Per a source with knowledge of the situation, Anderson will visit the Broncos and the Titans. He has three other invitations.

He's 6'6", 285. Think we'd try to make him a DT? :lol:

I have little or no faith in a DT under 310 pounds to be able to hold the gap or LOS. When the OG and centers weigh 15-40 pounds more than you do you lose that battle more than half the time.

Maybe Denver needs to send an invitation to Japan, Sumo Wrestlers Wanted to play American Football. They love the NFL and the sport over there, so why not...if we can sign two big ass 400lbs. sumo wrestlers then we'll sure up our defensive line in a hurry!

:laugh:

ONE would probably be enough plus another DT that can move would do it..

Those guys would just be round around since our DE are not "huge" run stoppers..

BUT your correct not much would be run up the GUT, pardon the pun..

When I saw the title of this tread, my mind mixed up Jamaal Anderson with Jamal Lewis. I was like, "What!? That guy is still playing!?"

That's what FA is all about. So a guy didn't work out in the role that his former team’s style of play asked of him. You ask yourself, would he be more productive in the role that our style of play would require of him? If you think the answer is, “yes,” then you offer him a deal.

Ravage!!!

I don't think we signed or agreed to terms with any of them. Warren left to Houston without agreeing to terms or a contract and will likely sign with them. Anderson I also believed visited but likewise left without an agreement or contract in place. Next on the list is Derek Landri I believe...

in all fairness, a guy like jamal anderson really isn't much better than the mopes we have, if at all-- he's just somebody else's mope. . . that's the problem. . .

people always assume that just because a guy is someone different than the last chump, that he must be better. . . frequently isn't the case. . . i remember back in '08 when we signed guys like niko koutivides, marlon mccree and marquand manuel, boss bailey and whatever other chumps. . . almost EVERYBODY was bragging about our "free agent haul" :rolleyes:, and talking tough about how we'd "upgraded" all these positions on defense. . . ****in' nobody wanted to hear me talking about how mccree and manuel didn't upgrade shiat. . .

noooo. . . "these guys are all solid pros, what are you bitching about dog?"

:rolleyes::rolleyes:

yea, how'd that junk work out?

"upgrading" only happens when you replace guys with better talent-- it's not an automatic every time you churn your roster. . .

at least anderson and okoye have shown a LITTLE something in the NFL, but don't forget-- for every former first round disappoinment we think we can rehabilitate on the cheap, there's a fanbase out there wondering whether jarvis moss is worth bringing in. . . "this guy has a lot of talent-- he just needs to be in the right system". . . works out occasionally, but not very often. . .

also, we havn't signed any DTs that i know of-- and anderson's not a true tackle either, although i do believe he's played inside some the past year or so. . . jeremy jarmon is also an end. . . you could be right, though-- if they want vickerson playing at 285, they may well try masquerading some of these other dwarfs as tackles. . . really tall, scrawny tackles. . . man, i sure hope von miller can eat pulling guards and lead-blocking fullbacks for breakfast. . .


EDIT: sorry, looks like we did re-sign marcus thomas. . . . FWIW. . .

I joked back then that I was going to try out for LB. I would've been a 40 years old, 6'3," 150lbs rookie. Why not? I couldn't have been that much worst then the scrubs that they were grabbing off the street corner that year.

We'd have to actually sign him, first.

Just sayin, this dude was the 8th overall pick. You dont cut someone like that unless they have totally failed. You have to wonder what happened in Atl for them to dump him.
Jarvis Moss comes to mind.

Thats what Jamal is. Hes a 3rd down, 4-3 pass rushing DE who has no moves and has been a huge bust his entire career. I have no idea where folks are saying that this guy could play DT.
