Safety isn’t going to be a need unless George Paton decides to make it one. The Broncos new general manager could create $10 million in cap space if the 33-year old Kareem Jackson is deemed expendable. Or he could decide Justin Simmons’ play doesn’t warrant a deal near or exceeding the top of the current market.
Either decision will create a rather huge hole in the Fangio defense.
To fill that need, Paton could sign John Johnson.
