either.

dfosterf (19-Apr) : Put him at right guard. That is where he will be coached. That is where he will compete. He is not even allowed to look at the LT playbook.

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Kidding aside, I hope the best for him.

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Went to a Titans board. One comment there. Not very long. I quote: "LOL" They don't sound overly upset about our aquisition.

beast (18-Apr) : OT Dillard has been absolutely horrible... like OG Newman levels

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Suit him up and have him stand in front of the big board as a draft day cautionary tale.

Zero2Cool (18-Apr) : Packers sign T Andre Dillard.

Mucky Tundra (18-Apr) : Adds most of the information this time of year comes from agents.

Mucky Tundra (18-Apr) : @RealAlexBarth Bill Belichick says accurate draft information doesn't leak from teams until about 12 hours before the draft. Adds most of th

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : Saints have agreed to terms on a contract with former Packers wide receiver Equanimeous St. Brown.

dfosterf (8-Apr) : I say he is better than so many of these draft picks

dfosterf (8-Apr) : Question of the week for me: Has anyone besides me done any deep dive into the potential of Alex McGough, our 3rd string qb?

Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Or in Tunsil's case, something gets released day of draft or day before lol

Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Seems every year someone does something pre-draft.

dfosterf (8-Apr) : Falling down drunk. The draft board
