Thanks AO!

Looks like the Broncos are ready to go to war without Scheffler and Marshall. Of course, the depth chart is still very wet cement. I hope they can take the field before the cement dries!!

Good job Marcus Thomas!!

Where's Mike Bell?

On the site, it said only two deep. so mike bell must be #3, and I will be mad if he doesnt get Number 2. Come on MIKE.

Where's Mike Bell?

John Engleberger starting at defensive end?

And I feel bad for the Mike Bell fans that were raving about how great of a backup he was. Sure he has his good days but he is way too inconsistent, as I said months ago at the end of the season.

I hope Louis Green doesn't stay at strong side, I thought our new Bates system required fast LBs? D.D. Lewis was said to be doing great by our TC reporters (thank you ) so what is the deal?

Scheffler needs to get back soon, I don't want to see Alexander getting torn apart by defenders for another season.

The main concern should be getting Marshall back (without his over-confidence) and Smith taking care of that hip because our WR depth plain out sucks.

only surprise is louis green. . .

What about Dumerville being 3rd string behind Moss and Crowder? I know he's a situational DE but seems to me he should be 2nd string.

i think that's only in regards to the base defense. . . camp reports have said that he's running with the first team in nickel and dime packages, which is what i would expect from him during the season. . .

only surprise is louis green. . .

I noticed that, too. I kept hearing what a beast Nate Webster has been, and
virtually nothing about Green, and all the sudden he's the starter.

Well, that's why the coaches are the coaches, I guess. They're paid to see
things the rest of us can't . . .

On the flip side, with Sauerbrun the starter in punting, kickoffs, and PK holding, looks like Ernster may be history.

What about Dumerville being 3rd string behind Moss and Crowder? I know he's a situational DE but seems to me he should be 2nd string.

I don't think he will ever be 2nd string.

He excels in passing situations, and he's borderline dreadful against the run, and nothing better than a liability.

I don't believe Dumervil will ever be an every down player, but he will be very productive in the situational role he excels in.

Hopefully Denver can prevent opponents from going no huddle so teams don't utilize that to keep him off the field when he needs to be on.

What about brian clark as the 3rd string, i havent really heard about him standing out and i know once marshall is back he will be 4th but i thought hixon was better.

[Horn80]

This is how I see it!
RB 20 T. Henry 37 C. Sapp 30 35 S. Young M. Bell 23 A. Hall

[BroncoBJ4MVP!!!]

I couldnt wait til I got up today to see the depth charts

Kinda sad that Mike is 3rd team.

Damn our Wr's are sick without Rod or Brandon.

We have Stokely as the #2

I like him but just doesnt seem like anything great.

I guess we will have to see how they all do on the 13th.

[AllEyezOnZach27]

We have Stokely as the #2

I like him but just doesnt seem like anything great.

I agree with you. I do think Stokely will help as a slot/3WR but I just don't feel great about him being the #2 guy. We need someone that can take the pressure off Javon. Here's to hoping that Marshall comes back healthy and tears it up!

Shanny's first change to depth chart!!!!!

Position battle

During a 2-minute drill late in the morning session, defensive tackle Jimmy Kennedy shot through to sack Cutler. Broncos coach Mike Shanahan then yanked right guard Chris Kuper out and replaced him with Montrae Holland. So while Kuper started the day as the first-string right guard, he didn't finish there. ""We got a lot of competition at a lot of positions but when a guy gives up three sacks in one day, we decided to make a move and see how the other guy responds," Shanahan said.
