A Mock draft with trades some will like and some will not!!!

Yes I am back at it. I think that I am very excited that John Fox is Denver's Head Coach and I think that The Denver Broncos are going to be back in The Playoff Picture soon. I do think that Denver is going to switch back to a 4-3 Defense and this might cause some changes in Personnel. I also read on Cbssportsline.com that Jamaal Williams has been released!!! This makes me believe 100% that the 4-3 Defense is back.

I have to admit there is a chance that Orton does get traded. I don't agree with this option but it is definetely Possible , so here it goes.

Trades

1. Kyle Orton - Traded to the Vikings for a 2nd Round Pick and 6th. I think Orton would be a great fit in Minnesota with Adrian Peterson and a good defense. I think that there probably will be a couple of teams interested in Orton and Minnesota offers a extra 6th Round Pick to sweeten the deal.

2. Elvis Dumervil - Traded to New England for their 1st Round Pick(17th) and 4th(124th) New England needs a pass rushing OLB and have too many picks and need a great pass rusher to get them over the top.

3. Jabbar Gaffney - Traded to St Louis for a 5th Round Pick - McDaniels loves Gaffney and they will be reunited again.

Free Agents signed

1. Champ Bailey - signs his 4 year deal worth $41 million - Denver locks up it's Elite CB for the next 4 years.

2. Charles Johnson - DE - Carolina - signs a 4 year deal worth $21 million - Johnson had 11 Sacks last year for John Fox and will slide right into Denver's 4-3 Defense.

3. DeAngelo Williams - RB - Carolina - signs a 3 year deal worth $12 million - Williiams teams with Moreno to give Denver a true 1-2 punch. Buckhalter is cut or not resigned.

4. Donte Whitner - Safety - Buffalo - signs a 5 year deal worth $18 million - Whitner is only 25 and would be a great addition to Denver's Defense.

5. Ed Johnson - DT - Carolina - Signs a 3 year deal worth $5 million - Johnson is a good DT if he can keep clean. He has been with Foxy in Carolina.

2011 NFL DRAFT

1st Round Pick ------------------------------------------------------------------- Nick Fairley - DT - Auburn - 6'5" 305lbs - 56 Tackles and 12 Sacks. I think it is going to come down to Fairley or Bowers and it is a 60% chance that Fairley is available with Carolina maybe going AJ Green or DaQuan Bowers.

1st Round Pick(21st Pick)---------------------------------------------------- Gabe Carimi - OT - Wisconsin - 6'7" 327lbs - Denver drafts this Road Grader to play Right Tackle.

Denver's starting Defense.

Robert Ayers/Jeremy Beal(passing downs)------------Nick Fairley ------- Justin Bannan ------- Charles Johnson

Mario Haggan ------------------------------------ DJ Williams ----------------- Mason Foster

Champ Bailey -------------------------Donte Whitner ------ Quinton Carter ----------- Jimmy Smith

Final Thoughts

1. Yes we trade Dumervil but we draft Gabe Carimi and Andre Smith. Carimi will be a ROAD GRADER for years.

2. Charles Johnson is a player who Denver might end up with and had 11 Sacks in 2010.

3. Keeping Champ is a must and adding Jimmy Smith would be sick!!!!

4. I love the idea of strengthening both the Dline(Fairley) and Oline(Carimi). Denver needs to address the RT position.

5. I hope that Denver doesn't trade Orton but it is possible.


Go Broncos!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
