Jules: Tell 'em, Vincent.
Vincent: A (Eddie) Royale with cheese.
Jules: A (Eddie) Royale with cheese! You know why they call it that?
Brett: Because of the metric system?
Jules: Check out the big brain on Brett! You're a smart mother******. That's right. The metric system.

Mustard AND Pierce?
very interesting.
I’m going to take it less multiple TE sets and more true fullback with Hillis/Pitman? Or is Leach going to play some TE? :)

Styg50 was right about Nate Jackson.
Shanny must be satisfied enough with his blocking ability to cut Mustard and Pierce.
Although, I think this is more indication of the depth they want to keep at other positions,
and more indication of the fact their offense is so geared toward the pass game now.
And they know Mustard will always be there on the street if they need him, and Pierce will go to the PS.

Will Barrett be
passing waivers and joining the PS?

becuae he got dinged up some
he may not be in ideal shape to join another teams 53. i think he clears waivers for us.

What I think so far
Good:
Cutting Sapp- I’ve liked what I’ve seen from Hillis and this means that A.A. will most likely make the team.
Bad
Cutting D-Hack only scares me. We need another qb bad now. Let’s steal one from the bucs.

Which Arizona guy? Leinart or Morelli?
Leinart would be good for Broncos commercials, he is very photogenic. Morelli gives the pass defense opportunities to practice returning interceptions. Both QBs are very good options.

No surprises so far
I’m not surprised by any of the cuts so far – Sapp was my pick for surprise cut.
Of all the people cut/waived so far the only one i think should have made the 53 is Hackney (over Ramsey).
I like the idea of what Barret can become but the PS is the right place for him this year.

Hillis is the real test though
since he is a thoroughbred at the position with a pedigree in pass catching. If he can’t last I think Shanny gives up on the FB and goes straight to 3TE! :)

and check out NFL.com
under “NFL Shop” they have a thing called gamepass, which gives you options for following either the NFL, a single team, or a single weekends worth of games. I don’t know if it is active yet, but it looks cool.
I have no idea what it costs, since they don’t list that, and it is only available to fans outside of the US.

With 8 annouced so far...
There should be 12 more cuts coming…
The Broncos were at 74 after the Holland trade, and Brandon Marshall will no count against the 53 man roster week 1, so that leaves 20 players that need to be moved.

Sirius, yesterday, announced possible trade of Gandy back to IND.
Apparently they’ve lost OGs and Gandy was a perfect fit because of his knowledge of their system.
Doesn’t explain why they wouldn’t just wait for him to be cut, though.
by Colinski on Aug 30, 2008 3:44 PM MDT up reply actions 0 recs
we can take a hard stance if we wanted
and trading Holland seems to back us up. It would be a bluff, but I think Indy might have to honor it.
Of course, this is Bill Polian we are talking about here. I f Shanny bluffs him, “Mastermind” may be too magnanimous of a title for Shanny.

Denver has three retired numbers
18 Frank Tripucka
44 Floyd Little
7 John Elway.
This team can’t keep retiring numbers or else they will have none left. I was thinking about that last night while watching #77 make a great tackle. Alzado and Meck came to mind immediately, but no, it was worn by Larry Birdine.
Not that he deserved that number, who else in the future could equal Alzado? Who could match Rod Smith’s numbers wearing #80? In the end, I just want to see a player honor and try to live up to a former great players number. No more retired numbers unless we develop a football legend like Elway again.

a player or put him on waivers. Any other team can pick him up, but they must have an open 53-man-roster spot. If no team “claims” him off waivers, he may be placed on your practice squad.

It is a 24 hour period where any team can claim a player
If multiple teams claim the player, he goes to the worst team of the bunch. The team that claims a player off of waivers assumes the current contract of that player.
Also, any player with more than 3 years (maybe 4) of NFL experience who is cut today does not have to go on waivers. He becomes a free agent immediately and can choose to sign with any team (there may be a restriction about resigning with the same team in less than 24 hours)

Cecil Sapp
I got this from the Denver Post
“The Broncos also placed Sapp, their starting fullback last year, on injured waivers. Sapp suffered a hip flexor against the Cardinals.”

Rest of the cuts are not getting announced until 4pm MDT – according to the DP.

so is this stuff
like when the police don’t report a victims name to the press? Do they have to talk to the cuttee first to make sure his family doesn’t hear it from the press first?

No they have to talk to Cutty first - ask for permission

WR....
The position we do not need. They need to worry about RB. Maybe they will try Rudi Johnson

Anthony Alridge's Injury = OVER EXAGERATED AND FAKE!!!!!!
Teams do this all the time……..Anthony Alridge’s injury isn’t as bad as expected they just wanted to keep him but didnt wanna risk releasing him cause he wouldn’t clear waivers. Saints did the same thing with Arrington

So they get to keep him for the rookie minimum
without using a roster spot and he’ll be available to compete for a roster spot next year. Have I got that right?

He has a real injury, so yes
If Jay Cutler broker his left pinky tomorrow, Denver could choose to put him on IR. But putting him on the IR means he cannot practice or play all year and his salary counts against the cap. Not sure about attending meetings.
by MattR on Aug 30, 2008 3:30 PM MDT up reply actions 0 recs
Thats stupid if they did!!
we only have 3 rb and 1 Fb now. Torian not included because he might not be back until after the bye week. We should have kept him until Torian came back and then they should have put him on IR
by gnarlybroncodude on Aug 30, 2008 3:31 PM MDT up reply actions 0 recs
They are definitely thin at RB if there is an injury
But if Alridge was gonna be out for a couple weeks with the torn foot ligament then they would still have been thin if they kept him active.

I assume the player would have to go along with something like that?
by AlleyCat. on Aug 30, 2008 3:28 PM MDT reply actions 0 recs
Eckuban is going too I think
Looks like I was pretty close on my assessment of Sapp and Pittman the other day…
"Either way, I don’t see Sapp or Pittman making this team. It’s a numbers game from what I can tell. You figure with Young, Hall, Aldridge, and Torain there isn’t enough room for 7 HB/FBs. The only way I see both those guys on the team is if Denver cuts Aldridge and puts Torain on the PUP.
I think EE is going to get a pink slip too.

not for much longer
the talent level in Houston is getting better by the week so they wont be intested in all our castoffs for too much longer. We may be looking at theirs :)

Give the guy a break...
He is what he is – not his fault the ’Skins reached…
Besides, keeping Hackney based on one game might be rushing things…
And none of this matters we’d loose any game without Cutler…

I agree to a point.
I even stuck up for him at the time. Still, over the course of time (including the preseason), Ramsey has just looked awful, while Hackney has seemed decent.
