McKnight and Muhammad the two that choke me up the most. ;) but not surprised. Had to get to 80 and we saw plenty of these two last year to give them a fair chance.

Manning must have been cut too. He is no longer on the roster.

In a way - this is interesting from the perspective that these cuts represent players the Broncos don't think will make their roster - which would have been the perspective on them - even if the Broncos and the NFL were using the regular roster cut down dates.

As I have observed often - Walker is facing a number game -where he appears to be the odd man out - without preseason games to create a competition. Even if he isn't cut - he knows he is on the bubble.

Need to cut 2 more to get to 80 and maybe 2-3 who are contemplating opting out.

When this site went down last night I thought we were all cut.

For the record. I was not talking about Jess as being the person taking Walker's tweet and making it into something. I was referring to the author that brought it up.

I think there are a lot more than 10 on a 90 man roster that the majority of teams have a good idea of player who won't make the roster.

We saw McKnight and Muhammad on the PS most of last year (Muhammad all of it, McKnight was cut then brought back to the PS weeks later)

I told you Riley Neal never stood a chance.. Camp body!

I think these cuts were pretty easy without practice. Muhammad maybe the only one that really surprised me a smidge because he was on the PS all year, but we saw enough to know we have the plan in mind for someone else this year to be on the PS. McKnight seemed to not have a great chance here even of making the PS... Wouldn't be surprised to see either of these two back on a roster once the season gets going. 16 man PS and covid issues there are going to be a lot of 2nd, 3rd, 4th opportunities this year.

I'll give you a full Yes, but...

Yes, but you can't serious say these guys 80-90 were the 10 worst talents on the team. So my point is some were in this group for some other legitimate reasons.

Kyle Pecko opting out is the 10th to get the Broncos down to 80 players. It will be interesting if others opt out, who they sign back to get back to 80.

Andrew Beck added to covid list.

That's troublesome. He was going to be our pretend Fullback and he was one of the 'extra' guys I thought would make the roster. But, on the other hand, some other TE might have just gotten a bit of leeway to show something. Worth looking at and I was already interested in the position group because I'm intrigued by Albert O.

Beck did not opt out for the season, but either tested positive for COVID-19 or was in contact with someone who did.

The Chinese messing with us. Happening more and more

Probably the Rooskies - since our president has no stop sign for what they want.

He didn’t die. ;). He is simply on the covid list. Can come back once cleared.
