The Plan at the moment:
Draft: Trade a 3rd and 6th this year to a team to move up and get a 2nd next year (this will happen).
Players I want:
Jake Ferguson (Jake Butt) or Jelani Woods or Jeremy Ruckert or Cade Otten (owen daniels) at TE- All 4th rd or later.
Troy Anderson LB 3rd/4th rd (yay Timmy!)
Neil Farrell, JR DL- run stuffer- bye purcell
He has garnered undue ire from Broncos fans over the years. It is hilarious that Broncos fans talk up Smith who I also love and forget how much he struggled with easy drops in his career. I still remember Smiths first touchdown and then being baffled by the way he would make circus catches one moment and drop easy balls the next. It got better later in his career but still happened.
DT for my money is the most dominant receiver to ever lace them up for our team. He was a matchup nightmare and those who dont acknowledge how much his presence opened up balls for others like Sanders are just being spiteful.
You just highlighted the key difference between Smith and DT. Smith got better throughout his career. DTs hands have gotten worse and worse. I don't think anyone has denied that he has been a dominant WR for us in the past. But the fact of the matter is that he is not that anymore. That doesn't mean anyone hates him or is spiteful of him. Just recognizing the reality of the situation.
When he was on his game he was dominant. I just don't think he has been on his game enough since Denver gave him $$. To me, he has left a lot on the field....with his size, speed, talent, he could have been one of the best.
I think DT will be approached about a pay cut or gone depending on how he finishes the year. Sander is the go to guy right now.
It’s a long season and DT will gel.
It's almost as if when you're tasked with some of the worst QB's in the league your performance goes down. I hate to break this to you, but Sanders' numbers went down, too. Oh, it's about the money? Well I would have been interested to see how well the other high priced WR's would have done in the same situation.
He’s going to blow up and it will be crickets in here.
Also, Jake Plummer sucks.
I would love to see this. He is one of my favorites. I think what a great attitude he has is often understated. Again he and Rod, two of the greats and obviously the two best in history of the Broncos were also the anti-diva or the anti typical receiver Persona if you will. That in and of itself with the production that he gave us has to be acknowledged.
