Denver now has a surplus of edge rushers. They have Von Miller, Shaq Barrett and now Bradley Chubb. There's a chance Shane Ray is available. I wouldn't hesitate to move a player or a future pick for Shane Ray. The guy is a very talented player and an ideal fit at the Leo position.

I hope Lynch gives his buddy Elway a call.

Barrett just signed his RFA tender and they have a decision to make on Ray's 5th year option. One of them may very well get moved but at what price ? If they let Ray play out his contract and pass on the option year, what will he fetch on the open market as that affects comp pick value, would it be greater than what he might fetch in a trade in the coming few months ?

I would be interested but it would depend on the asking price.

But it's all good because we've got Eli Harold and Arik Armstead, right?!

He wouldn't make much difference on our team. If he was legit Denver wouldn't have needed to draft another pass rusher. I'd take him over armstead but wouldn't expect more than 2 or 3 sacks on the year

I don't think Armstead would count in that matrix. Sneeze is the better all around option than Ray's limited run defense.

Cant say he'd be worth it without knowing the price. If his wrist doesnt hold up he can basically call it a career or if it does he may realize his potential. But there are some big IFs and Denver to this point has positioned itself like they arent expecting much

Whenever I start at sentence using his last name auto correct wants to change it to something else.

Saw someone use "sneeze" in the thread where he was introduced so I started using it. Lazy.

He had eight sacks in 2016.

When was the last time we had someone with that many sacks?

Fowler is another guy who is in a similar situation as Ray. He's another edge to keep an eye on:

Fowler always seems to have his name in the news for the wrong reason. No thanks. Heck if you look him up, the first photo you see is his mug shot.

Lol, wut. Denver was in position to take the best defensive player in the draft, DE1, and a top 3 pass rusher in any draft.

Denver has a lot of needs as well. Again, if they were set at pass rush they'd have taken someone else... But they arent
