LOL. Sign a guy to a 16 million dollar deal with 5.5M in the first year and you think we will cut him. Oh boy

I wonder how active we are gonna be when free agency actually starts lol

I think we are going to be very active. I think we sigh s big name guy like Ingram or Trumaine Johnson and a few sold guys like Tammey, Murray, Garcone, etc
LDE- DeForest Buckner
NT- JOHNATHAN HANKINS?
RDT- Earl Mitchell
RDE- MELVIN INGRAM?

AA, Lynch, Brooks, Dial and Blair are backups. Harold and Tank are in tough to make the team.
The only players I think this affects is Dorsey, Dial, and Blair.

You are basically saying that Mitchell is our best interior pass rusher. You may want to rethink that lineup. I don't think we'll be in the market for any top interior DL in FA any longer.

The other thing to note is that both of the guys we signed won't affect comp picks but that probably won't be a factor this year.

We have to be. 100 Mil in cap space and a depleted roster. It's a no brainer

Pierre Garcon
Melvin Ingram
Johnathan Hankins
Some of the Atl guys like Patrick DiMarco, Matt Schaub, Chris Chester and Jacob Tamme make sense as quality vets to bring in
Remember Darnell Dockett i Know Mitchel is younger but he is not the main course

If we can get Hankins I'll be happy as hell...not gonna be cheap though.

I think we will go draft for edge rusher
Living in Denver and listening to 104.3 the fan all day. Broncos insiders were bullish on this guy. They really wanted him. They are hurting bad on the interior DL. They wanted Mitchell and Chris Baker from Washington. Vance Joseph raved about him.

We just signed Mitchell to play a position that Hankins would probably play, don't see it happening. Would rather spend money in FA on our outside pass rush or CB rather than more on the interior DL.

We still need an anchor point, good signing seeing as we need mucho help and upgrades for our interior defensive line whether that be 3-4 or 4-3.

He is a disruptive force regarding pass defense

Good news
Meh, if he's playing nose, then draft a guy for nose I guess.

I don't really see him being great as 1 tech.

I agree. They should go ALL IN for a LEO. Melvin Ingram, plz.
Per Mike klis

Broncos were close to getting DL Earl Mitchell but outbid by 49ers. #9sports
