OT: Broncos Open for Business

[pemory09]

100% trade for Surtain. He is one of the best CB in the NFL and still has 2 years left (with 5th year option) on original deal.
I just don't see the Broncos trading him...that would be stupid.

The Broncos? Being stupid? Sounds like one of the few things at which they excel.

Denver fans super thrilled. that Sean Payton hired Vance.

The offense has improved somewhat but the defense went from very good to horrific in one season.

Be careful what you ask for

VJ is all smoke and mirrors and his defense gets exposed by OCs

And to think, we had that travesty in AZ for 4 stinking years.

Why would Clark give back money?

Why would Clark give back money?

Only thing I can think is that he requested a trade or release and this was the Broncos condition for doing it?

Yep. In a way I feel bad for Kliff. Didn't they force Vance on him? Sean Payton actually hired the guy.

Imagine if we had hired Payton and still had Vance. Our currently bad defense would be even worse and probably giving up 50+ a game. Glad Payton said no thanks to Bidwill.

Let me repeat that, 4 stinking years

To facilitate a trade??????

Yes, Kliff had almost zero input on his staff. Even when Kugler was fired in Mexico, it was reported that Kliff wanted him gone much sooner, but couldn't fire him.

I guess, but this says traded or released. If they're going to release him anyway, Clark could've kept his guaranteed money and signed with whomever he wanted. Weird deal.

 

[TheCardFan]

Agreed - weird.

I'm guessing there's a trade partner already involved and their parameters dictated a lower salary. I think the only way he's released is if that deal falls apart.

So sad (not really) for Broncos fans. High hopes dashed already. I'm not sure they have as much direction and purpose than us at this point.

1) Because you have 2-3 WRs on the field at once, so it's good to have multiple good options.

2) Sometimes you draft a WR and he's Justin Jefferson; sometimes he's Michael Floyd. Sometimes he's A.J. Jenkins. You never know if you're going to draft a guy as good/better than someone who has at least proven they're an NFL player.

If this offense wants bigger bodies, especially on the outside, Courtland Sutton at 6'4" might be a schematic upgrade over Hollywood Brown even if the production is roughly similar.

All those sub 6' WR's take the jump ball right off the table.

Did CBs and safeties hit a growth spurt?

Receivers with great hands (large and sticky) do well regardless of height but we don’t have one of those

HA! THe deadpan look at the camera from the other dude at the 1:30 mark is classic.

 

[BritCard]

Imagine trading 3 first round picks, 3 second round picks, a 5th round pick and 3 players for Wilson and Payton.

Might be the worst moves in football history.

The concern with Sutton is injury history but yes he can play.

But I seriously doubt we're in the market for players right now.

 

[Russ Smith]

The Jeudy thing is becoming obvious. They showed a replay of a play in last nights game that was very similar to the Jets game where he didn't come back to help Wilson out. He clearly doesn't want to be there, he's not playing hard. He had a good year last year, you figured this year contract year he'd break out and it's just not happening.

I expect he'll go somewhere and play much better but it's not a good look the lack of effort is obvious.

When will people learn not to mess with Steve Smith? Pound for pound up there with Anquan for toughness.
