Broncos CB Chris Harris Has Requested Trade or New Contract

If I'm reading his contract correctly he is very tradable for the broncos with less than a million in cap hit. The problem really is what is the value of a 28 year old cb at $8M for one year? 

If someone sees him as a pro bowler for the next 3 years and he agrees to a new deal, maybe a 4th?

He certainly fits a need. We are gonna be in nickel just as much as we are in 3-4 and 4-3 base defense and slot cornerback is a bigger hole for us than free safety. It would def allow us to focus strictly on d-line and o-line rounds 1 thru 3 with a safety tossed in somewhere.

He is great, both on the outside and in the nickel...  but two problems:

1) he excels in press/man primarily, not saying he isn't great in zone...  but, we have been a primarily zone defense.

2) he wants more money and that's why he wants a trade.

Would I be excited if we swung a deal?  Absolutely.  But it isn't happening.

I think if you bring a guy like him in, I'd like to think you start playing more man-to-man, but who knows.  It sure does get tiring seeing our dumba$$ DBs getting lost and leaving guys wide open because they're covering the wrong zone instead of having simple coverage assignments.

    • The good news is that we are pretty uniquely well established to address all of our needs this season. We have $14m real cap space, and something like $40m in trade deadline cap space. Not sure exactly how that works out. But, we have the room to absorb any bad contracts. With recent rule changes regarding retention, that went into effect this season, we now have a huge advantage in the trade market.  On top of that, while we do have obvious needs, we also have a glut of talent in certain areas that we struggle to find ice time for. We are over-stocked on scrappy talented lil-guys, strong defensively sound 3rd liners and shutdown left shot dmen. Whether it's a package or separate deals, idk. But, one of each from Stank/Blake/Nads, Erob/Carrier/KK/Jank, and Walker/Nystrom; throw in some 1st round picks (and frankly any other prospects they want) and we should be able to come out with a 1b to pair with Bussi and either a 2c with size or a 2c and size.   TL/DR We got the money, you got the stuff?
    • I don’t  think 6’4 was ever considered small or undersized. Baby hands tho, yes that was his thing That’s an interesting idea, like an optical illusion? Sounds like you have personal experience with this! 
    • in the 25' draft the Carolina Panthers had hired Brandt Tillis someone who actually understood how to build a successful team & build through the draft .  this team was yes mismanaged for years prior to Brandt Tillis joining the team in 25' & rarely done anything right in the draft outside occaionaly getting lucky on an UDFA such as Jalen Coker who's dad coincidentally happened to be a huge Carolina Panthers fan, hint hint  ...just saying
