So -- what about Derek Anderson? He was released today, former pro-bowler 2-3 years ago - and he's YOUNG - 26 years old. Struggled the last year or two, but the potential is there...

Right now Bradford may get drafted #1, and Clausen may not be a franchise QB. It may make sense to draft Okung or Davis as a Tackle, and then use a FA like Derek Anderson to compete with Campbell.. Of course there will be other teams interested we'd have to compete with (and we don't seem to lock up FA's anymore..).

Derek Anderson was a one hit wonder. He will never have that type of success again.

I would bring him in he's worth a look a decent long ball thrower.

I'd at least interview him. If he doesn't make it out of camp, oh well.

Derek Anderson sucks. I mean, seriously, he has no touch or accuracy on his short passes(Browns game against us in 2008) and just chucks it up there for grabs when he's pressured(basing this on a preseason game interception).

If Anderson will sign cheap then bring him in. Competition at all positions is good. Good luck to him in making the team, though.

The Broncos just signed Jamal Williams as their NT. With Justin Bannan and Jarvis Green as DEs, man that is one tough front line, that is if they stay healthy all year.

I think drafting oline now worry about QB is for sure the way to go. I wouldnt mind trying to get Anderson for competition, but i got to think that he could land with a team that gives him a better chance at starting.

Yeah broncos have quietly been makin ALOT of moves to improve for 2010.
On the Derek Anderson front, why would he be an upgrade over bringing rex grossman in? Both Anderson and grossman suck but at least grossman has played in this offense.

Rex has a better haircut. It would go over better with dcs fickle fans!
