paul-mac Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 I make that 4 more spots available. We haven’t brought in a single external player between our 53 man roster and 10 filled PS spots. Paton clearly sticking with what he’s got Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broncofan Posted August 31, 2022 Author Share Posted August 31, 2022 (edited) It's pretty telling Agim didn't get claimed by a single other team - 6 other DL got claimed, including 2 by the Bears. Side note - the Bears squad is a holy mess. Making 6 claims on waiver day....ouch. Edited August 31, 2022 by Broncofan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m glad Paton and Hackett have the conviction to stick with what they’ve got. Would have been easy to push the panic button after the Bills game.

Muti has been a better player in theory than what he has ever shown in the NFL. We all know he can be an asset to a downhill rushing attack, but pass pro was always a disaster and I’m not convinced he was ever a good fit for outside zone. I really think they were trying to move him before the knee injury. Interesting that they kept him on the PS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than ILB / DL depth I agree if you've invested the time, and the guys are young, you're better off to stay the course. As you referenced, I think the last few Elway years, the roster depth just wasn't there. He was a wizard with UDFA and bargain FA's, but the Day 2 failures eventually mounted to the point where we saw such roster moves. Elway deserves our love and respect, but it's always good to have sober eyes and recognize the weaknesses. The best GM's learn from them and evolve. It's early but it's hard not to be excited about Paton's work so far. Finding guys like Yell-Turner, Vigil & Carter, it speaks well to him & the scouting department.

BroncoBruin Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 I still think they need to add a vet corner. The depth there is scary even if you’re excited about what Mathis could become. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Physical attributes alone would have someone grab him. Just 23, still learning the game, shows improvement every year and is quite possibly the strongest man in the NFL. Somebody would take a shot at him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
