You are only allowed to have an 80 man roster right now and this puts us back down to 78... Robertson and Jackson to join soon?

i think youre right

[shank]

why the hell did we cut hamilton? we JUST signed him and he's never played for us...

[nevcraw]

Few..
when i saw TE i thought it was my adopted bronco Mustard..
and The name Hamilton gave me a fright as well..

[BOSSHOGG30]

Exactly... they must be making room for someone... we can't go over 80... one of the reason we cut Burton is to make room for Samie Parker... I wouldn't be surprised if you see another additon or two to the Broncos roster today or sometime really soon.

Because nothing satisfies a coach quite like exciting a guy by signing him then crushing his very dreams and life by cutting him the following day.

[Requiem / The Dagda]

Please let Nate Jackson be next.

[BOSSHOGG30]

Please let Nate Jackson be next.

Broncos | Team signs Baugher

Denver Broncos head coach Mike Shanahan announced Tuesday, April 15, the team signed unrestricted free-agent P Danny Baugher (Bengals). Terms of the deal were not disclosed.


Well looks like this is one of the guys Denver knew they were picking up only one more to go... Probably Robertson or Jackson.

shit, danny baugher is the one that kicked his dad's ass and then got cut from the pats.

don't tell WTE

[TXBRONC]

I wouldn't read that much into it. Denver adds and subtracts players to the training camp roster all the way until the time of the draft.

[SmilinAssasSin27]

Draft is in less than 2 weeks. None of these moves mean a thing right now. If they did, we'd have only 71 players signed so we could make room for the draftees.

Well, they probably don't mean anything. But, as far as draftees, they don't count towards the roster until they sign.;)
