So it appears Elway got his guy. I’m ok with the Keenum signing and think he’s the best QB option we’ve had in the past 3 seasons, so well done on an upgrade there John. The Tremaine Brock signing is just “meh” in my book, definitely an upgrade over Langley but huge downgrade from Talib, but I think Roby is ready to fill Aqib’s role so I don’t think we got any worse at CB. I despise the fact that we have Todd Davis money, that guy has been stealing a paycheck for 3 years in Denver, him and Marshall easily make up the worst pair of starting ILBs in the league. For some strange reason Elway does not know how to improve this position, so he keeps throwing trash at it. With that said overall I’m disappointed in what we’ve done in FA so far, but if John were to make the moves below, or something similar, I would be ok with it;
Free Agents;
RB Kenjon Barner (great option as the 3rd RB behind CJ and Booker, and an obvious upgrade at KR.)
WR Jarius Wright (someone Case is familiar with, and a great option as the slot guy.)
RT Cameron Fleming (I don’t understand what’s taking John so long on this. Fleming isn’t getting a lot of interest, could be a nice bargain signing and potentially our solution at RT)
3 middle of the road bargain signings we don’t need to break the bank on, but are necessary guys to add.
Draft;
1. DB Minkah Fitzpatrick
If we stay at 5 and go BPA this is the guy.
2. ILB Leighton Vander Esch
Again, we badly need an upgrade inside, maybe Elway sobers up long enough on draft day to actually recognize this.
After that it’s all gravy from there. Still think we are a 6-10 team at best with our current coaching staff, but the pieces are in place to be decent in a couple years.
