ROBERT AYERS' DEAL IS "DONE"

The Denver Broncos have been waiting exactly one week to sign both of their first round draft selections, and get them on the field for training camp. As of now, half of that objective is accomplished with defensive end/outside linebacker Robert Ayers wrapping up his deal.

"The deal is done," Ayers' agent Tony Agnone just told Fox31's Josina Anderson at 2:45pmMST.

"It's a 5 year deal," Agnone added.

The Broncos not only acquired the former Tennessee Volunteer with the 18th overall pick, Ayers was the only player they signed to address their needs in the front seven.

With the Broncos defense wrapping up last season with a 29th overall ranking after allowing an average of 374.6 yards per game, it was imperative for the club to get this deal done.

Ayers’ agent Tony Agnone was able to finalize a contract after in a “face-to-face meeting” with team representatives with his client in attendance.

Ayers’ camp thought they had a deal done with the Broncos last week Wednesday-just two days after Ayers was due to report to Dove Valley with the rest of the rookies, quarterbacks, and injured players last week Monday.

The next day FOX31 Sports was informed this initial deal had fallen apart.

Now the disconnect in the negotiations between the two sides are a thing of the past.

Several experts have already projected that Ayers will become a starter on the unit sooner rather than later based on his initial workouts with the club, his collegiate record, and the teams current player roster.

In 2008, Ayers exploded on the NFL radar his senior year when he became a starter at right end. Known as one of Tennessee’s most physically intimidating defenders, Ayers recorded 49 tackles, three sacks, and a team leading 15.5 tackles for losses. He also logged six pressures, and one interception that season.
