He was a good fit for their ZB system a few years back, and would at least make excellent depth if we could get him for cheap.

That chad johnson officially changed his name to Chad javon Ocho Cinco are you effin kidding me

One — Polumbus and Pears, says we see potential.

Ten DLs — lots, and I’m not really surprised.

ALL those LBs — wow, Larsen, Green & Woody.

More later.

Barrett (SAF) – we drafted him for a reason. I hope he gets a chance.
Hackney (QB) – If Cutler goes down, we only have one QB, and that one sucks.
Mustard (TE) – Still a good 3rd TE.

Beyond that, I’d be ok with anything.

Many of the actual decisions were settled by injury. I didn’t want to say this previously, just because I didn’t want to hex them.

What if Alridge hadn’t got hurt? We can speculate on whether they protected him but that ankle turning made me worry last night. It would have been an interesting decision.

Have to wonder about the numbers — 10 DLs. I don’t mind the number but I’m still not sure about some of the depth. Clemons came out of nowhere, although he looks like a real physical specimen. And all the possible surprises on the DL haven’t (yet) materialized.

Where there some finds on at LB? We may yet to see the final cut, so it does seem possible that Green or Larsen will finally get waived. It’s still shows, in all likelihood, that Larsen won a job last night. Even if it’s a temp position.

What possible roster additions are coming? There are lots of postings, but what area of the team would people like to see an addition at? I think of DT — of course — but there still could be a few surprises, but we won’t see something like last year. I predict that.

Noah Herron, Vernand Morency released by Packers

Marcus Mason (WAS), Ryan Moats (PHI) released

Mason looked to be pretty solid on Thursday night.

Bucs released WR Brian Clark, DE Patrick Chukwurah, LB Ryan Nece, and waived DT Dre Moore

Moore was high on many Denver fans’s boards. Chukwurah and Clark are former Broncos, and Nece realy isn’t anything special, but makes for great depth (which we don’t need more of.)

except for the fact that I wouldn’t have waived Hackney. Cutler better stay healthy because we are in trouble with Ramsey in there.

I am surprised to see that Alridge if on IR. I mean he played well last night.

Unless I am wrong, 7-8 players from the 53 go to the PS?

Hats off to the poster who stated that Wesley Woodyard would make the team before training game. I didn’t think he had a shot at the final roster, but he’s really shown a lot during preseason. Good call.

The roster roster list tab at the top of the MHR page currently has Offense, Defense, and Special Teams. Can a Practice Squad section be added?

scouting report: lacks good instincts, is a better athlete than football player, and lacks ideal height and bulk.

playing field: excellent instincts, a football player in the true sense of the word, and screw ideal measurables. god i hate when people get caught up in numbers. losers

btw, did anyone notice we kept the entire draft class this year, minus barrett, who i’m sure we’d like to see slip thru waivers? powell and torain are hurt, and both could conceivably return this season. wow. 4 ufa’s, also, kern, woodyard, alridge, polumbus. that’s 12 rookie keepers, folks. shanny is on fire

brett pierce has been placed on the waived/injured list, although i have no idea what that means. i guess he is still waived/cut?

Does anyone know if Lynch made the cut with his new team?

a QB who finished last night with a 102 QB rating. In lieu of Ramsey.

Crap.

And Pears is still around. I guess the Broncos needed a matador.

i think they wanted a tackle with at least 1 nfl start, perhaps. plus he played both spots, in case of injury. insurance and depth, if you will.

not too many people are happy about hackney, but he is probably not nfl-ready yet. ramsey is getting alot of heat, and deservedly so, but he is our best option this season in case of disaster. if hackney makes it to the practice squad, he may, in fact, pass ramsey on the depth chart this season. lets hope he makes it there, he looked really good last game. but as someone commented before, he still has happy feet. he’s still a little too raw to earn shanny’s confidence, i guess. either way, we’re toast w/out cutler, as are most teams in the nfl without their starting qb
