Smizzy Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Broncos | Team expected to trade with Lions Mon, 25 Feb 2008 16:27:13 -0800 The Rocky Mountain News reports the Denver Broncos are in deep discussions with the Detroit Lions about trading for DL Shaun Rogers. It is uncertain what the Broncos would give up in return for Rogers, but the deal is expected to be done as early as Monday, Feb. 25, or Tuesday, Feb. 26. It's ok...we don't need a NT to run the 3-4 defense. Look how well we have run it the last 2 seasons. Drob is a pro bowl NT ,why would we need Rogers?

I'll believe it when I see it done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

will Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Its cool. This trade is probably a precurser for the Roy Williams to NYJ for Robertson and our 3rd round pick; which is the precurser for the Coles to JAX for Peterson; which is the precurser for the Vilma to Rams for their third round draft pick.

Actually, the Lions denied they were trading Roy Williams, Jaxonville is about to trade for Troy Williamson, and if we really can only get a 3rd rounder for Vilma, that would blow.

BroadwayJoe12 Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 This is the paradox of getting annoyed when there's no information regarding our team. People complain when there aren't any rumors, but when they get some vague rumor from a beatwriter and it doesn't turn out to be true everyone gets upset. I was hoping for rogers too, but we never had any legit information saying vilma was going to be traded to the lions for sure. If rogers isn't on the jets than i'm sure there is going to be a reason; if mangini wanted this player badly enough, i'm sure he would tell tanny to find a way to do it. Just because other rumors are coming out we can't get annoyed at our FO until the offseason is over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Jacksonville trades for Troy Williamson, that doesn't mean they won't trade for Coles. Williamson is a complete bust. I'd be surprised if he even makes the team.

Yes, but what was there to do last offseason?? We've gone over this a few times; there was no one to bring in. Both steinbach and davis got huge contract and thomas signed the first day because he wanted to go to the pats. There wasn't that many people available for us to get, however we did bring in anrews and gay; it's not our fault that andrews was franchised as it seemed we were ready to make a huge run at him, which would have pleased everyone.

The Jets are going to pay Faneca (who wasn't as good as Davis last year) more than he got. Thats what happens when your GM is a short signed moron.

Jaguars Set To Acquire WR Troy Williamson Monday, February 25th 2008, 9:08 pm by Gary Grund According to the Pioneer Press, the Jaguars have agreed in principle to trade a second-day pick for Vikings wide receiver Troy Williamson.

It seems as though he had every intention of signing andrews, but who in there right mind saw him getting franchised? I think bringing him in prior to this season showed tremendous foresight.

Or they could possibly draft an OG like chilo rachal, heath benedict (i think he'll make a hell of an OG) or Mike McGlyn and he would do an even better job than Faneca at one eigth the price and make our line into an actual strength of our team.

Dude, if you think people are losing their minds now over rumors, wait 'til free agency begins and "the accountant" hasn't hadned out $300 million worth of new contracts within the first two hours. It's the same thing every off-season. Two or three players announce FA deals and that automatically means that the Jets didn't try to sigh those players and are currently not contacting any agents to sign the players that are left. It's riddiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How this joke of a FO did nothing as the team fell apart last offseason, but you'd rather kill the messenger as usual. Clueless. Unilke you I'll refrain from name calling (what else is new). I'd rather see fiscal responsibility and bringing in multiple quality players as opposed to blowing the whole pile of cash on two guys. That's just me though. I give this FO a pass on last off-season as it was the first they had with any money to play with. If they don't make some moves this off-season I'll be pissed. Unlike some lunatics though, I'll actually wait and see what happens before I judge the results. It's amazing to me that some Jet fans are clueless and don't look at the money Woody has spent since getting here. He hasn't spent it wisely (thanks Herm and Terry) but he has spent a TON of cash on this team. Yet some fools call him cheap because he doesn't spend tens of millions every single off-season. Nice logic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaumerJet Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Or maybe Mangini and Tannenbaum did want him,but maybe the Broncos wanted him more Or the Broncos want Vilma & this is the Bait they intend to use for trade: Rogers & Denver's #1 (2nd overall) For Vilma & New York's #1 (6th overall) & New York's #3 (67th Overall) Now that would make a little more sense!
