Mile High Report 2010 Free Agency Open Thread #2

in 2010 NFL Draft - Denver Broncos
Email
PrintLook right here for the latest news and info on the Bronco's Free Agency moves, as well as an up-to-date front page recap as we go along.
San Francisco offensive tackle Tony Pashos, Miami cornerback Nathan Jones will vist the Broncos later today
According to league source, Eagles free agent pass rusher Jason Babin on radar of Redskins, Broncos and Jaguars. Redskins apparently serious.
Rumor from a league source: Brandon Marshall, who's not expected to be bid on by Ravens, is of interest to the Seahawks.
Ravens' FA defensive lineman Justin Bannan to visit Broncos, they are setting something up with DE Dwan Edwards, per source.
Cleveland Browns free agent offensive lineman Rex Hadnot to visit the Denver Broncos later today, per a league source.
Chargers get a 2011 third-round pick that turns to a second-round pick based on Antonio Cromartie's play time and the Jets performance. Lions will acquire DT Corey Williams in trade. Would Jake Delhomme tickle your fancy? Well, he's been released, so maybe we could consider him for a Simms replacement. Since he is still owed $12.7 mil by the Panthers, maybe we get him for a freebie? Chargers release NT Jamal Williams. Interested? DB Dunta Robinson headed to Atlanta? Michael Lombardi of NFP says the Bears could be the early leaders for Julius Peppers. And it is confirmed, Bears get first shot at Peppers... LB Carlos Dansby will be visiting with the Dolphins. Didn't take long for them to take the lead there...
Also, be absolutely sure to add John Bena's MileHighReport Twitter if you aren't following him already. And since John has to sleep (not often mind you, since he is a polyphasic sleeper), consider adding Styg as well, as we forge into the wee hours of the night. See you all on the other side!

e Denver Broncos have set up a free agent visit with Baltimore Ravens veteran defensive lineman Justin Bannan, per a league source.
Bannan is a valuable, gritty interior lineman who has been productive for the Ravens in a rotation with Kelly Gregg and Haloti Ngata.
Bannan went to the University of Colorado.
Per a source, the Broncos are also going after Ravens free agent defensive lineman Dwan Edwards and are trying to set up a visit with the former Oregon State standout.
love the focus on point of attack
Early on, #Broncos linked to DE Jason Babin, DL Justin Bannan and DE Dwan Edwards
We’ll need a center, but with Hadnot, Denver’s still probably looking center via the draft at some point. Just maybe not Pouncey.
Add one or 2 of those guys & focus on a NT later maybe?
"Kwan Edwards is going to visit with Denver already. Well, that's not good"
I assume he mean Dwan. GET IT DONEEEE
who said that?

Well...there's your first problem
Sorry, but for a phone to be considered even functional, it has to be able to send and receive phone calls…so I’ll talk iphone with you when they actually get it on Verizon.
"Precipitation, which side are you on?

I can make and send phone calls with no problem and I never drop calls
It is never going to go to Verizon because Verizon does not support GSM and does not use sim cards. Verizon Uses CDMA technology that does not work with the iPhone. Apple would have to completely rebuild the phone for it to work on Verizon. You will be waiting forever. AT&T has very good service everywhere I go. You are probably someone who believes those Verizon commercials that are completely inaccurate. Verizon is a joke
by gnarlybroncodude on Mar 4, 2010 11:17 PM MST up reply actions
Not at all...I'm actually a technical guy
I work in IT. That’s how I feed my family.
All my opinions of cell phones and cell phone networks are based of personal experience trial and error. I’ve tried AT&T’s service and it blows…dropped calls, bad reception.
I don’t have those problems with Verizon ever….in the middle of BFE CO, KS, WA state. It just doesn’t compare. Sign me up as a believer in the commercials becasuse they jive with what I’ve seen first hand.
"Precipitation, which side are you on?
Are you on the rise? Are you falling down?
Let me know, Come on let's go, yeah

Oh ...and by the way
In my building my blackberry works all day long…iphone users…no reception in some areas and poor reception. EPIC FAIL
"Precipitation, which side are you on?
Are you on the rise? Are you falling down?
Let me know, Come on let's go, yeah

Yea Verizon paid a bunch of money to give service to people in the
the middle of nowhere. Shitty business move. Lets pay millions of dollars to give service to an area that 100 people line in. They are not getting a return on that investment. Go to pretty much every major city and AT&Ts service is just fine.
Oh and by the way I am not the biggest fan of AT&T as a company but their Cell service gets a bad rap when its not really that bad.
Also I was talking about only the phone and not the network. As a phone the iphone is far superior in every way over the blackberry
by gnarlybroncodude on Mar 4, 2010 11:28 PM MST up reply actions
Not in my experience
I’ll trust my eyes, my ears, and my hands over your typing all day every day. My verizon service works EVERYWHERE…middle of nowhere, Denver, Seattle, you name it and I get reception.

but let me just note for the record — that AT&T commercial that listed “BOZEMAN, MONTANA” as in their bigger-than-Verizon-gives-us-credit-for coverage area?
I freakin LIVE in Bozeman. They don’t even SELL iPhones here!
And why yes, I’m bitter. ; )

...and there you lost any IT credence I was gonna give you
do you work in sales?
PCs serve a purpose (gaming). Apples serve an overpriced purpose…or did. Now pretty much any media-arts superiority they had (through 3rd-party proprietary hardware…in addition to their own) has been caught up to by the PC world. At least in the digital media editing (music) I use.
Basically, if you don’t play video games, and you don’t do graphic design, and you don’t have to stay compatible with the other people, you’re best off (saving money) building a system yourself and using linux.

Dude I know Computers
everyone has their Preference. I used to swear by PCs until I got my first Mac. My PC used to always breakdown. My Mac always works and I never have issues. Oh and I do work in sales but not selling computers
by gnarlybroncodude on Mar 4, 2010 11:42 PM MST up reply actions
no I meant in sales in general...
I don’t have a preference. I use what works best for what I need. If I had the time to figure out linux on my netbook then I’d use it there—instead I just….acquire….the software I need.
On what you brought up:
PCs tend to break more, sure. The fix is always fairly easy though, and even if its hardware you’re looking at max $200 fix. Macs are slightly (again, I worked in IT for a bit) more reliable, but if they do break you need a apple-certified guy to fix it. And all their hardware’s proprietary, so if it’s a hardware issue and you’re past warranty enjoy paying an arm and a leg for a new one.

I also do not know any Graphic Design people
that use PCs. PC have a few areas where they are better. I personally think Apple is better. If I am in Graphic Design, Music Industry, Movies, things of these nature there is no way I own a PC
by gnarlybroncodude on Mar 4, 2010 11:44 PM MST up reply actions
That was my point.
PCs=required for gaming. Not required for anything else.
Macs=required for graphic design. Not required for anything else.
If you don’t need one of the above, you’ll be best off going the linux route. Or will be in a decade or so, at any rate :p

by gnarlybroncodude on Mar 4, 2010 11:49 PM MST up reply actions
that's the issue for me...
well that and video games :p
And that in my medium of choice (music) there’s now enough processing/RAM power in computers thanks to dual/quad core and really cheap, massive amounts of RAM that PCs can handle mixing and mastering…which is awesome because I don’t want to shell out a few grand just for a machine with Protools+required sound card.
But the proprietary-ness is what’s always made me mad with Apple. DRM in the iTunes store, using an OS based on an open source concept (Unix) yet never being open themselves, and the price point that comes with the brand (I paid $800 in fall ‘08 to upgrade my computer to better than a Mac Pro that would cost $3500 right now…and you can’t even GET my graphics card).

A strong, hard-nosed tackle, Tony Pashos added both experience and depth to the offensive line. He joined the 49ers after spending 4 seasons with the Baltimore Ravens (2003-06) and 2 seasons with the Jacksonville Jaguars (2007-08).
From the 9ers site. Only started 1 game last year tho.

Pashos scouting report
Tony Pashos has been a huge, dominant tackle. So why wasn’t he drafted higher? Slow feet that won’t allow him to block blitzing corners, safeties, and linebackers. So Baltimore will slide him over to Guard and Tony Pashos will be a dominant pass blocking Guard, who needs to work on his run blocking skills and won’t be seen leading many screens. It is possible Tony Pashos could play Right Tackle in the NFL.
probably G/RT backup
he was once signed by Jacksonville for 5 years 24 mill with 10 guaranteed. Thats a nice contract usually reserved for pretty good players

45 minutes ago from @Ravensinsider...
OWINGS MILLS, Md. — The Denver Broncos have set up a free agent visit with Baltimore Ravens veteran defensive lineman Justin Bannan, per a league source.
Bannan is a valuable, gritty interior lineman who has been productive for the Ravens in a rotation with Kelly Gregg and Haloti Ngata.
Bannan went to the University of Colorado.
Per a source, the Broncos are also going after Ravens free agent defensive lineman Dwan Edwards and are trying to set up a visit with the former Oregon State standout.
-—-
Sounds like we’re trying to set up a visit
found this and had to post it
From wiki:
He was hurt in the Preseason of 2008, and was forced to undergo season ending surgery. Dwan underwent a spinal fusion of the C3 and C4 vertabrae. The surgeon replaced one of his discs with a cadaver’s.
That’s a tough hombre.

I would
like Williams at 11 but not Morgan. He is a 4-3 player. I’m not sure if we draft Walton anymore if we get Hadnot and then Olsen is backup.
Morgan can play anywhere from the
outside shoulder of the center out. His first step is the best in the draft and makes him an immediate contributor on DL, which is tough to find. I like Williams too, but Morgan is rarer.

by gnarlybroncodude on Mar 5, 2010 12:10 AM MST up reply actions
He played between 277 and 282 at GT
That is also the biggest he seems to get, and I doubt he carries much more on that frame even with development. It is the one less than ideal thing about him, but as a tchnician he plays better than bigger guys. he is an attacking type of player for a 3-4, who can be moved all along the line. If he is a selection by the Broncos it will say a lot about how they want the DL to perform.
I think he weighed in at the combine at 272…

All
of the scouting reports say Morgan is best fitted for 4-3. I agree with gnarlybroncodude and I would take Graham over Morgan. If his potential pans out then we could have 2 dumvervil style of players
I love Brandon Graham
I think he is going to be a better version of Lamar Woodley. Dude has a nonstop motor. That performance he put in at the senior bowl was just amazing. He a solid regular season also. Dude is going to be coveted by 3-4 teams. Graham with be a 1st round pick for sure
by gnarlybroncodude on Mar 5, 2010 12:08 AM MST up reply actions
I'm not disagreeing with you or the scouting reports
and I like Graham as well, but from my own scouting, and some other scouts I have talked to, Morgan is ranked highly, even for 3-4 teams, despite his less than 300lb weight.
His explosiveness is the best in the draft, and if he slips, I think it will be like with Moreno last year, the Broncos won’t pass up on something that only comes around once in a while….

by gnarlybroncodude on Mar 5, 2010 12:01 AM MST up reply actions
my opinion
I think that alot of those signings are to increase competition and add flexibility to the draft. you never want to go into a draft “desperately needing” a certain position.
I don’t think anything we do in FA will necessarily mean one thing or another for the draft.
With the depth of this draft, I wouldn’t be suprised if McD/X prefer to trade down to all other options
I agree
but I also disagree. I think it increases competition and flexibility, but look at the free agents we picked up last year. McD loves to use verterans. Most of the players we got on defense in last years free agency started or were big contributers during the year.
oh for sure
And you will see again this year that some of these veterans he brings in will have a big role, but that will be due alot to the fact that rookies just generally dont make a major impact in their first year.
Signing a guy like Dwan Edwards wont change Denver’s plan to draft a DE, because they knew that there was an excellent chance the rookie wasnt going to make a major impact this year. If the guy they want is there and they feel he is a better player then say a WR in round 2 that they are also interested in….. I believe they will go with the DE over the WR, as oppose to saying: “well we got Dwan, so we can reach a bit for this receiver.”
I here you
I understand what you mean. You’re right. Those free agents won’t make us reach for anybody. But I do think that getting Hadnot will make The Broncos move Center a little bit lower on the list of needs. Instead of aiming for a C in round two maybe they go for DL in line 2 instead.
yah i agree
with the depth of this draft, they have a very good chance of landing a solid starter with that second round pick
I agree
McD loves competition for postions…His signings may have no bearing on his draft plan other than to create more position battles

with all these DL men visiting
any chance Vonnie Holliday will be back with the team?
Saw on twitter he would like to retire as a Bronco
Bleeding Orange & Blue in The Netherlands
just posted this on twitter too..
Burleson has signed with Detroit. Good move for the Lions. This would make a Marshall to Seattle trade more necessary for the Seahawks.
It definately weakens their receiver corps…wonder if they are the team that pulls the trigger
Bleeding Orange & Blue in The Netherlands
Seattle
is definitely my frontrunner to snag Marshall. Petey is going to take the gamble with Marshall
if...
the seahawks offer a contract to marshall, do you think the broncos will match it? I don’t think so, they’ll take the 1st rounder and be happy.

We’d get their pick at #4. Considering Bradford, Suh, and McCoy are all gone, who would we pick? I’d rather have the #14 pick back

I’d like it. Clausen played in a smiliar system at ND. I’ve heard he’s like Cutler though and I don’t know if McD would deal with that.
by higgyhoops12 on Mar 5, 2010 12:15 AM MST up reply actions
I've heard the same thing
I hope the reports of his bad attitude are false. If we do draft Clausen then I would assume that his attitude is fine since McD has always been big on having positive attitudes.
trade the tender
I think if Marshall goes to Seattle, it would be in a trade agreement between the two teams for something other then the pick at #6.
Most likely the # 14, potentially swapping second round picks or something as well if more teams are involved
Burlesons contracts: 5 years, 25 million, with 11 million guaranteed

good for him
he is a decent player who should get a nice shot in Detroit to do something

Panthers released DT Maake Kemoeatu, who tore his tore Achilles in late July. Kemoeatu is expected to be ready for training camp.
eh, 2008 he had 31 tackles, 2 passes deflected, and 1 FF. Looks like a big run stuffer though

Babbin is no loss.
Those that cant coach, compete!
Failing to plan is planning to fail.
All I want is 53 Rod Smiths. Is that asking too much????

Calijoefornia.
That's my guess as well.
I wonder if competing with the Broncos to get Babin fires him up a little…

Bruce Allen is apparently
squelching big name deals for the Redskins. He talked about wanting them to do a better job of looking for value… not by coincidence they end up targetting a player that McX is targetting. Last year our FAs were the definition of value.

Speed of the Tender deals
are the deals involving picks expected to move pretty slow this year? I would love to know what we are getting for Marshall sooner rather than later
"Some people think football is a matter of life and death. I assure you, it's much more serious than that."

the general idea behind the tenders
is to slow the movement of tendered players to a crawl. Patience is a must.

by the end of tomorrow he’ll be a seahawk!

two weeks is tolerable
i just dont want to wait til draft day and have all the teams jumping on tendered players during the draft. although that would be exciting in its own right
"Some people think football is a matter of life and death. I assure you, it's much more serious than that."

It could be tomorrow, it could be right before the draft...
I agree, would love to know whats going on, but patience is a must this year haha

does he have any other visits lined up?
it would be hard to think that many teams would let him leave town unsigned after working him out
"Some people think football is a matter of life and death. I assure you, it's much more serious than that."
"We laugh to stave off madness."
FA running backs
so if you could choose from mid tier running backs, who do you like? i would really like to bring one in to town, atleast for camp
rock cartwright
adrien peterson (chi)
justin fargas
kevin faulk
"Some people think football is a matter of life and death. I assure you, it's much more serious than that."
"We laugh to stave off madness."
we already signed J.J. Arrington today
so with Hillis, Buck, Moreno and like 2 or 3 RB’s on future contracts, I dont see the need for more camp fodder… I’d rather add more DL/OL signings for competition in camp.
Bleeding Orange & Blue in The Netherlands
hillis will be gone
i would not mind a good veteran in here, let moreno get his learn on
"Some people think football is a matter of life and death. I assure you, it's much more serious than that."

would like it if he would give us a discounted price
he might have to wear two helmets though, one more concussion he is goners

I got a tweet from a ravens insider
Dwan Edwards is expected to visit the Broncos, per a league source.
Expected is the key word, not confirmed, but i wood say 80-20%
by Calibroncoboy on Mar 5, 2010 1:05 AM MST up reply actions
you 'wood' would you?
i will take 80 percent any day
"Some people think football is a matter of life and death. I assure you, it's much more serious than that."

outta here people
let the good news fall throughout the night

I'm Out
Goodnight BroncoNation. Hopefully when I wake up, the Broncos will have made some moves. See ya!
So for those still around..
those players we’re visiting with.. were they all backups? or starters?
Bleeding Orange & Blue in The Netherlands
Those 5 guys appear to be some very good potential additions.
We need 2 more guys in the DL rotation. Thomas, Fields, McBean and Baker of the 7 look like real keepers. Peterson and Holliday will be on the bubble should we sign both Bannan and Edwards. I expect us to look strongly at Powell and Pedesaux (sp).
Even if we sign both Hadnot and Pashos, we need more. I could easily see Walton at #45 and another OG/OT or Olsen at #80. Both of these draft picks are versatile and can play both OC and OG. However, Kirk Morrison – ILB – from the Raiders for a #3 pick looks enticing. Martindale surely would be familiar with him and if he is traded for, should be a contributor.
Exciting stuff.
