Byron Maxwell will have 0 dead cap space after the 2017 season, so he'll be around this season, which means we have a year to bring Tank along. (Cutting Maxwell this year only saves us 3M, and we'd eat 5M)

I think Tankersly should project well as a nickelback. I'd love Christian Wilkins, or maybe Quinton Nelson if we're picking a few spots later. But it's WAY too early to be talking about players being slotted.

tankersly would play boundary though right?

On the other hand - maybe it is always too early to discuss where a player should be slotted. #DodgetheDraft

Oregon WR Darren Carrington (His dad played for us) off field troubles mostly with weed, but keep an eye on him.

Speaking of which Clemson WR Deon Cain. Also suspended for a championship game, but is back on track now. (not last years the year before) mega talented WR.

Broncos projected to get a third round pick with the big contract Okung signed with Chargers.

2018 Compensatory Draft Picks Update (5/9/2017) | Over the Cap


  • Denver: It could be bad deja vu for the Broncos regarding a comp pick involving Russell Okung. This is because although Ronald Leary is currently projected as a 4th round value, if he logs a very high number of snap counts (as starting offensive linemen tend to do), he could be upgraded to a 3rd rounder. If that happens, it mandates that Leary would cancel out Okung, and the Broncos would see their 3rd round comp pick for Okung demoted to a 7th rounder for Dekoda Watson that may not make the 32-pick limit. To be clear, Leary playing all snaps at a high level is preferable to a late 3rd round pick, and I say that as a Broncos fan. However, my fellow Broncos fans should be aware that their lone comp pick projection has low confidence attached to it.

Yeah, SS is known for getting our hopes up with comp picks, only to dash them when the truth is revealed.

Haha I hope it works out in our favor. We kind of go screwed this last comp pick grouping by them counting the entire Okung contract instead of just the 1-year option year of $5 million.

McFadden has great tools. He and Derwin James together will be a beautiful scene.

Yeah really depends on how much improvement Francois shows. I wouldn't be worried about their running game. They've got some dandy's waiting behind Cook.

You draft geeks already have a four page thread on next year's draft?! The rookies have barely been fitted with helmets and you're slobbering over next year? Crazy, man. Let's focus on the upcoming season. Football games, ya know? :bounce:
