Rushmore?TwitterFacebookRedditPocketFlipboardEmailHere’s an off-season question to ponder if there ever was one - if there was a Mount Rushmore of all-time Denver defenders, who would be up there?The guys on 1st & 10 at 10 on Orange & Blue 760 opened up their segment today with Benjamin Allbright tackling that very question. They were giving him a hard time because he said it would be difficult to put Steve Atwater up there, not because he’s not a Hall of Fame level defender, but because there are too many great Denver defenders to choose from. While he took some good natured ribbing from Mr. Atwater himself, Allbright makes an interesting point. No matter how you slice it Dre’Mont Jones Denver Broncos Jersey , you’re likely making an egregious omission if you try to narrow it down to just four.There’s the old-time greats like Louis Wright, Karl Mecklenburg, Tom Jackson, and Randy Gradishar; then guys like Steve Atwater, Champ Bailey, and Von Miller who are all Hall of Fame players, regardless of the fact that the committee continues ignore Atwater’s bid.So who would your top four be? Maybe it’s someone I forgot to mention. I don’t think you can go wrong no matter who you put up there Brendan Langley Jersey , but I agree with Ryan Edwards, maybe we just build another mountain to fit them all! It would be inaccurate to say you can’t win a Super Bowl by banking heavily on free agency.But it is rare.John Clayton of the points out that the Broncos’ generous spending helped them to a Super Bowl 50 title, otherwise the big winners in March seldom duplicate that success in January and February.According to Clayton, of the 49 highest-paid players in 2016 free agency, only 14 remain on the teams that signed them. Only 22 of the top 60 highest-paid in 2017 are still with the teams that made those splashes. And last year’s unrestricted free agent class produced just two Pro Bowlers, neither of them starters (special teamers Andre Roberts and Michael Thomas, and Roberts has already changed teams again).Last week served as a reminder that some of the biggest deals often unravel quickly Bradley Chubb Jersey , with the Panthers cutting left tackle Matt Kalil after two years of a five-year, $55 million deal, the Buccaneers trading DeSean Jackson, and two previous prime free agent signings being traded for each other (Olivier Vernon and Kevin Zeitler swapping their Browns and Giants addresses).There are still plenty of teams doing big business in free agency, and it’s hard to argue that the Jets in particular haven’t improved with the addition of C.J. Mosley and Le'Veon Bell. But many teams are also overspending on players who are not among the best at their positions, because fewer great players are making their way to the open market at all.
