Now I'm confused...
If Jon was 1st, Darin 2nd, and DooPoo is gay…then why is DooPoo talking about ‘poon’ down below? Is that some kind of gay code? I’m not hip to these things.

It might play out like the Bart Scott

ESPN is reporting it, and it supports a Don Banks story from earlier
that Dawkins was tired of being underpaid in Philly

Man, I am getting worried about Dawkins
I think his agent is trying to get Philly to up their deal

No, but seems like Schefter would have had this if it was true
After seeing Scott play the Ravens versus the Jets, I have a sneaky feeling that Dawkins agent is telling Dawkins to take the visit and force Philly to up the ante.

It is probably one of those....
We like your offer, but we want to stay in Philly. We’re going to call them right now and see if they are going to have a final offer. If not, you have yourself a new Denver Bronco.
McDaniels was the best option for this team. You CAN NOT overfocus on the defense and possibley have Jeremy Bates not progress with Cutler. McDaniels will watch over both sides of the ball, especially the O, while letting a defensive guy handle the D along with an intelligent GM.

I was surprised to see Dawkins visiting Denver
but he has been underpaid. I suspect that the Eagles really don’t want him back THAT much

I agree
I think the eagles are ok with letting him leave, well hopefully.

Its all coming downt the length of the deal
I’ll bet The broncos are offering 3 years, but he eagles are offereing more for one year. And denver is probably being a harder ass than normal, because they want the Eagles to remember their name on draft day…
yay specualtion!

He is the only reporting he will visit on saturday,

by gnarlybroncodude on Feb 27, 2009 4:18 PM MST up reply actions
I'm not.
The Eagles are like the Bills and Pistons. Get to that 2nd to last game and fail. Also, a player of Dawkins intelligence is going to be looking around the league and looking where the up and coming teams are. He knows what McDaniels can do on offense. Plus, Nolan isn’t your average D coordinator that we’ve had around here lately.
There is upside to Denver.
McDaniels was the best option for this team. You CAN NOT overfocus on the defense and possibley have Jeremy Bates not progress with Cutler. McDaniels will watch over both sides of the ball, especially the O, while letting a defensive guy handle the D along with an intelligent GM.

Free agent Jabari Greer is reportedly drawing interest from the Lions, Bucs, Falcons, and Broncos.
It’s also possible that he’ll re-sign with Buffalo. Greer has to be wearing a wide smile after Dominique Foxworth’s four-year, $28 million deal earlier in the day.
OK, I've started having dreams about the draft. Is that bad? A couple of weeks ago, I dreamed that we traded down to the #18 pick and drafted Chris Wells. (Zappa was pissed off.) Then last night I dreamed that we passed on Knowshon Moreno to get Maualuga, and Knowshon went to the Chargers. (Zappa was pissed off again.) Is it worse that I'm dreaming about the draft, or that I'm dreaming about Zappa?

Long Snapper
Is the long snapper a quarterback for those special team situations he is in? If so the signing makes a lot of sense. Also he would come in knowing the special teams system we are likely to use. Also his effect on the morale and attitude of the locker room would have already been known by the Jedi.
Has the DP reported it?
If them or Shefter report it I will feel better.
I have read up on Hill too and he seems to be a good fit for us and he has been getting props fro Kirwin and Tim Ryan. I do rank their opinions!
Those that cant coach, compete!
Failing to plan is planning to fail.

I don’t think you dump Stoke. He’s money and he still plays at a high level. I’m sure he will be there in training camp.
I don’t want breakaway speed. I want break-some-poor-fool-as-I-bowl-you-over power getting 6 yards off a play that should have been stopped for 2 at most.
Not necessarily....
Anderson is a good STer and he would be good in a 4 WR set.
I think this will be our WR corps, with Stokley still our slot guy.
Jedi likes to keep guys fresh, and will rotate no3, 4 and 5 WRs consistently. It is almost like they are 3a, 3b, 3c etc….lots of room for everyone!

I think Stokely’s time is probably up. If we’re going to be utilizing the back more, he might become expendable. Then again, we don’t know what is going to happen under a new regime.
McDaniels was the best option for this team. You CAN NOT overfocus on the defense and possibley have Jeremy Bates not progress with Cutler. McDaniels will watch over both sides of the ball, especially the O, while letting a defensive guy handle the D along with an intelligent GM.

OK, I've started having dreams about the draft. Is that bad? A couple of weeks ago, I dreamed that we traded down to the #18 pick and drafted Chris Wells. (Zappa was pissed off.)

so from rotoworld
NFL Network’s Michael Lombardi reports that Texans WR David Anderson has signed an offer sheet with the Broncos.
The Texans will have a chance to match, but the particulars aren’t yet known. This news, along with the signing of Jabar Gaffney, does not bode well for Brandon Stokley’s future in Denver.
They better keep Brandon, he is way better then Anderson and Gaffney

Honestly,
I know I’ll probably be attacked for this; however, I have my concerns about bringing in a 35 year old safety.
Especilaly at this stage in our defensive development, I really don’t think it’d do a whole lot of good. Sure he’d be a good leader and mentor…but he’s just going to leave another void in a year or two. Let’s go young and let those guys grow together.
If we get Dawkins then fine…if not, no big deal.

McDaniels was the best option for this team. You CAN NOT overfocus on the defense and possibley have Jeremy Bates not progress with Cutler. McDaniels will watch over both sides of the ball, especially the O, while letting a defensive guy handle the D along with an intelligent GM.

It would be a 7th rounder
David Anderson is a low tender restricted free agent. So if the Texans don’t match our offer, then we have to give them a draft pick that is corresponding to the round in which the player was originally drafted…which DA was drafted in the 7th round!

From Scout.com
Positives- The Texans have the best wide receiver on the planet in Andre Johnson. Johnson can go over the middle, he’s a deep threat, and even a very good blocker. Kevin Walter is a great second option, as there is no harder worker and he runs great routes. Anderson has the chance to be a smaller Walter, as he runs good routes and has solid hands. Davis is a pure deep threat with game-breaking speed.
Negatives- It’s tough to find negatives with this group. Walter isn’t a great deep threat, and he isn’t always consistent. Anderson is smallish and doesn’t create a great target over the middle, and Davis has inconsistent hands and doesn’t do well over the middle.
Overall- Few groups of receivers in the NFL are much better, as this is clearly the strength of the Texans.
Solution- It’s always good to have more talent to create more competition, but Houston seems to be fine with the group they have.

So anyway, what’s the deal with signing two more runningbacks (and runningbacks who haven’t proven themselves yet nonetheless)? You don’t have to explain Buckhalter to me, I’ve gotten a chance to watch him and he plays well, but if you think about it, it’s not the STUD guy, it’s more of the same “type” of crop we have. Is the plan to just purge all runningbacks?

Doesn’t matter. Remember fellas, these are free agents.
None of them are at the peak of their game AND 22.
These players are not means to an end, they are quick fixes while we build through the draft. Of todays acquisitions, I would be surprised if even half are full time starters.
Remember, their not the end – they are the means to an end (when mixed with the youth of the draft).

i’m telling you, C Jax at #2 could be major. He’s FAST so he could stretch the field opposite of Marsh. Then you have Royal just carving up the middle of the open D

That year..
C. Jax got hurt, and NE stacked their WR core. It basically made Jax disposable. Not sure, but if he didn’t get injured it might have been different.
That was the reason...
He left on good terms but injury crueled him for his roster spot. I think Jedi likes him as he was responsible in his selection, but BB would have been responsible with the shape of the rsoter with Pioli…..it is sickening how much we all know aboyt the Patriots now….its like some subliminal recruiting tool having Jedi and Pioli come to our division!!!

Untrue.
Buckhalter has upside. Worst case scenario is that he wont make the team. Not much lost there.

To me, this feels like
we are really getting some big hitters, instead of taking gambles on could-bes and has-beens. This is the first off-season I’ve been able to follow without Shanahan and it feels like I’ve been settling for thrift-store paper plates this whole time when I should have just gone out and bought the fine china, paid for it, and gotten into a freakin’ Super Bowl. This FA period feels like McD is having us picked up in a limo, where Shanahan seems like a used car salesman trying to spruce up the rust buckets so we’d think (and our opponents would think) they were cherry.

I'm not a fan of moving him back.
He’s proven that he has RB skills and can do a lot things for the offense. He played FB at Arkansas mostly because Felix Jones and Darren McFadden were there, but still managed to be a productive guy. He certainly isn’t a big-time road grader of a blocker, so his obvious upside is what he does with the ball in his hands, and I think that’s best capitalized as HB. That being said, being a HB coming into what we assume is going to be a NE-style offense means you have to do lots of different things. I think the Buckhalter signing is the blueprint for the types of RBs we’re going to be targeting in the McDaniels regime. I think Hillis can excel in a similar capacity and would want him to stay there. I was all for drafting a RB until we signed Arrington and Buckhalter.

Davis lacks speed, but he knows how to play inside linebacker in a 3-4 defense. We doubt he would be guaranteed a starting job after struggling often over the last two years.

DAWKINS FINALLY A DONE DEAL IN DENVER
Posted by Mike Florio: Friday, February 27, 2009 9:29 PM
After some conflicting reports on whether veteran safety Brian Dawkins had done a deal with the Denver Broncos, we’re told that Dawkins finally has signed a contract to join the Broncos.
Dawkins was drafted by the Eagles way back in 1996, and he spent 13 seasons in Philly.
Seeing him in anything other than an Eagles uniform will be as bizarre as seeing Brett Favre as a Jet or Mike Vick as a member of the Mean Machine.
http://blogs.nbcsports.com/home/archives/2009/02/dawkins-finally-a-done-deal-in.html
Yes but
Seeing him in anything other than an Eagles uniform will be as bizarre as seeing Brett Favre as a Jet
Dawkins was one of the very best in the NFL last year. I welcome him to Denver.
You can observe a lot just by watching. Yogi Berra
Talk about a crazy day.
Trying to read through everything. Like Dawkins coming here. He will definatly bring some leadership to our “hybrid” defense while we transition to a 3-4. My one question is, was he injured recently with the Eagles?
Gaffney is a nice add to our receiving corp. He will help others in dealing with McDaniels’ offense and play-calling. I know Leach is our LS, however it is good to have a backup and I heard someone say he plays center too.
I don’t really know anything about the other players we signed like the RBs and S. As long as they help us progress in some way I’ll be happy.

That is 8 new guys. Lets start looking at who might get the door.
McDaniels was the best option for this team. You CAN NOT overfocus on the defense and possibley have Jeremy Bates not progress with Cutler. McDaniels will watch over both sides of the ball, especially the O, while letting a defensive guy handle the D along with an intelligent GM.

I don't think so really.
He really struggled the last two years in a Browns uniform. Hopefully a change of scenery will do him good.

Still no DE or DT though
which is surprising. Are they still bringing in that guy from SF for a visit, I think his name is Ronald Fields
by gnarlybroncodude on Feb 27, 2009 8:10 PM MST reply actions
My guess is....
They are saving the DE/DT for the draft. Those guys are too expensive to find in FA. I could be wrong, but that’s what I see shaping up.
Raji? oh god please.
How do you prevent the opposing pitcher from tearing you superfluous new be-hind while he is on the mound? Simple: Swing a bat....and if that don't work, swing more bat!

Raji would be nice
but he will not produce as a rookie. Name the DE or DT rookie that had a good season his rookie year and actually helped the team?
by gnarlybroncodude on Feb 27, 2009 8:19 PM MST up reply actions
That is a bad idea
D-line rookies never produce their first year. They should not be relying on a bunch of rookies at that position
by gnarlybroncodude on Feb 27, 2009 8:19 PM MST up reply actions
we need 5-6 d linemen at least...I think we'll have to make some FA moves.

we'll have to count on some rookies to produce too.

True but they cannot
rely on just rookies, they need to bring in some proven vets

I agree
I just don’t think it will be a big name person like Canty. I have not heard that Igor has any visits line up, maybe we could still get him for cheap
by gnarlybroncodude on Feb 27, 2009 8:26 PM MST up reply actions
Igor
Struggled last year on the Chargers but was a pretty good 3-4 DE before that. Hopefully the Broncos will take a look at him and if they offer a contract, make it very “Prove yourself again” laden.

here is some interesting info about the Haynesworth contract
ESPN.com’s Chris Mortensen reports that Albert Haynesworth’s deal with the Redskins is effectively for four years, $48 million.
The $100 million figure looks good to his agent’s potential clients, but Haynesworth isn’t likely to see the last half of the contract. Haynesworth is due a $29 million “poison pill” in salary and bonuses in 2013, his age 32 season. It’s possible that the contract will be renegotiated down the road, but the important number for Haynesworth is the $41 million in guarantees.

I think that
FA will come here now, if you establish this type of mentality.
McDaniels was the best option for this team. You CAN NOT overfocus on the defense and possibley have Jeremy Bates not progress with Cutler. McDaniels will watch over both sides of the ball, especially the O, while letting a defensive guy handle the D along with an intelligent GM.

Which 2 FA signings do you like the best so far?
I am leaning towards Dawkins and Arrington right now.
Lonnie Paxton
Jabar Gaffney
Renaldo Hill
Correll Buckhalter
JJ Arrington
Andra Davis
Brian Dawkins
Victor Frankl:
What man actually needs is not a tensionless state but rather the striving and struggling for some goal worthy of him. What he needs is not the discharge of tension at any cost, but the call of a potential meaning waiting to be fulfilled by him.
Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms – to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.
It has to be Dawkins....and then
I am not sure. Not thrilled with any of the other ones. I hope they prove me wrong and step up.
I was talking to a friend that is a Browns fans. Says Davis is the slowest linebacker in the league, but can make tackles. He should be used situationally and against the run. We will see how that goes.

how many of these players are clearly an upgrade over last years starters?
Only Dawkins.

Hill is an upgrade.
Gaffney is better than DJack and stays healthy. Buckhalter and Arrington are healthy and fit McD’s system. You’re not going to sign a pro bowler at each position. You have to realize how terrible we were at times last year.
McDaniels was the best option for this team. You CAN NOT overfocus on the defense and possibley have Jeremy Bates not progress with Cutler. McDaniels will watch over both sides of the ball, especially the O, while letting a defensive guy handle the D along with an intelligent GM.

Right...
But we weren’t terrible at any of the positions that we signed except for two (LB and S)…and actually I don’t think we were that bad at LB compared to DL and DB.
Also…I didn’t consider DJack a starter.

ahem...
I meant three (LB and two S).

I would say all of them...
Hill is way better than any of the safetys we had. Dawkins is a no brainer. Buckholter and JJ bring multi facted talkents to the table, much the same way Hillis does, and more than the other backs we have do. Paxton is a LS AND a center, Anderson is a great value pick up and has more upside than D Jack and is a young guy that also has great value on special teams. And, Andra Davis is slow, but so is Larsen…and he is a very good hitter and tackler…..it would have been nice to have tacklers on our team. I would take Davis over Webster any day.
So, yeah, all upgrades I would say.
Not Pro Bowlers, but they are smart, hard nosed players with upside that can help us wwight our ship.
I was initially underwhelmed, but wiuth research, I am liking all the picks a lot better!
Those that cant coach, compete!
Failing to plan is planning to fail.
