Last minute thoughts as the Broncos prepare to hit the field

Good Morning from the media room deep inside Broncos Headquarters in Englewood, CO. With about 45 minutes to go as I write this, a few loose ends to wrap up.
First, Robert Ayers did not get his deal done in time to start practice this morning. Ayers is hoping to have a 5-year contract done some time today. It has been reported that the 17th pick - QB Josh Freeman - was signed by the Buccaneers so that bodes well for Ayers to get signed in the near future, with League approval, of course.
The news is not so promising, right now at least, on RB Knowshon Moreno. Apparently Moreno isn't within 1,000 miles of Denver, working out back in Georgia. Where a player physically is located is always a good indication of where things stand in negotiations. If Knowshon gets on a plane and heads to Denver, things are looking good. Until then, well....
That's all for now. Thanks for all the suggestions on what to look for. I'll try to answer all your questions. For up-to-the-minute updates, make sure to follow MHR on Twitter!!

Is he ready to go just waiting on the final details, and will he be available for the afternoon practice?

The Denver Post tweeted that there is no tweeting allowed from the field. Were you told that, too? By whom? And WHY?

hey guru qick question for you
since you said u are in the media room, have you found that any resentment from the “traditional” media guys since youre a blogger? or have they been in general pretty nice to you?
i ask because i get the sense from listening to the radio that the traditional guys resent the bloggers coming onto their territory. they dont realize that the demand has moved towards the blogs because the content is generally better
YES...
To give you an idea. I was charging my laptop in someone’s spot before they arrived. When I cam back in from the field, my laptop was unplugged and sitting on the floor….Real mature. And they wonder why they are a dying breed…..

I’m sure you’ve seen by now, but I thought I’d post just in case. Marshall has shown up and is practicing.
The three on the active/PUP list are apparently there and running.

I just saw
a Kool-Aid commercial on TV. The 1st one I have seen in at least 10 years. Could it be an Omen? =)

It may depend....
Did he bust through any walls (reflecting good D), or was the Kool-Aid man even in it?
; )

It's important to adjust the color on your set
So that the koolaid on those commercials always comes up ORANGE!

History Repeats
The last running back to hold out on the Broncos? Tatum Bell.
But he was drafted in the 2nd round, so it doesn't count.

I am Not Sure to find this Funny or Sad
Tis better not to throw it to the deep receiver but the open receiver.
I actually feel really bad for the guy...though I couldn't help but chuckle a little.

It’s hard NOT to chuckle (at least a little) at… I mean he is a Raider after all….
But yeh, that is horrible. That must be one of the few places where it’s actually hard to find a Raider fan?

It's also hard to find people that can read
in Alabama.
I’m allowed to crack jokes, I have family there. :)

Thats just plain sad!
Those that cant coach, compete!
Failing to plan is planning to fail.
All I want is 53 Rod Smiths. Is that asking too much????

Hopefully the rest of the 1st round signs regardless....
I could care less if he signs his tender now or not. If we can get a few guys around our picks to sign up, then we should be set.
