Fox 31 Alert: I just got off the phone with R. Clady. He spoke briefly. Clady says that he's hopeful he will be "ready for training camp."

# When I asked Clady which knee it was, he said "left." The call then ended understandably. The Broncos will not confirm Clady's or info 14 minutes ago via TweetDeck

2 sources told Fox31 they heard Clady had some type of procedure on his knee. When I asked Clady did you have surgery he replied "yeah."

Clady may be seriously hurt. It's time to wrap up that trade for Jammal Brown ASAP.

Broncos Pro Bowl OT Ryan Clady tore his patella tendon playing basketball. He told people he will miss three months. Could've been worse.

NFLPA president Kevin Mawae puzzled he's still free agent - ESPN

If we are adopting the "Win NOW" philosophy, then why the hell isn't this guy on our roster? He is heads and shoulders better than anyone we have right now as an interior line.

If we are filling spots with winners and old guys, UHHHHHHHHHHH, why not Mawae???

(plus, according to the story, the guy could be gotten for a frikkin song)

I was going to post something similar too. Seriously, since Shanny is so big on competition at every position, bring him in. What competition is there on the OL. In that other thread, everyone on here pretty wel agrees who are starters will be. Even if we just signed him for depth, I'd bet he'd wind up starting.

Yeah, I'm not getting this at all!

I guess shanahan doesn't feel like the 8 time pro bowler could improve the strait solid line we have as of now.

Shanny can do no wrong????? Like passing Bruce Campbell up in the 4TH ROUND..........?
I'm getting a little tired of the "gotta have faith" BS. Anyone ever thought that he is doing exactly what players usually do when they come to DC? Cashing a HUGE paycheck at their local bank? Sorry, but Donovan mcnabb and Artis Hicks, along with 8 TE's and aging RB's do not get me all excited.

you complain about aging rb's yet you want an 8 time pro bowler no one else wants? kinda like passing on campbell there is always a reason and atleast now that reason is not vinny cerrato

Well, the aging RBs we've gotten have had either not-so-great 2009 season (LJ) or had injury issues (Parker). However, Mawae had a solid season last year and given the needs of our line, he could be a solid stop gap. I would go out on a limb and say that he is a better lineman than Hicks.

This team puzzles me when it comes to the offensive line. Don't get me wrong, it's great that they got T. Williams, and hell you could say Capers is nice future depth. But, I see things like this and wonder if the coaches are putting too much trust in the returning linemen. I guess the only thing I imagine as to why Mawae hasn't been picked up is maybe because he doesn't fit MS' locking scheme?

I don't know how well he cuts but he's from a ZBS and can get upfield quite well. There's a vid of a Chris Johnson run where Mawae and another lineman are still trucking 30 yards past the line of scrimmage. I know that you can't base everything on one play, but it just shows that he's got the motor still.

Really? You're gonna whine about passing up Bruce Campbell? And signing one blocking TE?

If you get upset that someone gets skipped in the 4th that you wanted and can only see them picking a single player, you're always going to be upset.

AND that 8 time probowler is 39 years old. I wouldn't be upset if we signed Mawae, but I am not gonna cry a tear if we don't.

[Mechanix544]

my point is if we are going to ignore the age issue with the RB's, why not get a guy who has PROVEN that he plays at a pro bowl level at the age of 37/38? It seems like a no brainer to me.
