David Boston

[Javalon]

Just an update for everyone. No more should we or shouldnt we. Boston has signed with the 9ers. Not gonna come to the broncs. I still think we could use another receiver to bolster our corps, unless Watts makes a leap to being a big time receiver, or lelie evolves into more than just a deep threat. But I guess I am glad Boston didnt come to us. The last thing we needed was a clubhouse cancer. I like the way the broncs seem to be focusing more on hi character guys now-a-days. We dont need more Dale Carters or Daryl Gardners.

EDIT:Uh-Oh
False Alarm

The story that Boston is heading to San Fran appears on 49ersnews.com. Now, a league source tells us that the 49ers have not signed -- and do not intend to sign -- free-agent receiver David Boston.

I read on profootballtalk that boston signed. But they just put up a correction that it is in fact not true. So I guess he is still out there, and available.

Man, the title of your thread scared me. I was afraid the Broncos royally screwed the pooch and signed Boston. Whew!

Sorry Jav. A little yellow journalism. Anyways looks like my info was wrong anyways. He is still out there. Continue to BE AFRAID.

Boston has so much potential, but he's never been anything but a disappointment. If he could get his sh** together, it would be great to see him in Denver.

Boston?

--- what's the latest on Boston? --- has he been in re-hab? --- working out with Cris Carter? --- June is just around the corner --- az

I say sign him. He had his best year as a pro with Plummer. Maybe they have some Karma together or something.

That is, unless someone lese offerres him a long term deal. I would not do that.

But if he can be had with an incentive-laden, one year contract...all the better.

Man....... jake to DAVID.............

Jake to Rod.............

Jake to Ashley.........


I like it.
