Yep, they swung a much Much better deal with Denver than Bill did with Atlanta (& a former protege, to add insult to insult).
And while Bill continues to add redundancy on top of redundancy, our OL & TE/FB rooms are not nearly championship-calibre...to put it kindly...
From a cap perspective, Sanu is a much better acquistion at WR. He's durable and has a decent cap hit in 2020 when the receiving corps will go through another revamping. Besides, Sanu is more of a big slot receiver than an outside the numbers guy. If Henry and Gordon are not out long, Sanders would be the redundant receiver.
The thing about all of this is that it would have been better to have just kept Demaryius Thomas and pass on the whole AB thing. Thomas would have been integrated with the receiving corps by now, have a specific role, and be a great option alongside Dorsett, Edelman, Harry and Meyers. I hope Sanu can find his place quickly.
