This was reported by the DP a few days ago, and now NFP is siting their source as the DP. In the DP article, there was no mention of who the players were.
Lets not get ahead of ourselves……I think McDaniels sees Hillis as a H Back/ FB so it would probably leave him out. We wont get anything for Selvin Young or Ryan Torain…..NOTHING!

That wouldn’t make any sense. But that has been his MO since arriving in Denver.

I’m serious. I’ll start following again once the current regime is ousted for someone who knows what the hell they’re doing.

we need to make this a bigger story. Let’s spread it far and wide people. I want to hear about this rumor for the next 4 weeks!!!!!

it’s just a little more chin music, imo. These guys (McXanials) are not playing around. By the time they hit the pracitce fields at Dove Valley in late July, no player will feel secure in their jobs or doubt the veracity of thier new young coach/GM.

Running back for trade.

Two NFL executives say the Broncos have been asking teams if they are interested in acquiring one of their running backs. It makes sense after the Broncos signed three free-agent tailbacks: Correll Buckhalter, J.J. Arrington and LaMont Jordan.

The Broncos’ holdover running backs who can be had for trade: Selvin Young, Ryan Torain and Peyton Hillis.

This is just a guy trying to fill space by blowing crap out of his you know what!

They’re putting people up on the block seeing what is out there. If they get an offer that’s worth it and will improve the team they’ll go for it. If not, they won’t.

Fans fall in love with players but the team has to put itself in a position to acquire the best options possible and that means exploring everything. Either Hillis will be back and compete for a spot on the roster – which he can surely earn – or we’ll get something worthwhile in compensation for him.

Either way I think it will work out.

“I am the low guy on the totem pole so I will go out and earn my job.” That’s all. I think Peyton Hillis is a beast of a player. I think he was a steal in the 7th round and will preform very well. I would be interested (if someone has the time I don’t currently) to see how much guff Raheem Morris and Steve Spagnola are getting. I know Morris got blasted for his releases early on but due to the cutler situation I haven’t seen anything on him. I think a lot of this has to do with McDaniels as a rookie coach. he is going to get a lot of press for wiping his butt because no one has ever seen him doing it. I wouldn’t worry too much.

“The Broncos’ holdover running backs are Selvin Young, Ryan Torain and Peyton Hillis.” That leaves open the question of which ones McDaniels considers expendable. The author wrongly assumes that all of the holdovers are being shopped. Nothing in the report, which refers only to “one of their running backs,” justifies that assumption. Sloppy reporting/thinking.
