Broncos Won't Hesitate To Dump Javon

Re: Broncos Won't Hesitate To Dump Javon

From PFT:
. In 2000 and 2001, the Broncos selected Deltha O'Neal and Willie Middlebrooks, respectively, in round one. Both were later traded out of town for a bag of moldy peanuts and a block of lukewarm cheese.

This article is a little goofy.

For instance, Deltha O'Neal was traded to the Bengals for (sound familiar?) a second round pick, just what Shanny gave up to get JWalk. 2nd round picks aren't peanuts and cheese, last time I looked.

O'Neal made the Pro Bowl and had a bunch of picks.

Most observers felt Shanahan mis-handled O'Neal when he was with the Broncs. He actually tried to shift him to WR before he traded him to Cincy. Shanahan is obsessed with getting shut-down corners and marquee recievers. He seems to constantly miss in his quest for both commodities.

JWalk had about a 10% chance of ever getting paid on his Denver deal. I actually feel sorry for the guy. He really is pretty lame & it's gonna cost him a lot of jack. A lot of the fans that hate the guy are going to get their wish. He needs to get a capable agent and let him sign his 3rd deal.

That, and shut his mouth, before he talks his way out of the league.

I'm in agreement on that contract. Drew has to be laughing his ass off.

[RashanGary]

Thompson is probably shaking his head thinking how dumb can Walker could possibly be to put up a big stink and then sign that fugazi.

No offense to any retards out there but Javon Walker is a complete retard.

Old news people, things are slow and we need to post

[jack's smirking revenge]

I can't see them pulling the cord on Javon after one year, but given his history with the Packers, I can see them being cautious with the WR.

How funny would it be if the Broncos dumped JWalk after giving us such a sweet draft deal and if the players we drafted as a result of that sweet deal turned out to be NFL studs? Shanny wouldn't look like much of a genius then, would he?

The way the donkeys dumps clarrett like he was un undrafted FA I could easily see them canning the traitor walker. He better put up and shut up this season or he might find out what the veteran's minimum is in 2007.

[The Leaper]

Clarett clearly didn't have NFL ability. Walker does. That will make it a little harder to dump Javon.

[jack's smirking revenge]

Actually, we don't know what kind of NFL ability Walker has coming back from his major injury. Nobody does. If he lost some speed due to his injury, he'll just be another average receiver.

If Walker returns to pro-bowl form, it will be in 2007.

My guess is that he will a somewhat diminished player. But all you folks predicting a dire future for Walker are full of it. He has 4 or 5 years left in the league, he'll make some decent money.

I agree. I don't think he'll come back with a flashy 2006 and it'll probably take some time to get back to near-normal playing ability. He'll be a round for a few more years.

But our new rookies should be around for a lot longer than JWalk.

Ya, he's been getting paid peanuts and warm cheese till now, right?

[Guiness]

I'd be surprised if he landed himself as an FA next year.

I tend to think he'll come back, but not all the way. The ponys will look at the money he slated to earn in '07 ($10mil) and tell him it's time to renegotiate.

JW will know he'll look a fool if he's cut, so he will. How much he gets, and how much is put in year 7 of his contract will be highly dependant on his performance next year.

That's just the way I see it. The really interesting part is if he returns to Pro Bowl form in '06, what will happen? Will they give him the $10mil payday than? I'm not sure - does any receiver in the league have a cap number that high?

I'm sure that Paddy O'Halloran, err..I mean Shamrock, can tell us if any do.

Yes, but decent money is not 10% of your teams cap. That's brett favre money. Base salary plus bonuses pays him like 12 mil that year.

I also think this will be the most likely outcome. And then it will be interesting to watch how his agent tries to spin the paycut he has to take as being a wonderful deal for Javon.
