EWU’s Aaron Neary refuses to be overlooked

Aaron Neary's story

Easy guy to pull for. The type of player that could make the PS if for no other reason to push people around him to be better.

Thanks for sharing all these links, Mingo.

Tigers' Mose Frazier a working man on and off the field

Mose Frazier - seems like a really good guy

I don't think he has any chance to make the team. But what a great story!

This reminded me of the guy from Arizona St. the Broncos had come in for a couple of years when Oz arrived - almost like bringing in a familiar face as part of the rookie QB introduction system.

I could see him stick on the practice squad just to give Lynch a little sense of comfort with a guy he knows and gets along with. We have quite a few WR's hit FA next year so need to start training a couple of guys up on the PS anyway.

This has nothing to do with this WR but I am getting a bit excited to see what Sunshine does for us in year 2 since Manning talked him up so much.

Bralon Addison a Bronco- Nothing else matters now.

After Carroo, I was really wanting one of Lawler or Addison. Addison the most useful one as a KR/PR.

I am so stoked right now.

Booker and Addison!

We will have to see. Christian can redeem the family name but Max for sure is dead to me picking the Raiders of all teams. I know they didn't draft a WR this year but come on he had to grow up hating the Raiders with a passion just like all of us.

He probably took the team he might have a chance to hold on to a position on to..

He was never going to hold on to anything here .. You know he loves the Broncos so wish him luck .

I will .

Also being told by a friend of Jeremy Cash's that he has signed with the Broncos.

Haven't seen it in writing yet, but good source.


I'd move him to LB.

 

[Draft Crazy]

Report I see says he signed with Panthers, but those are never official, many change the next day. We will see. Don't go phone your friends yet he could have been confused, but he does know him well, sooooo!

Just checked, Cash signed with Carolina. He got him confused with Duke RB Shaq Powell. Carry on!, Sorry for getting you excited, not like he can cover anyway.

I was very surprised Cash didn't get drafted. Interesting - the Broncos have a lot of friends in the Duke football program -and didn't take him or Max McCaffrey. I also think John Elway might have been delighted to get rid of Mr. Irrelevant - as everyone would have wanted him to draft McCaffrey. I also think the Broncos already knew Max wanted to be a UDFA on a team of his choice - rather than the last pick of the draft on a stacked team. Addison wouldn't have likely signed if McCaffrey was drafted.

Frank Shannon will be interesting, decent player. Suspended a year. Not real fast, bit stiff, but great tackler, bulldog type LB.

I dunno Addison saw the opening at return man here something Max isn't... A lot of times it is the team that shows the most love during the process teams sign with which it shouldn't always be... Gotta know your depth charts etc. Agents often suck at helping players get into best opportuity. Ive seen it too much. Guy signs with Bears when they draft 3 CB's over Carolina who has a need and drafted none, but the Bears showed him more attention during the process.

Now you became a practice dummy!

He gets cut in PS, then ends up back in Carolina on their PS.

I think my point was - Addison has to know no one is employed long as only a return man -so he needed to calculate his chances to make the team as a WR too. If the Broncos had drafted a favorite son WR - no matter how much love he felt in the process - he might have other thoughts about his chances.

[Dr Cyanide 28]

Denver signed Sadat Sulleyman, DE/OLB, Portland State

How much rice can a Chinaman eat?!

How many UFAs did we end up actually signing?!

 

[Draft Crazy]

Not sure yet, they are still leaking out. Seems like every other year we sign a good amount, seemed like last year we didn't add many, this year we have a good amount.

1 or 2 probably cut after rookie camp, and probably a street free agent or two cut, then perhaps bring in another undrafted guy or two from rookie try out.

Someone will fail their physical like Mister Cobble and Matt Miller the last two years.

Patience pays off for Georgia Southern safety Antonio Glover

This is on Antonio Glover S from Georgia Southern seems like a guy you would like to give a chance to.

Did we sign Glover? I know his agent really well and interview his players every year...
