Yeah, that looked very promising: Good deal for Okung, good deal for us.

Okung's always been a good OT when healthy, which he has been this year, so his awful performance is a big part of what's pushing me toward believing Barone's the problem. That, the similar regressions of former Pro Bowlers Evan Mathis, Louis Vasquez and Ryan Clady, plus the fact Barone was coaching our equally terrible offensive lines under John Fox while Kubiak and Dennison were rebuilding the Ravens line from nothing just as they did in Houston.

No smoking gun, so I'm not trying to scapegoat him, but... there's an awful lot of very consistent circumstantial evidence.

Would have to say OT, OG, ILB, and then TE are our needs. ILB seems to be deep in this class. I like Jarrad Davis at ILB but he'd likely have to be selected in the 1st to get him

Davis keeps getting hurt, he might last to somewhere in 2nd round.

TE is super deep this draft, especially for the position. But, Kubiak doesn't look for Jordan Leggett and Jeremy Sprinkle...unfortunately, he's more of an Owen Daniels guy. So taking a Kubiak TE would be a mistake earlier than 5th round.

I just like the way Davis plays the position and I think he'd fit right in with our defense. Foster and Cunningham would be great additions as well if we take an ILB high.

Those who think Denver needs a TE may or may not be surprised to hear that Julius Thomas might be available this offseason.

Who'd of thunk it?

We also need more depth at DE. It's a good thing we have cap room and the FA class of offensive linemen is deep.

Elway will def target OL. But how many will fit the offense scheme?

He will definitely target the line, but it may he through fa.

He always fills holes in FA. Never has a need going into draft due to lack of depth. Quality at a position is diff.

Can we draft an offensive coordinator?

Okung and Stephens really looked like good signings. Elway doesn't coach....
