I'd really like to see Payton keep him. Pair him with Dulcich for a nice Dual TE look. Get some size in the red zone by pairing O, Dulcich with Sutton and Patrick.

**Vera Hara** · 07-07-2023, 07:29 AM

He isn't going to outperform Dulcich, but Payton should be able to find a way to utilize him. Don't know what he did to get in the last coaching staff's doghouse, but there have been some rumors. It should be quite easy to carve out a niche role for him.

ffs I'm a bronco fan and I can't get the least bit worked up about whether they may have blown a 4th round pick three years ago. This is the best you got? Your troll game is on the decline bro.

Hang it up!

Come on man...it's early July....

Tough to be devastated if a 4th round pick from a draft full of bad picks doesn’t work out. Bit of a whiff.

....that pick is one the SHOULD be working out though.

75% of players drafted on Day 3 of the NFL Draft are out of the league before their rookie contracts are up.

I understand that....but for what Albert O showed to start his career...you shouldn't have needed to go and draft another one dimension pass catching TE.

Everyone in the Broncos' TE room outside of Albert O. was in the final year of their deals entering last season.

Those folks all say it's becasue he sucks as a blocker.

(where have I heard that before???? certainly not from ME pointing that out a long time ago)

Anyhow....If Albert O doesn't make the roster....that's a big Fail for this organization. I know the current GM and coach didn't draft him. But you had to use a high draft pick on essentially the same player in Greg Dulcich to replcace Albert. Dulcich isn't a blocking TE either. Seems less than optimal to have to expend a high end pick on a resource you already had on the team.

I suspect Albert O will end up somewhere that needs a pass catching TE...the Rams come to mind....So do the Cardinals. .....Raiders have a spot since they moved on from Waller. Wouldn't surprise me if Albert O goes on to outperform Dulcich overall.

dude get the fk on idk why you feel you can make threads about the broncos on broncos boards like you a whole joke dude. Idgaf what you have to say.

Zerovoltz. I don't post there. I post on a few Chiefs facebook groups and I tweet some about the Chiefs. .....and great analysis and information doesn't have to come from a Broncos fan.

**Jeudy10Mims19** · 07-07-2023, 01:27 PM

Wow this guy isn’t a part of ANY CHEIFS FORUM BUT REGISTERS AND POST ON BRONCOS FORUMS…. Fkn goofy!

Why don’t you go register on chargers and raiders forums? Oh wait you probably already there as well. Everywhere but where you supposed to be

**bronco militia** · 07-07-2023, 01:43 PM

Yawn… this guy has been given multiple opportunities to succeed in the NFL and hasnt panned out. What is there left to discuss?

I’m not doubting you, but can you share some examples? I’d be curious to see who’s saying it and what exactly they’re saying. Because I don’t think anyone knows for sure how things like this will work out with Payton now on board.

Broncos Projected to Part Ways With Former 4th-Round Starter

The Denver Broncos could cut their losses with one of their former starting tight ends with a new coaching staff taking the runs in 2023.

Gary, you got alotta ballz coming in here STARTING a negative thread about one of OUR players. I don't know if he's a bad blocker, but I do know this: He's the fastest TE in the NFL.

And you did this on the same day you posted your galatically moronic take that Neil Smith is one of the 5 greatest Broncos defensive players ever.... I have to laugh.

Albert O is a red zone target but not as fluid and nimble as Dulcich.

Yep. Neil Smith was a fat turd when he was on the Broncos. He helped us, but he was still over the hill.

I'm remembering more about that round....

Elway didn't pick Albert O ... Drew Lock did!

John had a pick ready, but he wasn't real excited about it. Just then he saw something (maybe Albert's 4.5 40 time), so he called Lock and asked if we should draft him. Predictably, Lock said something like, "Yeah! That's my boy!" So John drafted him.

I think Lock and Albert roomed together at Missouri or something.

**uplink** · 07-08-2023, 09:24 AM

There is more going on with Albert O than we seem to know. Blocking ability isn't enough to explain it all. Accounts are broncos got calls for a trade last year but didn't trade him.

**cmhargrove** · 07-08-2023, 01:34 PM

Albert O is a good straight line pass catcher, but he doesn’t understand how to do his QB any favors by sitting down in a zone. Dulcich understands this skill implicitly, which makes him much more valuable to the team. I think Albert O serves a purpose on this team if we see good effort to improve, but so far he hasn’t risen up to the occasion. None of us really knows if it’s basic intelligence, or bad attitude, but there’s obviously a reason the coaches haven’t trusted him yet.

Dulcich has all the attributes of a potential “top 10 TE” in this league. We’ll see if Payton wants to feature him in our new run heavy attack. His ability to get open + an improved play action attack should get him somewhere over 800 yards and 8 TDs this year
