I'd love Vernon. He's underrated. Not sure what he'd cost.

I think they'll look for an older vet on the d line. They went after B. Mebane a few years back. I think they'll go after him again.

Guess who drafted Olivier Vernon in the 3rd round in 2012!?

You guessed it! Jeff Ireland.

24.5 sacks over the past 3 years

Cam before his extension had 28 sacks over 3 years

Cam resigned at 5 years for 33.8 Mill Guaranteed and up to 60 Mill

averaging anywhere from 7-12 million a season.

If you could somehow get Vernon to agree to a deal that pays anywhere from 7-9 million a season I would pull the trigger and find a way to make the money work. However in FA teams compete and overpay all the time...Vernon may be a pipe dream.

CSP pussied out on that situation.


With La'el, we would've made the playoffs.

Our safety play was actually good this year, it could be better as for as takeaways go. Everything else I could agree with.

I wouldn't mind seeing Brian Quick in a Saints uniform. He still has good size and decent speed. He just hasn't had anyone to throw to him his whole career. Saints could get him for pretty cheap.

Dick Butkus and Lawrence Taylor in their prime.
Also, Doug Atkins, Deacon Jones, Alan Page and Merlin Olsen.

Oh yes, I'm old. But I did get to see all of them play.

Manny Ramirez would be a cheap and solid option at guard.

I think Denver has 4 or 5 defensive free agents. I wouldn't be upset at 1 or 2 especially if 1 is Danny Trevathan or Malik Jackson

A role player in.a D that features Von Miller, Demarcus Ware, Shane Ray, Jonathan Trevathan among others at LB alone... Would never benefit us. Their supporting cast could never be matched.
