Soko Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 37 minutes ago, paul-mac said: Only Talib and Ward were seen as big spashes though. Ware wasn't even a free agent, Dallas cut him and we picked him up rather than sign a FA pass rusher so he wouldn't affect the compensatory draft pick formula. Sanders was signed a couple of weeks into FA as a bargain player. His career took off once he joined Denver. So we're not asking who had the best free agency, when we say "who had the best splurge"... We're asking: which top spender saw this much improvement in year 1? EDIT: Plus, I'm not sure "big splashes" should count. They got paid a lot, but Jenkins just had his best year as a CB. Harrison is a pure NT that doesn't offer a pass rush. Vernon gets pressures but was never a top tier pass rusher. These guys all got huge deals and are thus "big splashes", but it's not like the Broncos group was a worse group of players.

SteelKing728 Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 they should have never let Linval Joseph walk after the 2013 season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was very good for the Giants and appears to have continued that for the Vikings. I like Harrison more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MKnight82 Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 I think the Vernon signing was smart. Always good to add talented pass rushers. I think Harrison is seriously overpaid as he's only a run stuffer in a league where teams are passing 60% of the time now. Jenkins is both overrated and overpaid IMO.

If they never let Linval Joseph walk then they never sign Snacks, then they never go 11-5 in 2016 and get bounced in the first round of the playoffs. Clearly letting Joseph walk was the right move Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
