Saturday is a Critical Target
This guy is the key to our offense. Obviously Manning is the real key, but Saturday can accelerate the learning curve of our offensive line immensely. Even at his age he's a superior player to JD Walton, and he's a general at the point of attack. He's been Manning's right hand man his entire career. Team's have thrown every scheme, look, and blitz at the Colts to try to stop Manning. Saturday has seen them all. You can't fool this guy. There's a reason that the Packers want him to come in and take over Green Bay's Oline.
The Broncos interior line was horrible at pass blocking last season. Bringing in Saturday would be the first step in improving that area. Add Manning's quick release and accuracy into the mix, and the Broncos are ready start putting some points up on the board again. We have to keep Manning upright. I'd be shocked if Elway doesn't see this as a critical signing. Yes, I think that Beadles also needs to be replaced, but it starts in the middle. If we aren't going to move Franklin to guard and let Beadles and Harris compete at right tackle like we've all been screaming for, at least we can shore up the center position. I have no doubt that Manning would love to have his trusted sidekick calling out the line adjustments once again. Saturday is one guy that the Broncos need to overpay for if that's what it takes to give Peyton his security blanket back. Hopefully we see an announcement that Jeff Saturday is a Denver Bronco by the end of the day.
