- Are you sure that was not staged? ROMO helping anyone other than himself? Oh yeah, he helped other teams win when the chips were down (playoffs)

- I do admit his performance this year was much better, now he doesn't have his binkie - Dez Bryant, or the pacifier whathisname? & Ryan Matthews? can you say who gets the ball? Oh, I am sorry. I thought this was an Eagles thread. :mrgreen:

Mild all Winter and then yesterday we get hammered by snow. Two freeways closed this morning after multitudes of wrecks on the glacier that formed from all of it. UDOT is busy today salting everything but it might have been a better idea to have done it last night.....idiots. :shock:

I was never partial to the SLC part of Utah but I used to drive up to Southern Utah every now and then. It was so beautiful.

That's the way I see it Look at the Titans They helped themselves this off season The Bills got strong and the jets also. We were weakened. and the men we loss we will miss. before the season isover The coaches and Manning will have problems. I hope not but....

I think Barrow could have a break out year, and Nelson got a lot of snaps as a rookie. We have Barret and Davis in the wings too. I wouldn't mind getting a first or second round stud in case Danny goes down again, but I don't think we are hurting there either. I think we still have more talent top to bottom than any of them.

All are good players but all are OLB. that's the problem you play Outside all your career you just don't move to the inside and become Dick Butkus. I say it every year if you play an OLB on the inside they get hurt 9 times out of 10. and the past 3 Backers the broncos moved proved that pointg

After a monster free agent period for us last year, it seems kind of slow this season. We do have a ton of draft picks. Should be interesting.

Actually have too many draft picks. We have 76 players signed right now. If we draft all 10 selections that only leaves four UDFA signings. We've hit gold in the FA market the last decade. Signed 15 of them last year alone after the draft. Can't see them only signing four.

I would hope that we move the third or fourth for a higher pick next year and we see some cuts in the next two weeks.

I think they'll possibly use some to trade up and also try to use some to trade for next years picks. We are stuck with the Comp picks though as they can't be traded and that's 4 of the 9 we have left after trading our 4th rounder.

We swapped the fourth for a fifth next year. Oh yeah, we got the lowest rated C out of the deal too. The old style kicking tees the Ravens threw in were just a bonus

most reports say it's the same woman who accused him in 2012 only the report posted above says it's a second woman.

We do have a comp pick in the forth still so it may work out but 2 fourths would cost us more money with what we have to pay out.

21 pages for Denver fans? Yikes, way to rep your team! :up:
For the DEN fan who suggested the Broncos are "the team to beat"??? Ummm it's only April but I applaud your ah, enthusiasm. Nothing that bold from me until maybe January if ever...
Don't have time to read all 21 pages so sorry if it's been discussed... LOTS of fans (esp Colts fans - not me) want R Wayne to sign w/ DEN, to play w/ Peyton, finish what could be the last year for both of them together. FYI, R Wayne can not pass a physical as of now but is expected to be healthy by the start of camp / Aug. Personally, I just wish he'd retire a Colt, thoughts?

Not if we hadn't traded for Gino Gradkowski that will be paid 1.542 million against the cap and 121K in dead money. Plus the other retreads we've signed.

I don't know how much playing time Wayne would get with the Broncos current receivers. And it isn't a position of need right now for us while other positions are. Plus we're up against the cap wall right now anyway unless someone gets cut. Wayne ought to retire...and as a Colt...but those guys don't ever want to quit.

Agreed UT, we'll see how it turns out, wish your DEN squad well this season (ex when they play in Indy). For the record, those hybrid half orange, half blue 18 jerseys, I abhor them...

Money - Perfect timing - Just before the draft... You have to think that Winston, his agent and legal team knew of this... They likely were hit with a DHL with the Complaint a few days before it was filed - recommending that a settlement be reached... Ya gotta like her lawyers - pretty sharp...

Did he do what was alleged...? It is not very clear, but Winston certainly admitted to errors that he made that he would not repeat if he could have a do-over... I personally believe the answer is "yes" in the sense of "eternal truths" - but that does not matter in this day and age... All that matters Is the allegation - and the ability to collect...


Hey VA. Yup you got that right and now the agent is saying this was expected. May be a reason he wants to spend draft night with the family rather than in Chicago

She'll get money eventually as that's the only way it will go away without dragging on for years. I wonder what that will do to his draft stock if anything?
