Denver Broncos have made some of Free agent signatures In recent weeks, but not in the positions that some fans might think are the most important. The ball carrier could be the greatest need for broncos.
Some may cite the need for Denver for a wide receiver and find the current field of attractive free agents, especially with regard to experience. The question is whether it is logical to sign a ball carrier or a wide receiver at this stage or if it is preferable to wait after the project.
One thing to keep in mind is that if the broncos are waiting after the project to sign free agents more, they will not count for the compensatory choice formula. Broncos could be online to Two selections of seventh roundbased on projections at On the capBut these choices are not guaranteed.
However, a greater reason not to sign a player before the draft, because we do not know how Draft’s painting could fall. Broncos could very well find someone who can help earlier than late in both posts.
Regarding the ball carrier, it is a deep class in the project, and the chances are good that the Broncos find an immediate contributor. In addition, broncos do not necessarily need a back on everyone, but one to associate with Jaleel McLaughlin, who is a good back to have in tandem with another, while Audric Estemates will always have his chance to show that he can be a quality depth.
While the Running Back-Aggent class is currently standing, the tastes of JK Dobbins, Cam Akers and Trey Sermon are available, but all three played on low-cost offers last season. In addition, their previous teams did not bring them back for one reason or another. It is worth wondering if these players can really provide help if their previous teams chose not to keep them.
Personally, I would be open to sign Dobbins, but not before After The project. If broncos can find a ball carrier who can help immediately, the signing of Dobbins is not as necessary, although I can see the case to have it for the competition for the depth behind McLaughlin and a choice of recovery.
Regarding the wide receiver, it is easy to get caught in the names available, but again, there are probably reasons why these players have not been signed. Elijah Moore was not bad last year, but he did not quite meet expectations.
Broncos have receptors such as Troy Franklin and Devaughn Vele, who have a lot of room for improvement, but the question is whether Moore would really provide an upgrade compared to one or the other of the players. And even if I considered Moore as a player who could be worth a one -year agreement, if the broncos believe that Franklin and Vele can improve, it is probably preferable to stick to them.
As for veterans such as Keenan Allen, Tyler Lockett and Amari Cooper, all are older players, and they could try to obtain agreements similar to what Stefon Diggs obtained Patriots from New England. I do not see that broncos are preparing to give one of them an agreement of three years worth more than $ 60 million, even if it means that Denver would be on the hook for a single season like the Patriots are with Diggs.
If the broncos are ready to pay an older one to receive large funds, I see them more likely to extend Courtland Sutton than to pay someone like Allen, Cooper or Lockett.
Again, this does not mean that broncos should not sign a free agent, but they can wait after the project to make such a decision. They can also take their time to see how Franklin and Vele develop, then revisit the idea as the training camp approaches.
As we have seen in the past, the movements of the list are far from being finalized once the project will take place. The Broncos added players after the draft and near the training camp while they assess the list and its progress. There is no need to rush into an agreement at the moment.
