Free Agent Profile: Defensive Lineman Jarvis Green

It's not just Baltimore Raven defensive lineman the Broncos are interested in, the Patriots players are getting interest too. Of course, it wouldn't be a free agent period without McDaniels looking to steal away Belichek's talent.

The Broncos swindled Lonnie Paxton, Jabar Gaffney, and others last year; now it's Jarvis Green's turn. The former 4th round draft pick has seen his production drop a bit in recent years, but he could still add sufficient depth for the Broncos rotation.

Reportedly, the Broncos and Patriots are the last two teams in the running for the 8 year veteran. At 6'3", 285 pounds, he would be a bit undersized for the defensive guard we employed last year, but many signs are pointing towards McDaniels moving farther towards a traditional 3-4.

It's hard to figure out and I know Steve Nichols is already taking notes in an attempt to guess which way the Broncos will go. Either way, Jarvis Green is a solid pass rusher and could take some pressure off of Elvis Dumervil when it comes to QB pressure.

He is a role player, however, but signing both Green and Dwan Edwards would be a huge victory for the Broncos in this free agent market.

SB Nations Scouting Report:

Assets - Good athlete with a nice size-speed package. Has a quick first step and can get into the backfield.

Flaws - Mistake prone. One dimensional when rushing the QB.

Career Potential - Decent role player. (We like role players in Denver.  Right?)

"we like role players right?"

….I can’t remember the last time we have anything but a role player on the defensive line…..

In previous post..

IMO Darrel Reid and Jarvis Green are the same. I do not see Denver looking at under 300 lb DL for the 2010 FA.

Got anything to back that up? I don’t see that comparison much at all

A vision without a plan is just a dream. A plan without a vision is drudgery. But a vision with a plan can change the world.

Reid is not a pass rusher though.. At least he didn't appear that was in 2010.

Reid is a solid player, but not really a role player.

Having a player who can rush the QB

And using him and doom together situationally had to be interesting. Thanks for the article, Tim

Wouldn't call it an article per se. heheh

More of a, “hey look at this guy the Broncos are competing for”.

My Pats friend take on Jarvis

“Never really fully developed, looked like he would become a dominate player, but has never really became anything more than an emergency fill in guy”

Just food for thought, I like the Baltimore guys better, IMO

Boldin traded

Done deal: Arizona trades WR Anquan Boldin and a 2010 fifth-round pick to Baltimore for Ravens 2010 third- and fourth-round picks.

One less landing place for Marshall...

I guess that increase value a bit more.

I think that would decrease his value

Take one team out of the running, the bidding price gets lower.

Yeah, I thought about that after I hit submit....
