he's not middle-of-the-pack. That's just hyperbole. The last three years he's ranked towards the top of the league in important categories. With very little around him. Last year he's top five with nothing around him You're exaggerating because you're frustrated about losing to Talib.

Listen it sucks to lose really good players. Guys that bring a certain element to your team. And honestly Aqib has really improved it's sad to say that the guy that shot himself in the butt 2 years ago is a much better person than the guy that came into the league but it's true. But at the end of the day any GM would have taken a v for Aqib at this point because everyone knew he was getting cut. To get anything out of the guy and allow him to go to a team that he wanted to play for was top-notch on Elway's part. I've said it before I don't trust him in the draft room but when it comes to recruiting when it comes to the way that he treats free agents La is still at the top of his game.
As much as I am a fan of Talib I must say we made the right decision. Compare his stats to Robys, Talib never had a season with more than 4 INTs here. I know a big part of that is because teams don't like challenging him but he is also 32...a very aged 32. Talib best years are behind him. He will do just fine with Wade Phillips but I think this decision was not just about money but actually looking toward the future with Roby.
I wouldn't be shocked at all if Roby tears it up. Roby had just as good of stats but with around 59% playing time. Lets give this guy a chance and trust in our GM.
Talib showed great character the way he left and I am also proud of Elway for not sending him to a team that he didn't want to go to, like the 49ers who were offering more.
THE biggest need is a QB. I trust that these moves are being made with that in mind.
