Hour 1 of The Drive kicks off with Zach and Phil cross talking with Dover and Will Petersen. The guys discuss the news of Bo Nix having a minor clean up surgery and if Broncos should be concerned. We revisit the Mikko Rantanen trade and debate if we see it any different now that more information has come out. Is the Avs moving on from Mikko similar to when the Nuggets decided to let KCP walk this past offseason? Has the Pro-Bowl been “watered down” with guys like Russell Wilson and Drake Maye being invited as alternates this year? Is it too early to give up on Troy Franklin after a lackluster rookie season? Zach reveals that Franklin’s rookie stats are very similar to some of the great wide receivers in Broncos history. Zach and Phil debate where Mikko ranked among the most important Avalanche trying to win another cup. Was bringing in Blackwood a bigger positive than the negative of losing Mikko Rantanen?
