Denver Broncos fans don’t want Zach Mettenberger
Denver Broncos fans in the Twitter universe don’t appear to have any interest in bringing in recently waived QB Zach Mettenberger of the Titans…
The Tennessee Titans waived 2014 sixth round pick Zach Mettenberger, a once promising young QB whose career took a left turn somewhere along the way. Despite his flaws, some have thought he has the potential to at least be an effective backup and spot starter in the league.
His major flaws are pocket presence and the amount of sacks he takes, but in a league that is parched for lack of quarterback play, it’s interesting that the Titans felt like they had adequate enough depth with Marcus Mariota and Matt Cassel to just let Mettenberger go for nothing.
If no one picks him up on waivers, the Broncos will have a chance with the last waiver spot or as a free agent to get him, if they so choose. I polled Broncos fans on Twitter to see if they would have any interest in bringing in the former LSU Tigers quarterback…
…and the responses were probably about what you’d expect.
How many QBs do you want to on the roster? Sanchez is starting (for now), Lynch plays ASAP and Simien is the development guy

I would, A little competition makes everyone better, even if it's just for OTA's

Mettenberger has a cannon arm and zero feel for the position.

Not at all. Don't want anything that would take away from development of Lynch.

No real need. Lynch will be starting week 7 anyway!

So, at this point, I think it’s safe to say where the majority stands.
