No major moves in 08 yet ? and positions needed

The Denver Broncos have been know for the free agent signinng period and how agressive we can get during that time. This year nothing has happened yet, even though it is still early the Broncos need more help than alot of teams. At Defensive line, Offensive line, Safety posistion, linebacker, wide reciever, and a good returner for an awfull special teams last year minus the punt return for touchdown. For all those problems we simply can not aquire all of them in the draft. We need to start gettting aggresive in free agency or dont get any players at all. We are looking at two players right now though they are in Denver trying to get a deal done. But the only problem is one is a equally old and slow safety like nick fergueson became this year, Sammy Knight is his name. He played for the Jacksonville Jaguars, and he is now visiting Dove Valley. The only problem he is 32; we have not had two safeties under 30 for a while. Picking one up in a draft is a need because with John Lynch returning he can be a mentor to the safety drafted. For example if we are interested in Kenny Phillips and we aquire him in the first or second round John can mentor him. The other player we are looking at is backup reciever Keary Colbert and we just signed him, never heard of him right. We need a reciever to compliment Brandon Marshall, that would be speed, not a backup reciever who we can get for cheap. If the Denver Broncos want to compete next year we have to get younger and better players and not just pick up whatever is cheap and old, because it is cleary not working. As a Denver Broncos fan and a blogger i want to see the Broncos do bigger and better things next year, and it starts in free agency. Denver has a tendency to pick up no name players people who are not know well, I do not know why the reason is but it could be because we are saving up our money for the draft. Speaking of th edraft Denver has not been so popular with drafting talent. Denver last years was good in the draft but previous years when looking for offense we stumbled and none of them are with us now, the only offensive skilled franchise player i can say we have from the last 5 drafts is Brandon Marshall, Tony Scheffler, Selvin Young off the top of my head. We need to improve on how we draft. 

Some positions you should see Denver going after in free agency and in the Draft                                               DT, LB, WR, OL, FS/SS, RB(Denver can never have too many RBs), CB(If Foxworth leaves, and we can also have one for increased competition), FB(Cecil Sapp if in Free agency, if he is taken we will need a FB),Some of these can be filled in free agency, not alot but some. The rest we need to get through the NFL draft and be smart about it and look for other thing, not just how fast they ran the 40 or how many reps they did at bench press. We need to look at thier college carrer and what kind of person they are.

P.S. We need to sign Jason Elam back and hurry up and get him out of Free Agency he is to valuble to the Denver Broncos and to prove it. He set the Nfl record for a kicker in a year with 4 game tying or winning field goals in the last two minutes of play.
