    Yeah, but Salave'a is good enough when healthy, and he doesn't ask for a lot of money at all.Good pickup for Denver.

    Nice pickup for Denver. Adams would have been a solid addition to most defensive lines, he's great against the run.

We have no depth at DT. I do like Golston though.

    Adams is a nice signing if he's used as a rotational player, but he's not an everydown guy anymore. He gets too tired and is drastically less effective the more he plays. I have a feeling that Denver is looking at him as a starter and if they are it's probably not a great idea.
