The Denver Broncos have an interest in LB Jon Beason, according to The Denver Post ... because the Broncos want to sign everybody.
any offer he gets or at least improve on theirs if he finds more money elsewhere. Seems as though teams are checking in on him for a value signing as opposed to overpay to get it done.
but the guy Foxie drafted was a terrific stud..A healthy stud..This Beason is more of a crapshoot health-wise and to invest big dollars in him? Not very wise. I'd love to have him back, but at what "guaranteed money" price?
window is closing fast. Manning turns 38 in a few weeks and you figure he's got another year or 2 left before he retires. Unless you think Brock Osweiler is the future, the Broncos will be all about the here and now and will probably have a ton of dead money on their cap once the Manning run is done. Think somewhere similar to the Colts in 2011, when Manning was out and the Colts decided to more or less just pack it in and start over (and they were fortunate that Andrew Luck was waiting there for them). The 2015 or 2016 Broncos will be a train wreck, but that's not what Elway is worried about right now.
They have to be up against the cap? Especially after their signings yesterday.
They can always pay a lot up front and spread the money out for future years. I figure by the time they reach "cap hell" we'll John Elway wants to spend more time with his family and leaves.
shaping up as a another Reese disaster. We lost Joseph for a very fair contrcat amount to the Vikes and he wanted to be here. Now if we lose Beason to John Fox (his original mentor) in Denver. Our defense has lost the two best players on last years good defense. Now the challenged DC Fewell will have much less to work with. Last year it was the neglected Ol. This year it could be the front seven on defense. Get ready for a long season followed by the firing of Reese at its end if this comes to pass.
BTW - for all you "next man up" guys, my fear isn't Hankins getting more snaps...its Kuhn getting some or a lot if our other 32+ year old DTs break down.
The guy became the instant leader and tied the entire unit together. Reese better not get cute and lose such an important player on this team. For those they think he's so easily replaced must not have been watching the stumblin and bumblin replacing Pierce.
are at the top of the heap right now looking to stay there and win it all while Peyton is still there. They will do what is necessary to get a few players to make that happen now. Fox is a great HC and defensive guy. He knows Beason very well. if Fox wants him as the final piece we could definitely lose him to them.
seeing what his market value is. If the Giants offered him $4 million/year and the Broncos or whoever offer $8 million, for example, how could we blame him for taking it?
Which means unlike all of the other players who had agents that were allowed to talk to other teams since this past Saturday, Beason's window to talk to others JUST STARTED. He needs to find his worth and may have even been told to do so from the Giants so long as he gives first dibs to match. This is not uncommon.
First off, it's possible that Beason leaves, but to assume he's gone just because he's visiting the Broncos??? Secondly, the Giants put a value on Beason and he thought he could get more in the open market. Good for him, but you can't get on the Giants for not caving to his demands. Lastly, I still think we will have a chance to match and I think we would go up a bit from our offer to retain him, but there needs to be another offer for us to go up.
With his injury history. At Denver he has to compete for a job (and remember he lost an OLB position to Chase Blackburn last year) and he has to impress a new set of coaches. If he gets hurt Denver would be quick to unload him.
With the Giants the coaches already love him and he has a starting job waiting for him. Reese should be able to outbid Denver or any other team for reasonable money.

Well all that made zero sense...
Which part of the two sentences didn't you understand. Â

"Last years good defense", are you on crack? The issue concerning Joseph is he was not a premier DT, he was not the same caliber as Jenkins. Beason did a great job with what he had which included an inability to cover receivers.
The most accurate thing you pointed out was Feweel could not muster a decent defense due to his inability to put the best players on the field in the best position to stop opposing offenses! Again, JMO.
Keep in mind, Jon Beason played for Broncos head coach John Fox in Carolina -- Beason was the Panthers’ first-round pick in 2007

Pretty much
i expect my MLB to blanket McCoy on 2-way goes, and cover gronkowski 1on1, or I'll find someone who can
And they're rumored to get Ware as well. Would they even have the room to get Beason on top of that?
They can always pay a lot up front and spread the money out for future years. I figure by the time they reach "cap hell" we'll John Elway wants to spend more time with his family and leaves.
Hope we get good news on the latter two...
Holy hyperbole!
I swear some of you can't wait to lower the boom on this regime. Reports of a player taking a shit means it's time to kill Reese.
"If he doesn't take the vet minimum, let him walk."
But I guess the feature is a little broken and actual quotations kill the HTML somehow.
It would be a bit disconcerting if he didn't garner any interest elsewhere, no?
I think he's still a priority and I think part of letting LJ walk was probably to be sure we could retain Beason.
BTW - for all you "next man up" guys, my fear isn't Hankins getting more snaps...its Kuhn getting some or a lot if our other 32+ year old DTs break down.
But I really hope we keep him
Beason is acting as his own agent.

HE'S GONNA LEAVE. REASE IS DOING THE WORST JOBV EVER HE SHOULD HAVE HAD BESIN SIGNED A WEEK AGO WHAT IS HE DOING!!!
With the Giants the coaches already love him and he has a starting job waiting for him. Reese should be able to outbid Denver or any other team for reasonable money.
