Okung's overrated. Nothing special about him right now. He didn't really improve the Bronco's O-line, and that right there should raise some red flags.

Then again, they did have the worst RT of the 2016 season.

When your QB sucks not much you can do. Denver's problems are more than players on the line.

Siemian has potential. Only reason he didn't get sacked to a terrible rate was because of his mobility.

I can assure you every Bronco fan knows their line sucks, and should be first priority. Their RT was PFF's worst RT by a longshot, and their center is the only one who had a decent grade.

When you are let go by two teams (Seattle, Denver) with terrible lines it doesn't instill much confidence in him being an upgrade.

Seattle's philosophy doesn't involve investing in OL period, and, like Denver, doesn't have near the rosy cap situation we do.  Representing himself, his deal was really only a one year deal with a lot of smoke and mirrors and his option wasn't favorable to the Broncos going forward (similar to the Jags with Beachem).  He should not be option #1, but he should be firmly entrenched on the list of options.  He's still only 29/30 and has played in many big time football games.

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      Basically agree.  He is the one of that bunch that offers upgraded pass catching along with he is supposed to be kind of special.   Then you have the OL and the ideas that if they perform you can have JAG backs and still do well. So okay we could be fine.  But Brooks is important and to me that receiving element sets him apart.  So there sure is something riding on him.     What strikes me as incongruent is people over in Atlanta or those that follow them look at Penix with a third surgery and act like it is no big deal.      And we are on pins and needles over Brooks.  Either they should worry a lot more or we should worry a lot less.

      I usually go a game or two optimist over the consensus here but this is too early for me to say. I need to see some players on the field.  I am not feeling real optimistic though.

      Okay as a ‘take CJ’ fan I actually don’t obsess over CJ and Houston, contrary to the narrative.  But I thought I picked up some noise that his OL left a lot to be desired.    Not a single Beyce supporter would judge him harshly if he had a crappy OL. We all know that.    So be fair about it.  A QB needs to be protected.  Especially a guy that gets to his spot and wants to finish the play from there. Which CJ is.
