Jerry Butler, a former Pro Bowl receiver with the Buffalo Bills , is the Broncos' new director of player development.

His role will be to assist Broncos players with their lives away from the field.

Butler, 53, is highly regarded around the league because he is considered a pioneer with many of the NFL's player development programs, including those that address college degree completion, internships, counseling and financial education.

I'm sure ox did not help matters but this goes back to ferrot days then griese, ihop gardener, Carter, bm and jay.

All immature twits that needed someone like Eddie Mac or rod smith to mentor them.

I'm sure there are loads more but those were the guys that stuck out like sore thumbs.

Not to mention Mc Kinney. who knows had they had a guy like this around maybe things would have been different

Good. Every time my phone buzzed with a Broncos update, I dreaded reading who got arrested... Hopefully this guy can restore a little bit of respect off the field. We are not a steeler/Bengals like organization.

Cox is probably going up the river. What's sad is that Thomas, Vaughn and even Woodyard were/are all involved as well. Truly a bunch of immature kids. Hopefully this helps us out.

I can't imagine how much crap was swirling around our lockerroom last year!!

The Broncos had a gal in a similar position if memory serves me right.

As far as I am concerned...."Whatever It Takes" is the mission.

Educate the players and guide them.

Nice move Broncos.

You have to go back 20 years to change a turd like Cox, though. The guy had three kids by his sophomore year in college. That we know of.

Lesson #1 - When a chick is passed out drunk, that doesn't mean whip it out.
