  • A couple moves I think would shore up our defense!

    1st) Sign DL Ty Warren. Him and Bunkley combined with HAM, Vickerson, Jarmon, etc. Would create a nice rotation. 2nd) Trade DJ Williams and a draft pick for Asante Samuels. Samuels would fit our defense perfectly creating turnovers and is still a decent corner. Now before you blast this read the third move. 3rd) Sign LB Lofa Tatupu. He would fill the void left by the DJ trade. He is still a solid linebacker and would give iriving enough time or whoever to fill in the mlb spot. comment away

        No to Warren, no to Lofa.

        Both unnecessary and only going to get in the way of the younger guys.

        The only real question remaining on this defense is CB #2, IMO.

          I have np w/Warren, but I have a problem with trading DJ. He's been moved non-stop and still puts up over 100 tackles. Plus I like our young CB core, just let them develop

            I like them to but they can make or break the broncos season with more break than make. Cox who is the broncos only proven young corner back has a cloudy future and Bailey and Goodman are old and with age comes injury and its harder to recover from. That is the only position on defense that needs a tune up. Unless there is someone shining in training camp we ain't hear about yet

              I know we want to win this year, but do you really want Samuel's large contract for a guy who's 30? IMHO you let them learn behind Champ, Dawkins, and Goodman

                  He's 30, Champ is 34 and still at the top of his game.

                  Samuel has a lot left in the tank.

                    I like the idea of still signing Warren if the price is right. Rotate him, Bruntley, Vickerson and Thomas. That's not a bad crop of DT's. None of them elite, but four potentially solid run-stoppers.

                    No to trading DJ. We would be taking a step back.

                      and they can still do that while asante is playing ahead of them. CB is that one position on defense you can't play around with. Also if a trade were to happen for asante the only way I see him restructuring is if the deal has more years (that's if he actually would want to stay in Denver) and a good bit of guaranteed money.

                        Lofa is the same age as DJ. But I agree no if and that's a big if we traded DJ. Lofa wouldn't be the guy we sign, he is an ILB not an OLB

                          Like Warren (doubt we'll sign him), don't like trading DJ Williams for Asante and don't think Tatupu would be worth signing.

                            I actually wouldn't mind any of that. Warren would give us a great DE/DT, We get a great corner in Asante, and Lofa could replace DJ for a year, and mentor guys like Irving or Mays.

                            As for getting Samuel, he would fill a need because what happens if Cox goes to jail? Goodman's injury prone, and old, and I like Thompson, but he's not ready to be alongside Champ Bailey yet. Can you imagine a backfield of Champ Bailey, Asante Samuel, Brian Dawkins, and Rahim Moore? Crazy!

                            Let's do it!

                              Bad idea IMO. DJ does have issues off the field but has done what was asked of him on the field. That's the attitude we need our young players to be around...... "TEAM FIRST "
