Broncos Deal Justin Simmons to Lions in New Trade Proposal

And bench who exactly?

Delete… thought this was Simmons the DT. My bad. Carry on…

Depends on what the Lions would have to give up. He isn’t exactly a bargain at $14.5M. I’d flip them a bean but nothing premium for a high cost one year rental.

Are we sitting Iffy? I don’t like that idea.

@HiFidelity don’t flick their bean.

They wouldn’t have to sit anyone. They run a 4-2-5. He takes Gardner Johnson’s roster spot.

I think they can find room for an All Pro

Hard pass. Give me a CB1 not ANOTHER. DB.

CB1 ______ And Gilmore
CB2 Sutton and James
NB Branch
SS Iffy and B Joseph
FS Kerby and Walker.
(And thats with out possible signings of bringing our own guys back)
Jacobs and Dorsey are RFAs/ERFA.

Theres no room for him. This backfield isnt that bad if we get a true #1 CB

Sutton, Other CB, Branch, Iffy, Kerby.

What you are suggesting would be running a ton of dime, which I would love. Especially with a ++ war daddy NT… Don’t see us going that route though.

With Glenn coming back

Can see us doing another 1 year 7mil contract with Chauncey Gardner Johnson

He would be the 3rd safety with Iffy and Kerby

Also NB2 behind Branch.

Tracey pay cut like Romeo did this year…he’s backup S

No need for Simmons even tho he’s a good player

Give us Surtain instead

If you’re doing this you have to be open to playing a lot more dime. And I don’t inherently hate the idea. I just don’t think it’s happening.

We ran this all postseason

Wasn’t dime…just a steady rotation.

I disagree that they would have to do anything. Adding Simmons would mean a lot more depth and more competition in the db room. There are plenty of snaps

That said, I didn’t realize that Melifonwu essentially went from 0% participation to 100% participation in one week. Pretty remarkable

Iffy was one of the most idk 30 impactful NFL defenders in the back half. He was awesome. Massively impactful plays.

Why would a team trade a PB CB unless you hired a d-bag HC like Patrica?

Iffy has a PFF score of 85.6, that’s a pretty crazy high score.
Sewell is a 90.7, for reference.

The author isn’t aware that the team’s problems are a the CB position, not safety.

See this over and over

X team has a terrible defense, lets gin up a trade where they get defensive player - without any regard for scheme or need

It’s even worse when fans do it.

I think the author needs to trade their self for a better author

We need to fully upgrade that cornerback room. If our new cb1 got hurt we’d be right back to the same mess we had this season.
