Green will join former Baltimore Raven’s defensive lineman Justin Bannan, who signed with Denver a few days ago. Bannan and Green will add a veteran presence to the re-imagined Broncos defensive line.
The Broncos already signed their apparent starting NT in University of Colorado Alum Justin Bannan, formerly of the Ravens & Bills. But that doesn’t mean that Williams would be out of place in Denver.
According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Bengals are considering making a play for Pro Bowl receiver Brandon Marshall. The plan would be to get a beast to roam the opposite side of the field for Ochocinco, theoretically giving Carson Palmer a one-two punch as good as any in the league.
Marshall needs to go, and that’s why the Broncos placed a 1st round tender on him instead of the 1st & 3rd round tender they placed on DE Elvis Dumervil. With the 1st round tender Marshall is marketable, and Seattle would seem a perfect fit.
Brandon Lloyd was an excellent foil for Brandon Marshall last season. Russ Hochstein is a Patriots-pedigreed offensive lineman that clearly fits the mold preferred by Broncos’ coach Josh McDaniels.
The man accused of killing Denver Broncos cornerback Darrent Williams on New Year’s Day 2007 has yet to take the stand in his own trial, but Denver prosecutors have brought plenty of his supposed accomplices to the forefront as the trial moves into its final stages.
The Broncos made an expected move today, placing tenders on several big name players, including Brandon Marshall, Elvis Dumervil, Kyle Orton, Chris Kuper and Tony Scheffler.
There are two formerly elite running backs that may still have some gas left in the tank that hit the market today, and each one should have a motivation to want to play in Denver. The question is, should Denver pursue either of them?
Word comes out of the Denver Post now that Williams’ death still haunts Marshall, and is a big reason for Marshall’s insistence, in action if not in word, that he find a new city to call home.
It reads like a TMZ report – Brandon Marshall (in rumor) is linked to every team in the league right now, including the team who currently holds him under contract.
