Thread: Broncos claim RB Justin Forsett

As expected, especially with the Bibbs injury:

Adam Schefter ‏@AdamSchefter 13m13 minutes ago

Broncos claimed former Ravens' RB Justin Forsett on waivers today, per source. Broncos' HC Gary Kubiak and Forsett reunited again.

Cameron Wolfe ‏@CameronWolfe 3s3 seconds ago

Justin Forsett had his best and only Pro Bowl season in Baltimore with Kubiak as OC in ’14. He had 1,266 rushing yards, 5.4 ypc & 8 TDs.

Kapri Bibbs' left high ankle sprain will likely keep him out for multiple weeks. Tough break for a talented back. Depth was needed.

Corresponding roster move coming shortly.

I like this pickup. Not sure how much is in the tank and what he can do with our Oline but in Baltimore he was pretty good before getting injured.

We should have went after Ray Rice.

He immediately becomes our best RB not named CJ Anderson. He isn't a huge HR threat at this stage - but he's smart and productive - about the best you could hope for off the street in Week 14.

They put Bibbs on IR.....I guess was going to take 2-4 weeks for him to recover.... Sorry UR.....he had a good game on Sunday I'm bummed for him.

I am happy about this. He has vision, toughness, and he's a good blocker. That last one is often undervalued. Although, since he isn't a speed back, he might not be on third downs that much anyway. However, his blocking ability will still be useful on the first two downs, certainly on fourth down.....

I feel good about this one.

Excellent pick up.

Couldn't we have cut Norwood or one of our long snappers? Sucks for Bibbs

They should get Steven Jackson. He is still available.

I know...I thought so too....I asked everyone everyone I could on twitter today....so outside my comfort zone. I bummed for him to finally have a good game and then get hurt....and the timing of needing that spot right away.

I like the end of your post. I think Hillman would have been better but since SD stole him JF is as good as there is out there
