Broncos could be looking for depth at edge linebacker position

Some surprising news last week came when Mike Klis of 9News noted that the Denver Broncos had extended an offer to Aldon Smith. He opted to sign with the Dallas Cowboys, but the move to make an offer might just be a sign Denver is looking for more depth at the edge position.

The Broncos made a vet-minimum/incentive-laden offer to Smith, although it fell well short of the deal he got from the Cowboys. Given Smith’s checkered past, his agent Ron Slavin did well to get a one-year, $2 million contract from Dallas with the chance to make another $2 million in incentives.
