[Palmer] The Broncos will not franchise tag DL Dre’Mont Jones per sources. Jones is just 26 and will have a lot of interest in free agency.

1. Hate to lose him but it’s the right choice

2. I like him but if the reports are true that he’s looking for close to 20 million a year than best of luck elsewhere my man.

3. Not sure why we didn’t ship him off at the trade deadline, George had to know he was going to price himself out of Denver

4. fail.

5. What’s the point of a great defense if they can’t rebuild a failing offense?

6. So without Dre’Mont, our d-line falls to DJ Jones(who is awesome), and a bunch of JAGs(not awesome). I get that his price tag got too high, but I really hope we have a solid plan for our front seven.

7. Bye bye thanks for the contributions the past 4 years

8. 3rd flair guy I lose 🙁 who will be next?

9. Reminds me of the Malik Jackson scenario a little. Hopefully he does big things but that price tag is a bit steep

10. I wAnT tO bE a DeNvEr BrOnCo – Dre’Mont

11. Dre isn’t a game changer from the Dend like some of the elite guys (De Buckener, Nick Bosa, cam Jordan etc) but he’s a hell of a beta. If he goes somewhere that has a legit pash rusher I think he’ll shine. Contract is too rich for us though, he’s more of a luxury atp

12. Comp. pick? 🙂

13. Bye bye

14. There is a slim chance we get a compensatory 3rd rounder or something like that if he walks
