Broncos to sign Michael Huff

Hopefully it's only for depth and not to start

Not a bad depth signing...Still would rather see Champ or Jammer get some work at safety at this point.

Along with that, Rahim Moore goes on IR - Designated to return. He has to be out a minimum of 6 weeks, which is right about when the playoffs start.

The first game he can return for would be the AFC Championship Game just like last year with McGahee.

I don't even know who the other 3 are, but I'd take any of them over Huff

Are you sure? Denver Post is reporting it's for 6 weeks. That would mean he would be eligible to return by wild card weekend (which hopefully Denver won't be playing on).

Never mind. The Broncos tweeted that he's eligible to practice in 6 weeks and can play in 8 weeks, which does indeed mean he can't return until the AFC Championship game.

I'm sure that's the intent. I would doubt Del Rio would bring in someone off the street to be the starter immediately. We'll probably stay in house, with Huff available for depth. And as I mentioned earlier, I wouldn't be surprised at all to see more of Jammer this week with Gronkowski to contend with.

The other 2 were Tyler Sash and John Boyett. It is slim pickings at this time in the market.

Shit not good at all!! Jammer would be the better option.

Not sure why people feel this way. Just a few years ago this guy graded out as one of the top 5 safeties in the league. The Broncos aren't asking him to start at least now so he has some time to learn the system and maybe just maybe he can get back to playing at least at a decent level.

I seriously doubt they're going to start Huff anytime soon. Still, it would be irresponsible of them not to address the depth at the position.

Huff wasnt on a team that tells me alot. He is there for depth and hopefully they wont need him.

A few years ago so that answers your own question and there is a reason why he wasnt on anyones roster. Hopefully the Broncos wont need him and if so hopefully he does well.

 

[MrDoc420]

Maybe a fresh start with a contender is was he needed to reinvigorate his career. He did have a couple decent years before he fell off recently.

 

[MrDoc420]

That being said.....I hope he doesn't see the field much unless it's necessary.

How does that answer my question...he was released by the raiders not so much for his play on the field but because of his contract being out of whack. He only played one game for the ravens before they decided to play their rookie 1st round pick. Not sure that is showing he is horrible just not as highly thought of as he was a few years ago. Again this is a depth signing at a low contract that could turn into a high reward situation. Most likely not but if nothing else he is a decent depth guy for this team since he can play both safety positions and even played corner

Agreed. He is a former 1st round pick. The NFL is a business and guys who can play at ma good level get cut all the time because of the money, especially by teams that are not in contention (Raiders) or teams that have cheaprer options in a rookie..

If he gets to play at anytime the rest of season and he gets a pk 6........Great signing!

I said he was there for depth. I wonder if any of you can read? The fact that I dont want to see him on the field that much as well is that means another guy went down. I thought some of you were better then this. The fact is he wasnt on a team. I really dont care what he did years ago. Hopefully he will do fine if needed to.
