    Default Who's on the P.S.?

    now that cuts are in, who do you think we should look at for the practice squad?


    i'm not gonna mention players cut from other teams because i haven't really looked over the cuts around the league much-- i'll stick to our own guys for now. . .

    the players i'd be most interested in are probably darrell hackney, steve cargile, greg eslinger, one of the linebackers (either vaughn or hollowell-- not sure what their PS eligibility is), and maybe marquay mcdaniel. . .
    “When we do find that guy, we’ve got to have the continuity on the offensive side to where we can train him and develop him and get him there. This is our fourth offense in probably three or four years. Quarterbacks need to be developed. You don’t find one ready-made. We got to have a solid system in place for when we do go after whatever guy it may be, a young guy or a trade or whatnot.”

    I would bet money that Hackney makes the practice squad.

    Definitely Eslinger...but wasn't he on it last year? Is that allowed?

    I was surprised to see him cut.

    I thought he was our future center.

    I think he can spend one more year on the practice squad honestly I don't know for sure.

    he was on injured reserve last year-- but even if he'd been on the PS, i think they give them three years of eligibility, as long as they haven't played in more than a certain number of games. . .

    So does that mean he would still have up to three years of eligibility for the P.S. not that Shanahan would keep him around that long.

    i'm going to add a few players who've recently been cut from other teams to my wishlist. . .

    QB jared zabransky, OL mike otto, RB antonio pittman, and WR david clowney. . . and i'd love to see us go after LB buster davis, but i suspect he'll be signed to another team. . .

    Do we really need a clown on the team?

    we don't need any more on the message baord, that's for sure. . . .






    clowney is just the kind of receiver we need-- a speedy slot guy with some return skills would be a nice complement to our big, physical starters. . . he'd be worth trying to develop on the PS IMO. . .

    Buster Davis is very intriguing. I would at the least like to see him come in for a look see. As well as Otto.

    Buster Davis's release is a very itneresting development, and before the draft I felt Otto would be an excellent fit in Denvers Scheme, so I would love to see both come in. I think Davis especially will see some major interest, but if we could get another tackle here in Denver, with all our injuries there at present, I think it would be a great idea to bring him in.
    Temp sig till I find another one
