Next Year...

[58crash]

I see a team that will improve at Running the football .. I feel that Elway will put a huge amount of his time in one area..I believe of all the area we need to improve it is our Running game it needs to be vastly improved the help our D stay more fresher ..

If Clady and Ty can stay healthy this alone would be boon . Yes the OL was part of the problem but I expect Hillman gone . I see Elway going after help in the draft . I don't think we will see a bigger improvement than the Running Game on the team ...I am positive that will be a mission the staff will be at full froth of mouth with !!! Bull Dog style

We need a WR core to meet mister Rod Smith and Easy Ed and get some Routs down ... and the back shoulder throw needs to be worked on .........................

Wait a minute - there's a next year?

Wait a minute - there's a next year?

According to NEHOMER it started yesterday

 

[Mingo]

No - this year continues through next year - and history will not be able to tell the two years apart because the same thing is going to happen.

Elway: 'Our goal is to keep defense together'

 

[randymon]

come on already! This is still sinking in. Lets enjoy the feeling for at least a couple weeks before we start throwing all our speculations and GM decisions to the wind. Life is short! Smell the roses guys. Hell, the parade and festivities are still going on!!!

Elway: 'Our goal is to keep defense together'

This is why it's important to get that player conveyor belt working well. That way we have a continuous influx of cheaper talent to replace talent that's become too expensive.

yes but when you got a D like this you try and keep it in tact

You keep what you can intact. But in this day and age, you have to keep the budget too. The best LONG TERM approach is to keep a blend of peak veterans with a continuous influx of younger, cheaper talent. It's a tried and true formula that keeps good defenses good over the long haul.

 

[Mingo]

Some guys are going to overpay for Bronco players - and underpay some of their own - the key is knowing which is which - Elway has been pretty good at that.

Alex Effing Gibbs would know who to sign.

Mingo You are right I would add Trevathan now IMO the better spend for bang if you really think it we offered Jackson and he said he wanted payed ..

 

[SpringStein]

I'm a big Trev fan and he has been great for us. But his injury history would prevent me from offering him a major contract. I think he is gone and will get more from someone who sees green grass at Dove Valley.

Yup I agree with this. Honestly I still can't believe that he and Marshall both held together this year with the injuries they had and the surgeries they had this past year. Then to play like they did was just down right impressive. If we signed Trevathan I would be thinking about that though of can he stand up for 2 straight years of wear and tear in the middle on that knee? Most guys that have that kind of surgery especially in the NFL end up having a 2nd injury at some point either to the other knee because they overtrained that one while the other was healing or because it was ignored while focusing on getting the other up to speed.

I will say this SS we already got a pretty good MLB'er stashed away(Zaire Anderson) on the practice Squad ...how the sam hell did we get him all this way and no one not steal him ?

 

[58crash]

Two years in a row and we keep starters stashed away on the practice squad.... Sneaky .............

 

[58crash]

I see two starters on the practice Squad Manning really talked up this young man Taylor Jordan after the SB... so I got some real hope he sticks on the roster next year .
