Broncos Close to Landing Wiegmann?

Posted Wed Mar 19th by

[Wiegmann]

Casey Wiegmann, former center for the Jets, Colts, Bears, and Chiefs (most recently), is close to signing with the Broncos per a league source. [Pro Football Talk]

At 34 years old, Wiegmann would be adding depth to the Broncos line, particularly with the recent departure of G/C Chris Myers. I’d rather pass, but it looks like this thing might actually happen. Meh. Stay tuned.

    A 34 year old backing up a 36 year old? I don’t see how this could possibly go wrong.

    Yeah, losing a guy that has played at multiple positions along our line, who knows our blocking style and personnel, and is quite a bit younger than Ben & Tom just keeps looking dumber and dumber as the days go on.

    Nothing against Wiegmann, but he’s got to learn our system and then we STILL need another backup at guard just to replace one guy we lost… and for only a 6th round pick.

    Correct me if I’m wrong, but it seems like we’ve added FA at all the positions we needed EXCEPT our two lines. They can’t be thinking about drafting those positions to fix ’08 can they? I mean, those players need at least two years before they are really ready to compete at this level (especially on the O-line)…

    Someone please help me out and explain this to me. :(

    This will be like bubble gum holding a leak for two years.

    Can’t do it Jon, because it doesn’t make any sense. He must really, really, really, like Crowder and Moss.

    If we stay put and Shanny takes a receiver at #12, I might have to go on a shooting spree.

    Kind of scary in the mile high city. From the outside looking in it seems like the wheels are falling off. That can happen when you are responsible for a lot and only have yourself and yes men around you for council. That makes me upset as a fan. Oh boy.
