"Why Broncos say QB Paxton Lynch isn’t “mentally” or physically ready"

This is code for "Lynch is another Elway QB draft bust and we're trying to distract you so we can cut him in the dark of the night next spring."

From 2011 to 2016, Elway drafted four QBs - Osweiler, Dysert, Siemian and Lynch. All four have been demoted or couldn't beat out the starter who got demoted. Elway is 0 for 4 and doesn't even know it. 

Earlier this year, Elway signed Kyle Sloter as a rookie free agent. Sloter brought hope where there was none and had the highest QB rating of all rookies in the preseason. He completed 31 of 43 passes for 413 yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions. Elway cut him.

In the 2017 NFL Draft, Chad Kelly was selected by Elway as the last pick. Kelly was the only SEC QB to beat Nick Saban twice. Elway demoted him yesterday.

Elway has burned his boats and will go down in flames with the three underachievers on the roster.
