Edge FAs who do you want

No need for another 3 tech with Simmons around

 

I have no idea if that led the league for just edge guys, but 25 seemed like a lot.

Front 7? Last we got 16 sacks from the front 7. And we actually got 7.5 from edge guys. I missed Brooks Reed's sack.

In 2019, we had 23 sacks from edge guys and 38 sacks from front 7 guys and we still complained about pass rush.

 

We only have 1 Jeffrey Simmons, right?

 

I think in 19’ it was more about inconsistency. Bulk sacks in some games, zero in others. Still wasn’t really enough pressure (maybe not just sacks) to beat some of the better teams, like chiefs and saints.

 

If I recall, things kinda of slowed when all of our CB's got hurt and then Landry kinda gassed because we play him 60-70 snaps a game instead of the 40-50 snaps where he is probably best as a pass rusher.

I'm not really making a point, just posting numbers. Like I said in my first post, sacks are kind of luck. I just think we need a lot of depth at both IDL and edge.

 

I would like to see one of them and a vet like Kerrigan and draft someone. When J-Rob gets some contracts re-done, the money situation should be fine. I cannot see us paying Butler and A. Jackson, over 24 million for them both.

Expect a few cuts and some contract tweaks

 

With the money we have I'd be happy with kerrigan and clowney, then draft one

 

Not sure why Von Miller would be released but if he is that is the only answer we should be considering.

 

32 when the season starts
Coming off season ending leg injury
Pending criminal investigation
Expensive
Broncos aren't competing any time soon

Lots of reasons to cut him, wouldn't be opposed to taking a look at him if it happens though.

*edit* Looks like he was cleared of charges this week.

 

Pending criminal Investigation is over. No charges will be filed.
