Terrell impresses

Broncos coach Mike Shanahan said this week at the NFL owners meetings that he believes David Terrell can be an impact player at receiver. Terrell has been on Denver's roster since the second week of the season but played rarely.

Still, after he learned Denver's system, the former No. 8 overall pick is going to get the opportunity to be Denver's No. 3 receiver this year.

"David Terrell can be very good," Shanahan said. "He has a real chance."

Shanahan said he still believes Darius Watts can be productive in Denver.

A second-round pick in 2004 and No. 3 receiver as a rookie, Watts dropped to the No. 6 receiver in 2005 and was a nonfactor after dropping several passes during the preseason.

"Darius just has to get consistent," Shanahan said.

WHAT ABOUT LELIE! We need to get a consistent receiver to replace him.

FOR EXAMPLE JAVON WALKER

Why because he only had 700 yards as a #2 reciever, named 5 #2's that had more.

Now if you notice are 3rd recievers yards dropped off greatly after Lelie, Lelie is fine, we just need a #3 to stretch the field for him.

[Domostick]

Curtis is a #3 too lol.

Oh wait, aren't all those guys on pass heavy offenses?

[Inkana7]

And isn't Boldin a #1?

[West]

Nope. TJ, Donte, and Terry are actually on balanced offenses.

[West]

And isn't Boldin a #1?

Fine then we say Fitzgerald if Boldin were a 1. It doesn't really make a difference.

[dogfish]

wow, first they tell us we're set at D-line, now terrell is going to be an impact #3 WR. . . maybe we don't have any holes after all? we couldn't possibly draft 3 TEs could we?





JUST KIDDING!! i want terrell to do well as much as anyone else, and if he's showing signs of it then that's very encouraging. . . now let's see what dinger can do with watts. . .

[Perry1977]

Curtis is a #3 too lol.

Who was playing #2 or #1 for a good stretch of the time due to injuries.

[vicious2500]

Nope. TJ, Donte, and Terry are actually on balanced offenses.

TJ's in a pass 1st offense the Bengals liked to run a no huddle offense often during the game. Because Palmer actually played better that way and was emulating Manning. Also we run the ball a lot more than we pass it, so comparing us to other teams that are more pass happy is kind of like comparing apples to oranges.

I thought this was about David Terrell,not yet another Ashley Lelie bash session.

replace him? I would admit he is progressing slowly but non the less, he is progressing. I don't want to se Lelie go anywhere, I really like how defenses have to respect his downfield threat. That gives us even more running ability when the strong safty has to pull back into coverage instead of playing the run. Lelie might never be true #1 we want but he will always be an excellent #2 to compliment the #1 spot.

people are kinda all-or-nothing around here-- if a young player hasn't become a super-star, they wanna get rid of him. . . and draft a less-proven player to replace him. . .
