Kyle Vanden Bosch - The Orange Mane

Clockwork Orange · 02-12-2006, 11:08 PM

He'll be a UFA on March 3rd. He's coming off of a breakout season in which he recorded 12.5 sacks and netted another 2 in the Pro Bowl tonight. He's 6'4, 278 and hasn't missed a game in 3 years. Sounds like just what the doctor ordered for the Broncos D-line. Should he be the Broncos target in free agency?

Clockwork Orange · 02-12-2006, 11:14 PM

Kick Pryce and his huge cap number to the curb and get Vanden Bosch in here. Christ, the guy had 66 tackles and 4 forced fumbles to go with those 12.5 sacks.

DBroncos4life · 02-12-2006, 11:20 PM

we should have signed him last year.

We can make up for that now. He's officially atop my want list.

And I figured our resident Nebraska homers would like this.

SportinOne · 02-12-2006, 11:24 PM

yeah.. it would be nice if we could pick him up.

I'd love to have TO, but i think a proven pass rushing DE would improve this team more than any WR could.

In fact it could be that missing piece... i mean when did we have any consistent pressure when we weren't all out blitzing?

I wanted him last year but it didn't happen. He has a great motor when he is heathly.

Well, that gives him a leg up on Pryce right there.

Sign him, re-sign Gerard Warren, draft Mathias Kiwanuka and we'll be set on the D-line for the forseeable future.

Bob's your Information Minister · 02-12-2006, 11:44 PM

I don't understand the hype on this guy.

He had a career year.

4 sacks in his other 35 career games.

I guess it's possible the light went on or something, since he's fairly young.

or he got over the two knee injuries to play like he should have before he got hurt.

Like your ideas I hope we can land Warren before FA if he hits market he will be tougher to resign him.

We can't draft in the top 5 every year Bob.

We are drafting at 22 and 30. BTW, where are you drafting?

Crushaholic · 02-13-2006, 12:54 AM

The little I watched of the Pro Bowl convinced me that Vanden Bosch is the guy we should covet. He would most likely come at a higher dollar-for-dollar value than any of the other guys we've discussed on this board because he would most likely be grateful to get on a playoff contending team...

Kaylore · 02-13-2006, 12:57 AM

He really impressed me. The pro bowl was the first game that I actually got to see him play in a game and I'm convinced. Unfortunately a lot of other teams with deeper pockets will be as well.

According to Sundquist, we're in better cap shape than we've been in for several years. If we've got enough money to take a hard look at Terrell Owens, we've got the money to take a run at a legit pass rusher.

Can we sign Warren as well?

No idea. But the Broncos reportedly approached Warren about negotiating a new deal a couple of months ago, so I imagine he's in their plans.

I'd rather get a legit DE then resign Warren if I had to choose I hope we can do both we will see what happens.

Vanden Bosch and John Abraham are the cream of the crop as far as free agent pass rushers go. Neither will come cheap.

Dudeskey · 02-13-2006, 01:42 AM

won't happen, 5 years $25 mil at the very least if they're lucky. The contract would have to be seriousy backloaded too...™

Jason in LA · 02-13-2006, 01:52 AM

On one of those sacks he beat Olando Pace. I didn't catch who he beat on the other one.

It doesn't matter. Everyone of those guys there is in the top five at their respective position.

Totally correct. If we couldn't afford Hayward last year and Berry the previous one how the hell are we gonna afford KVB this season, you've a choice folks, Warren or KVB there's no way this team can afford both.

Plus according to sources in Tennessee land he's a hair's breath from an extension.

You let Warren go then you can add about 40-50yds a game against our run D. Just remember which backs we face twice a year, LT and LJ.

Tibs · 02-13-2006, 05:10 AM

Vanden Bosch could very well sign with the Steelers. There's a starting spot there at RE for the taking, and many more SB championships on the horizon. For sure he'd take less money to play on a stellar D like the Steelers. One would think.
