Lacy is just a fat ass who likes eating more than he likes running.

Yeah, but Ball beats up women and GETS beat up by men: If I had to pick one or the other, I'd still prefer Lacy.

Neither one would belong on today's roster . . .

Yeah, it's the Booker thing. With the tendency of our RB crew to get busted up with injuries every year, I just like to have a lot of em on hand. Ridley and Juwan both looked good, with Juwan serving the extra benefit of being a good special teamer who can fill in at FB if anything happens to the Nebraska Nightmare. You just can't keep em all. It's a good problem to have.

I must admit if I was making the decision would be tempted to put Booker on the shelf for 6 weeks and keep either Ridley or Thompson. They wouldn't want to keep Ridley unless they thought it was for the year, however, due to guaranteeing his contract if he's on the roster week 1.

The way Ridley runs the ball, it might not seem such a bad proposition. I personally haven't seen Booker run it any better than that . . .

Love to see him make the practice squad. We'll probably need a spare DE the way we go through defensive line players. It's like playing football is an injury risk or something.

Broncos have waived ILB Quentin Gause. Possible practice squad candidate.

Broncos can still get crafty and bring Ridley back after the start of the season if nobody picks him up without that season-long guaranteed salary. He should definitely have a job in the NFL this year.

I liked what I saw from Soto. Would have no problem bringing him back to the PS.

And cut which rb?
Henderson
Charles
Cj
Booker
Or our only fb?

Ridley is gone barring injury.

How many have been waived, and how many more to get to 53?
