Re: My Only Question?

Looking past this year we could (maybe) end with as high as the #2 pick
overall (if we wait until the '02 draft) and with Denver's track record,
that is not out the question. Also right now we are sitting here with over
$11 Million available and possibly $15-$16 mil if E. Williams opts out of
hisv 2001 contract. I know we have some players to sign, but look down in
Texas @ who may be available in a year or two. (Hint he won a RING this
YEAR!!)
