Broncos | Arrington moving on
Tue, 03 Mar 2009 09:45:45 -0800 Mike Klis and Lindsay H. Jones, of The Denver Post, report the Denver Broncos' deal for free-agent RB J.J. Arrington (Cardinals) has all but fallen apart. Arrington had a four-year, $10 million deal in place with the Broncos, but the deal fell apart. He has been drawing interest from other teams, including the Arizona Cardinals.

Haley knows as well as anyone what this kid could bring to the table. I think he could be a good 3rd down/situational back. Not to mention he's a pretty good return man.

Wonder if we'll have him in for a look?

I'm glad that whatever happened ... happened, I wasn't a fan of this one.

StcChief · 03-03-2009, 12:30 PM

now he's worth a look.

ChiefRon · 03-03-2009, 12:32 PM

Interesting...wtf are they doing over there in Denver anyway?

Sheesh.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't we have a 3rd down back/change of pace back with Charles? And wasn't Kevin Robinson drafted last year to return kicks? I'd like to see what he can do assuming he's healthy.

And

@ Denver. The wheels are coming off & I love it!

I'm just throwing it out there as a possibility because of his history with Haley. As far as your points, I would take him over Dantrell Savage in a heartbeat. And I don't like the idea of Kevin Robinson. In my mind he's a one trick pony. IIRC, he was back there a few times last year and didn't do anything to make me remember him.

I'm just not big on the idea of vet RBs. Not saying he's old or anything.

But they do have more wear & tear on them and change of pace RBs you can easily get in the mid to late rounds.

RB is just an easy position to fill IMO.

He only has 183 carries in his 3 year career. I look at him like a Kevin Faulk in New England's offense.

Rumor has it Arrington caught wind of McDaniels potentially trading Arrington to the lions for their 6th round draft choice.

And no, I'll pass !

If your team can't draft running backs then you're really in trouble. Save free agency money for other positions.

We've already got a faster version on the roster in Charles.

Micjones · 03-03-2009, 01:48 PM

No thanks. Johnson isn't going anywhere and we have Smith and Charles behind him.
