The Denver Broncos on Thursday announced several transactions, including the signing of wide receivers Patrick Carter and Britt Davis. Also on Thursday the club waived wide receiver Patrick Honeycutt and placed safety Josh Barrett and wide receiver Kenny McKinley on injured reserve.
Carter (6-2, 205 pounds) is a first-year player who spent a portion of the 2009 season on Tampa Bay’s practice squad. He originally entered the NFL as a college free agent with Baltimore in 2008. He played in 20 career games at the University of Louisville after spending two seasons at Georgia Tech University. For his collegiate career, he posted 31 receptions for 464 yards and five touchdowns. A PrepStar All-Region quarterback at Lakewood High School in St. Petersburg, Fla., Carter was born on February 6, 1985.
Davis (6-2, 205 pounds) is a first-year player who spent the end of the 2009 season on the New York Jets’ practice squad after competing in the club’s training camp during the preseason. He was originally signed by the Jets as a college free agent from Northern Illinois University. He finished his career ranked fifth in NIU history with 146 receptions and totaled 1,676 receiving yards to go along with nine total touchdowns (8 receiving). A two-time All-State selection at Riverside-Brookfield High School in Broadview, Ill., Davis was born on April 23, 1986.

Dude – i need some TC updates about what is happening on the field. Today has sucked and I’m ready to move onto football. hell, give me Tebow hysteria instead of injury talk.
Come on Kaptain. I need me some football news.
Denver: 32-32 until we're not.

if you want pro-coverage, check the blog.denverbroncos.com site, they update it daily with the good news from camp practices every day. they update it 2x if there are two practices
i never feel like i'm getting the truth over there
it’s well written and maintained and all—excellent graphics these days—but you’ll never read about who DOESN’T look good or the things that aren’t going so well. feels more like propaganda than news.
I agree with Oxmouth. It’s far too much fluff and no real substance. Denverbroncos.com is like a G rated movie.
Not for me.
Denver: 32-32 until we're not.
Every team website is.
But, in the absence of anything else, its something.
Why hate on your OWN team when you've got the Raiders?

Videos and photos are good, though.

Yikes!
I finally scrape together a vacation, and what happens? I get a database server crash, and then see expected contributors (and one pricey star) leave Dove Valley with injuries?!? WTF indeed!

I swear
It seems like every time I turn around the Broncos are either drafting WRs and RBs or picking them up somehow. How’s the defense doin these days?

I'm not right all that often, but I've said often that McKinley is waaay to skinny to
survive the NFL. Count him out of the WR group from now on please.
sorta agree
“-McKinley is waay too skinny.. .”
His size has always been a concern but he still looks like a smart pick for that late in the draft. The problem — however — is that a knee injury isn’t the type of injury that comes from not being able to take a beating because of size. The question would be whether he’s injury prone. And that holds for Barrett, and I’ve come to believe that he may be.
"the megalomaniac view of oneself as the Elect, wholly good, abominably persecuted, yet assured of ultimate triumph; the attribution of gigantic and demonic powers to the adversary; the refusal to accept the ineluctable limitations and imperfections of human existence, such as transience, dissention, conflict, fallibility whether intellectual or moral; the obsession with inerrable prophecies…systematized misinterpretations, always gross and often grotesque." – Norman Cohn
Interesting that McKinley goes down and McD brings in another competitor for WR
And, drops another WR from camp and fills that slot with another WR too. We’ll have a packed PS roster, and all the WRs we can throw at ;-)

One good thing
They can keep the rights to two players who were likely on the bubble

Good point, Kap
We may need to find out about a few bubble players – seems like you need one or more every year.

McG if you remember
we had a little “wager” on McCarthy and Barrett. With this news I think its off, even though nothing was on it.
Just one correction for you in your story
It’s not “Georgia Tech University”, it’s the “Georgia Institute of Technology”…Georgia Tech.
Predictions:
This year will be better
What happened to Barrett and McKinley?

Yes, I know
Question is why? What kind of injury? How did it happen?

at maxdenver.com is saying McKinley hurt his knee and Barrett hurt his shoulder.
