From all that was said the Broncos deal was not going to happen without the 2nd round pick and I still say it is in the air who got the best deal untill the season starts. Without the broncos deal we were looking at trading for maybe a first round pick if lucky or the best deal was the jets who offered three moderate/poor players in thie final contract years. The skins wanted Ellis but it was the Jets who turned them down .

Brunnell probably did overpay BUT compared with the other QB's out there available including Garcia and Waner Brunnell was the one with the fewest question marks. A number of other teams were waiting for him including Miami who ended trading a 2 or 3rd pick for AJ Freely from the Eagles.

The other aquisitions on the defence maybe will pan out or maybe wont but there are alot of things ther than just raw talent which contributes to performance on the field. There have been a number of players who step up in new systems and flourish and as for Springs over the likes of Plumber Springs give vetern leadership out there its all swings and roundabouts.
