GS - Ex-Gator Moss now a linebacker
Hmm. Jarvis says he feels right at home playing LB. So, you mean the Broncos shouldn't have traded UP in the first round to take an undersized DE who is miscast positionally? Oh. Whoops. Hopefully the switch works out.
Athlon - 2009 Denver Broncos Preview
Hmm. Magazine sales must be dropping. Or, at least they should be; Athlon still has J.J. Arrington and Boss Bailey on the team, while the retention of Bobby Turner and Rick Dennison is ignored to say the blocking scheme will be totally different.
SB - Raiders Blog and Q&A: Elway almost a Raider?
Wow. Try not to have any nightmares tonight. It's okay; it DIDN'T HAPPEN.
DP - Jeff Legwold to join The Denver Post
Here's the best Broncos news in months. Thank you DP and welcome back, Jeff!! Thanks to Elizabeth for the link!
DP - Fans' hopes fall when Watson's shots don't
Dusty Saunders doesn't know who will be alongside Dave Logan calling Broncos games.
FOX - 7 Points: Mason needs to decide on future in NFL - Ed Thompson
Thompson perpetuates the myth that Alphonso Smith has to come up big in '09 to justify the price Denver paid. Well, he's probably not starting either way. So if he's not a starter until 2 years from now, the trade was dumb? What are you saying, Ed?
PFW - Jets' Washington seeks elite-back contract
PFW apparently can't make up its mind about Smith. He is the "heavy favorite" at nickelback but "didn't cement his role during OTAs" (as if that's possible for a rookie).

PFW - Jonesing for redemption - Dan Waters
I wonder if Dan Waters really knows what the word "Jonesing" means. I'm guessing not.

Good Morning NYC
It’s too bad about Tom Watson. I was pulling for him.
Thanks for the Horse Tracks.

3 year and it
still remain to be see of the jarven moss. I not see any the flash of great when he defence end guy. No move guy no moves you know what I saying. The signatured move. I hopeful he can will be contribute of the outside line back yes or that is corny. robert ayer seem like he the terminator guy. he is new hope like new jedi or something. he you defence technical I hope he can terminate quarter back too. from out side positional.
Sack so rare in the denver it rare than where waldo. If we dont smash you enemy team quart back this year it gon be long year guy. Where is pole axe megaton holio in air hit of enemy quarter back guy. what happen to it and pick off pass run other way. You make you enemy quart back delusional is good to do why cant we do this guy maybe new system will do this. we get like ten new guy on defence. It have to be better then last year.

Wow, I'm out of the loop
I totally didn’t realize the Broncos had released JJ Arrington! Still thought he was with the team. Oh well, so much for that! Guess Knowshon meant his doom.
In defense of Athlon magazine
They did pick the Broncos to come in 2nd in the division, which is not unreasonable. Also, on page 55, they say the Broncos got the best free agent bunch in the AFC by signing Andra Davis, Brian Dawkins, Renaldo Hill and Andre Goodman. Too bad they didn’t mention Buckhalter, Jordan, Darrell Reid, Ronnie Fields or Jabbar Gaffney.

True
which is better than the Pro Football Weekly/Yahoo Sports NFL preview mag I skimmed through yesterday which picked the Broncos to finish last. I know there are some people here who expect the same result but that seems seriously, well as my friends in the UK would say, naff. Great OL, improved defense, great RB depth, and imho improved assistant coaching staff + still fairly weak division does not = last place to me. But whatever, I guess no Cutler means the difference between winning and losing. (Not that it did in the past.) Anyway, whatever, preview magazines are all guess work anyway, and seem to, as you point out, miss some of the player transactions due to press schedule or lazy reporting.
Matt Jones
I’d like to see the Broncos sign this guy. After playing QB at Arkansas, the Jags drafted him in the first round in 05 as a receiver. After three lackluster years, he was hearing the bust word. Then a year ago he got caught with cocaine (maybe that explains, to an extent, the lackluster thing). Went on the program and had a very good year in 08, until he got caught having a couple beers (while on league and court probation). I be he’s learned his lesson (Non means Non; Nada means Nada, etc). Some team is going to take a chance on the cheap and i bet it works out for that team.

He is an athlete
that is for sure.
Take my advice... I'm not using it!
Just click your heels together three times and say, "There's no player like Hillis... there's no player like Hillis."
Talent or not
given the Broncos situation with Marshall and McDaniels wanting to bring in character guys, I think there’s less than zero chance they’d sign him unless things got desperate. Don’t disagree that he deserves a chance with someone though.
Hit the button too fast...
I wonder if he is wanting more money than teams are willing to pay given his suspension risk (ala BMarsh)?

No suspension risk
The league fined him but did not suspend him. Apparently that’s a closed issue. Jones is 6’6" and 230, runs a 4.4 40.

T.O.'s Show...
You’d have to pay me roughly his yearly salary to watch that crap. Pour tragically misunderstood guy…destroys teams wherever he goes and he just can’t comprehend why people don’t like him…
Maybe the Bills will give Vick a shot (if the Commish lets him play that is), seeing how they’ve already thrown this year away by signing Owens. Or maybe the Vikes, to go along with the Farve saga.
Man, to think that Elway was actually close to going to the Haiders…scary…!
Happy B-Day Casey and D.J.!
As a Scientist
I always look for common variables. T.O + Eagles = Dysfunctional Team
T.O + SF 49ers Dysfunctional Team, T.O + Cowboys = Dysfunctional Team
I see a common thread, it is amazing that he doesn’t. I mean the guy must just figure that the only universal truth is that nobody can comprehend his greatness or something.
Tis better not to throw it to the deep receiver but the open receiver.
Thats my Quarterback!
(Sniff,Sniff) Thats my Teammate!
