The shitty part is Kubiak's been away from Denver so long, he probably doesn't remember where the safe houses are.
So who is going to play OL for this team next year? Maybe we 'll find out tonight. Ramirez isn't anything special but trading him seemed odd when the only other experienced linemen are Clady, Vazquez, and Clark.
Six rounds of the draft to go. Personally, I like the pick for Denver.
I see other teams add quality players and I have to remind myself that it's the first round of the draft - everyone *should* get someone pretty good who can help them. Some picks obviously won't work out, but most teams should help themselves in round one. I think Denver did just that.

I don't mind drafting Ray but they probably could have made the trade without Ramirez. They already lost Franklin and really haven't added anyone to my knowledge. And OL was a big issue entering the offseason.
Denver beat writers were speculating last night that Ramirez was going to be cut so it was iffy that he was even in their future plans anyways. OL is a definite need for them this weekend however.
my draft 02 for denver
1st round ray was a top 15 talent he will be the 3rd OLB this and replace ware after 15
2nd round ty sambrino will be the RT by week 10 perfect fit for kubiak sys
3rd round Jeff heruerman best combo of catching blocking in the draft inj will hurt but J Thomas missed most of the first 2 years he will not be j thomas could be a O Danlels with better blocking skills
4nd Round garica will start by week 8 has a mean steak road grader
5th round Doss gets burned a lot but can also get a lot of INT'S will be denver Nickel in 16
6th round Kilgo a sleeper pick
rest are unlikely to make the team

Broncos Pro Bowl LT Ryan Clady tore his left ACL during practice Wednesday and is likely to miss the 2015 season, a league source told ESPN.

Tough break, although frankly he hasn't played well since his first injury a few years ago, anyway. Before that injury, he was a stud.Corsi said:
Considering how lucky the Broncos were with injuries last year, they are probably due for their share this year. Of course, the Pats were pretty healthy last year, too.
So it looks like their projected OL is Clark-Garland-Gradkowski-Vazquez-Schofield...not exactly the Hogs.
Peyton is going to get killed. They were already in deep trouble with OL quality and depth before this injury. Now this might be worst unit in the entire league.

I think the Pats could actually weather non-Solder injuries pretty well--their problem from where I sit is that, apart from Vollmer and Solder, the starters aren't particularly good relative to the backups.
Devizier said:
Meh, that's kind of a meaningless statement. Sure, any team could get decimated by injuries and end up with a terrible OL just like any team could lose their starting QB and have a terrible QB situation. What's important is that the Broncos are already in that spot.
Fwiw, I actually think the Patriots have good OL depth compared to most teams.
I wasn't expecting a deep playoff push from Denver yesterday. I'm expecting it even less now.
The Manning window was sliding closed and the pace picked up a ton with Clady's injury. He wasn't the same after his alias franc injury, but moving back into a Zone Blocking Scheme with Kubiak was supposed to work to his strengths. So much for that!
I do wonder what it would take to trade for one of the veteran Tackles in Cleveland who are reportedly not being resigned after this year.

It is pretty amazing that Bowlen's son was arrested for domestic violence, and the girlfriend claims he was wasted, doing whippets, and threatening to kill someone else he had had an issue with, and it hasn't been a bigger story on ESPN. The owner's son. Imagine. . . . nevermind.

It's not much different than the treatment of the Irsay "non-story" so it shouldn't be too surprising.

One of my good friends worked for the Patriots for a while and said that Kraft's son David got hammered during training camp in 2002 and flipped a golf cart. That's all I got. David's the bad one, apparently.
@AllbrightNFL: #Broncos attempted to trade Peyton Manning this off-season to the Houston #Texans per more than one source in position to know. (1/2)
@AllbrightNFL: 2/2 Certain elements of Broncos organization wanted Osweiler era to begin this season.

Guys, the notion that Peyton Manning may have been mentioned in a trade conversation represents a "new low in sports journalism".

This report says the Texans (who went 9-7 with 4 different Qbs) weren't really interested at his price tag and went with Hoyer instead

Holy shit. I thought you were being tongue in cheek with your comment. I wonder what the author previously defined as the low. Bernie Kosar trade rumors?RGREELEY33 said:
denver first 2 games means everything if the o-line can hold up very big if weeks 3-8 sit up very well for a fast start like 6-2 7-1
while i do think denver will fade i do think they should win the afc west because KC 9 road games VS Det in London SD no gates first 4 weeks plus the pendind move to LA will hurt them on the field

The Broncos signed Evan Mathis to a one-year deal. I don't know how much he has left in the tank (33 turning 34 in November) but he was a great player in the past and has to be better than their other options at guard.
Good get for Denver. Their offensive line is the weak link of this team, but it just got a bit stronger.
Hmmm, didn't know that. But come to think of it, Rosenhaus probably just made up the $5.5M offer to save face.soxfan121 said:

Yeah well he was going to get more than that for the Eagles before he asked for more.
Foolish.
He's dropped a notch, there are a few scouts who think he dropped off last year and that's why the Eagles weren't interested in extending or paying up. Obviously the Eagles have something along that view, because as mad as Kelly appears there is usually some plan behind it, but it's pretty clear if you're under contract and whine about it be prepared to leave, so it may not have not been performance related in Philly.
TJ Ward suspended one game for an "altercation at a Denver nightclub."

A misdemeanor, all charges were eventually dropped, and it happened more than a year ago?Ed Hillel said:
