so, if they cut hm, he got his money already, right? sign him to a vet minimum deal and call it a day (yeah, right)

Correct. Regardless of him being cut, Denver has to pay him $20 million.

I just thought it was weird that he was already being called a Cap hit casualty.

If he is a cap casualty I have some serious concerns over his health.

Which mean we made the right call letting him go in FA.
But IF he's recovered from last year injury won't hurt bring him back for a look and see.

I'd bring him back on a friendly deal...can't hurt.
He's an up-grade over Cooper,knows the system...played well here.
We could still target an OG later in the draft.

Maybe this is why............If our top LG targets are gone by 50 and Bronco have drafted Nelson, why offer one our comp 4th to bring him back home. We can quickly restructure his deal to a lower number with a little more guarantee.

The Broncos are one of the front-runners to acquire Kirk Cousins. John Elway is going to push hard for him, and Cousins has expressed desire to play there. This mock draft will assume that Cousins goes to Denver.

If quarterback is out of the picture at No. 5 overall, I believe this pick will be Quenton Nelson. This may seem a bit too early for a guard, but Nelson is the best player in this class behind Saquon Barkley. Besides, the Commanders used the fifth-overall selection on Brandon Scherff several years ago, and that panned out. Denver desperately needs to improve its blocking, and Nelson is the only prospect worth taking at No. 5

concerns about his health means he might no longer be all that good

agreed.
but if he checks out healthy...he was really good when we had him.
Im not against taking a OG at 19...or in the mid-rounds....AND Im not against finding a veteran f/a to up-grade the OL.
If Leary is healthy and affordable,he is an up-grade over Cooper...who is coming off his 2nd knee injury....should be ready to return by...what...August?

all indications were that Coopers knee injury was minor and should have no permanent effects. Give him more time working with the others and he will be good enough.

Coming out of college, Leary was known to have a bad knee. That probably played a role in the Cowboys not signing him. And I would be cautious if he’s released this soon by Denver.
