Bradley Chubb gives terrifying description of Broncos' key free agent pickup

This was a huge offseason for the DenverBroncos. If it isn't the most important, behind the Peyton Manning signing, it's definitely the second most important.
And we know why too, right? You get Russell Wilson, a Super Bowl MVP quarterback in the offseason from the Seahawks in exchange for a few players and a few picks. That move kind of signified that they would go for it all this year.
However, Wilson wasn't the only huge addition they made this summer. People are forgetting that the Broncos are also going to have Randy Gregory out there, and he will help this team out a ton.
The former Dallas Cowboy signed a five-year $70 million contract with Denver this offseason, and you probably remember all of the drama that was involved.
Gregory had a deal ready to sign with the Cowboys, but when it came time to do so, his agent said that they did not like some of the things the contract was stating. By that time, the report had already been made via Twitter that Gregory would be returning to Dallas. Sometime later and there was news that he was now a Denver Bronco.
It confused everyone.
However, that has meaning for the Broncos. A lot of people hold the Cowboys to a high standard because of who they are. If Gregory chose Denver over them, the team he had been with for five years before, then you can only guess how highly he thought of the Broncos.
The Broncos think highly of him as well, and everyone within the organization cannot wait to see him play in a real football game. While we won't get to see that for two more weeks, Gregory is still impressing his teammates.
Bradley Chubb was asked what type of player Gregory looks like.
"Violent, man," Bradley Chubb answered when asked about what type of player he is seeing in Gregory. "You see those long arms, he can scratch his knees standing straight up, and he just uses those to his advantage and does a lot of great things with his length. His first step is amazing. He already got some reps so, I'm just excited to see him keep building off of it."
Gregory, Chubb, and Browning can be the best pass-rushing trio in the league if everything goes their way. And Chubb is right, we've seen Gregory in Dallas and he has a lot of potential that has yet to be tapped into.
Hopefully, under Broncos defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero Gregory can thrive. We haven't seen the style of defense he likes to use yet, mainly because this is his first time being a coordinator.
If Ejiro likes to blitz and rushes the passer, this defense can be so elite with Gregory now on the end. It already was, but now the skill is just getting even better.
