we are not going to get any top level Free Agents after all we just finished with a 2-14 record. So therefore I have compilled a list of the FA's that would solve a lot of problems for us.
First we need O-Line help and the Bentley's and Hutchinson's of the world want to win which is something we can't offer right now. Also getting big mashers is not something you need in a zone blocking scheme you need movement guys. You also want guys with time left in their careers not guys you have to replace in two years.
So here my OL wants:
Sean Mahan OG 6-3 301 25 years old UFA from the Bucs.
Fits the mold of the Broncos OL. Espn says about him he has very good foot quickness and good running ability. Movement is more his game than power. He has a great first step and he takes good angles to his blocks. When he has an angle block he shows that he can get movement on the line of scrimmage. He shows that he is capable of pulling to lead the toss play and he does a good job of finding a moving target. perfect Zone scheme guy.
Next,
Kevin Schaffer OT 6-5 290 26 years old UFA from the Falcons
First he is already fimiliar with the system from Gibbs being a consultant. again this from ESPN:has good overall athletic ability, quickness and foot speed. He plays hard, has a good work ethic and plays with a bad attitude.
Next
Mike Pearson OT 6-7 297 25 years old UFA from the Jags
First of he is being taken away from a division team so it is a plus. Second he is a movement guy in a offense that wants mashers. ESPN says He is a very good athlete and he has overall good movement skills. He has very good foot quickness and he has decent running ability. He takes a good quick first step and he takes good angles to his blocks. He does an excellent job with cut off blocks on the backside of plays and he shows up as a blocker downfield.
With these moves moving Pitts inside to Guard and Hodgdon and Pitts to battle for center our OL is better and are together for a while.
On to the Rest
First we need another rec. and it looks as if we have identified him in Kevin Walter since I heard that Kubiak was going to be the coach I wanted a Mcaffrey type but Jurevicius is a pipe dream and Proehl is to old so bring on
Kevin Walter WR 6-3 214 24 years old UFA from the Bengals
ESPN says is a possession slot receiver who has excellent size and good overall speed.He has good hands, he catches the ball away from his body and he is a big target in the passing game. He is a good route runner who can find the open area in the zone. He is good on short to intermediate routes, he is not afraid to go over the middle and he has excellent concentration on the ball to make the hard catch. He uses his body to shield off defenders and in his a physical mismatch against smaller DB's. He will win most jump ball situations and he is an excellent red zone target.
This would give us A WR corp of AJ, Mathis, Walter, Gaffney(assuming we resign him) and Armstrong or Starling.
That's enough for now I'll do the defense later This will leave our needs as back-up RB or Reggie Bush, A TE that can take teams out of the Cover 2 and a #2 or 3 QB.
