I'd agree with that list above. I'd probably have Nixon over Thompson though.

I was thinking the other day we will probably be scanning waivers for TE. I think Kreiger-Coble gets stored on PS but has a future for us.

Can we get a TE from Minny for Sanchez?

How about Sanchez, ??? and a 7th to Minny for Patterson.

I like the idea of Patterson.

MyCole Pruitt is a pretty solid #2 For Minnesota, but not sure they will give him up. Not sure what the future is for Kyle Rudolph there.

Slight change for me...

Ill have Nixon out, Kapri Bibbs in. Keeping a 4th RB. So my change over Klis is Thompson out Bibbs in.

PS

1. Sulleyman
2. Dora
3. Norman
4. Frasier (Or pehaps Day or Lowery, as keeping 2 WR's would give us a total of 8 total)
5. Raymond
6. Peko
7. L.Hanson
8. Nixon (If he clears waivers if not Lowery)
9. R. Murphy
10. Kreiger-Coble

Shilo Keo will go on the two week suspension list then probably cut after 2 weeks unless we have an open roster spot by that time.

Zaire looked good again. Justin Simmons did not play . He has already secured the David Bruton role. Good for him. Dixon was terrible punting and a possible bad hold as well.
Not sure what to think of Heuerman. If not for being a 3rd rounder he'd be cut.

Agree on all of that. Zaire Anderson has really been perhaps our MVP of pre-season. In fairness to Dixon, he wa bad but he has looked good in the other games. Hopefully justa bad game.

Dwayne Norman likely secured a PS job.

I am liking our undrafted class. Not a lot of room for them now, but some good options for the PS.

In fairness to Dixon Kubiak did point out after the game that he was working on a couple of new things to see how they would do. Preseason is the time to try a few different things and just see what happens so at least he knows now that they don't work and can move on.

Well Broncos today are shopping Hillman and Sanchez. Sounds like they are only wanting to keep 3 RB's and right now Hillman might not be one of them. Still he showed well in the preseason so might as well see what you can get if anything.

Man some surprise names already released today.

Justin Hunter WR for the Titans
Lamin Barrow LB for the Bears (was a Fox pick for the Broncos and I remember them showing the warroom and the coaches running around the room with excitement for getting him)
Jeremiah Poutasi G for the Titans (I actually liked this guy coming out of college last year. Wouldn't mind the Broncos trying to get him)

Mostly just the Titans cutting a lot of high draft pick players just from the past 2 drafts.

Some more names before I head to lunch...

DT Kyle Peko who some thought might make the roster has been cut with the hopes that he makes it to the practice squad.
Kahlif Raymond is another that is a good candidate for the practice squad
ILB Dwayne Norman has also been waived.
CB Tauren Nixon has been released. I had him making the team so a bit of a surprise but he didn't exactly have the best game last night either and has had some struggles this off season.

To add to Carl's list

Cut

Dora
Sulleyman
Frasier
Melton
Juwan Thompson

We are trying to trade Ronnie Hillman. Looks like Bibbs has made it.

Patriots working out David Cobb, I sorta was hoping in a way we might take a flyer on him.

I hope Frazier and Peko remain with the Broncos .. I like both of 'em, Frazier especially

After watching all of Lynch's throws, I am loving Jordan Taylor even more

The depth at WR is pretty incredible ... I have probably said this before, but if you look at the WRs from the 90s Super Bowls, only Eddie Mac and Rod Smith would make this 2016 roster

and we wouldn't have had to waste a first rounder on Marcus Nash. ;)

Well list of all the cuts from today for the Broncos...

John Tidwell
Kalif Raymond
Dwayne Norman
Taurean Nixon
Kyle Peko
Eddie Yarbrough
Sadat Sulleyman
Vontarrius Dora
Juwan Thompson
Mose Fraizer
Lars Hanson
Henry Melton
Lars Koht
Robert Myers

So that is 14 of the 22 that need to be released. Also remember that most years the Broncos also bring in another player from another team that is cut. So good chance there are still 7 cuts to be made from our current roster. Going to be a busy next couple of days.

McCluster was a pretty good returner when he was with the Chiefs, doubt we bring him in but I'd be ok if we did.

He was one name I thought about as he helps our RB depth as well and gives us what I think we were hoping Ronnie Hillman could be of that speed change of pace back but also the ability to add a lot to our special teams.
Honestly though right now with watching some of the Stanford game I would love to get McCaffrey in here. Gives us an incredible weapon and solves our special teams question for the next possibly 10 years.

BJ Lowery was also cut but hasn't been reported yet. I only know because he texted me that he was cut this morning. So 15 of 22.

To no surprise Will Parks was informed he has made the team.
