Would you look into signing Bly? I might sign him if I knew for sure we were going to release Springs. Remember Cerrato was jumping at the gun to trade for him last year. If we signed him to a reasonable deal would still have a heck of a trio (Hall, Rogers, Bly). What do you guys think?
Yes they did want to reel Dre in to DC. No tellin, if Springs gets the axe as he should, anything is possible.
If the dollars are sensible and we also land Hall...ya never know. And Rodgers is still here, which for the record I not only think he will be, but it would be foolish to let him go.
That would be a solid tandem at CB.

Does anyone know what the deal with Dwayne Robertson is. Former 4th pick in the 2003 draft, only 27. Also, the Patriots released Billy Gates OG, started several games last year, he is 27 also. Does any know anything about him?

Are we ever going to see any players released? Such as Jansen, Springs, Washington, and Griffin.

Slow down grasshopper! Wishful thinking on JJ going anywhere. Grif might just be around to, I hope we keep Grif.
I would think SS is a goner but who knows. I would take any bet MW's time has expired in DC.

Negative cap space to dump Dre..?
BRONCOS LOST CAP SPACE TO CUT BLY
Posted by Mike Florio on February 17, 2009, 10:49 p.m.
Though the decision to release cornerback Dre’ Bly allows the Broncos to avoid $3.25 million in 2009 base salary, Bill Williamson of ESPN.com reports that the move actually resulted in a negative cap hit for the team.
Per Williamson, the release of Bly triggers $9 million in dead money. When subtracting the money (salary and bonuses) that Bly won’t receive this year, the net cap savings is a negative $2.6 million.
Regardless, the Broncos have more than $25 million in 2009 cap space.

As said Jansen is back for sure cuz the release fee is too big this year. Griff will be back too based on a solid '08 performance. Cutting Springs, Washington, Taylor and/or Daniels this early tips our hand and is pretty unnecessary... but like you i'm getting pretty impatient :)

53 you're doin a helluva job keepin us abreast of the action... not surprised by this but also don't envy the Cards. They're set to pay him about $10 mil on the year now because the salary has to increase 20% over last year - Dansby is good but I think that's more than he's worth in the big picture of things. Cards didn't have a lot of options though...
well what do you think is it on to Michael Boley or Leroy Hill or Jon Vilma?

I don't know much about Hill right now but I think Detroit is looking hard at Vilma. I would like to know more about Boley. Before last year the Falcons were looking to sign him to a long term contract. I know he had some personal problems and some coaching changes. He has some talent and he's young. I think we should at least take a look at him.
