Updated/Merged: Shanahan Rumors (Will He or Won't He?)

[Dirtbag59]

Shannahan seems to have a mixed record with his draft picks. Usually they're either really good or they can't make it in the league (Maurice Clarette). He seems to be able to develop quality offensive lines which is a huge plus for me. His ability though to develop late round running backs seemed to fall off a little near the end of his tenure with Denver.

I will say he's done a great job drafting LB's (Al Wilson, Ian Gold, and DJ Williams). He's also found a few good recievers (Rod Smith, Ed Mcaffery, Brandon Marshall, Eddie Royal, Tony Scheftler).

QB's always seemed to do well under Shannahan or at least over achieve. Greise, Plummer, and Cutler all seemed to have their best years under Shannahan.

The thing he absolutley seems to suck at is finding D-lineman (Javaris Moss). In fact I remember for the last few years the Bronco's were constantly looking for D-lineman to help fix their defense. Of course if he comes here that will have been taken care of.
