July 8, 2014 2:20 pmRyan Broyles making good progress
by Larry Hartstein | CBSSports.com
Lions receiver Ryan Broyles made "impressive catches" and "flashed his speed and agility" during minicamp as he continues to progress in his return from a torn Achilles, reports the Detroit Free Press. Broyles told the paper he feels like he's finally getting the benefit of a full offseason.He was planning to work with a speed coach before training camp.
"It’s more just conditioning for the body, a lot of lightweight stuff for me to stay mobile, to stay healthy," he said. "Foot placement and things like that."
"I'm going to request that you stop posting in this thread." - circa 2008
"Why does there have to be so much immature stuff on here?" - circa 2010
Ran across this picture and thought I'd share. Jalen Saunders is apparently doing very well in Jet's training camp. It certainly wouldn't surprise me if he made the team.
Saunders is tiny by NFL standards, but he's quick and he can catch. I'd love to see him make it.

Brennan received his rookie haircut:
The Broncos projected starting RB, Monte Ball, had an appendectomy this week and is expected to miss all of the pre-season. That means Brennan will get more time to earn a spot. First game is tomorrow (Seattle @ Denver). I'll try to get some pictures of Clay and Nelson (as well as Carter, but he's not a rookie and is expected to make the team).
I have my fingers crossed for Clay, but recent Broncos training reports doesn't even mention him when they talk RBs.

good news for Tony Jefferson
Weather was not good for the Broncos/Seahawks game last night, so I didn't even bother trying to take pictures on my phone. Anyway, here's what I took from the game:
Bronsin Irwin (Seattle) - He's listed on the roster, but I couldn't find him anywhere. Anyone know if he's possibly injured?
Brennan Clay - Brennan was on the starting kick-off return team for the Broncos. He's not the designated return man (the Broncos use a single return man for kick offs), but he was the up back on kick off return. His shining moment came when the Broncos Omar Bolden started to return a kick that went deep in the endzone, and Clay kept him from bringing it out. Otherwise, Clay didn't see any action until late in the 4th quarter (he rushed 3 times for 2 yards). By the time Clay got in the game, the game was almost over and decided. He carried it a few times to run out the clock, and got no lanes to run through. With 5 RBs on the roster, the Broncos will probably give him more time next week. He's got an uphill climb to make the 53 man, but the fact that he's starting on ST is a decent sign.
Corey Nelson - Corey got into the game in the second half and looked really good. He ended the night as the Broncos leading tackler (5 tackles), and looked like he was right back to where he was prior to the injury in the TCU game. He still looks like a rookie, but I think he's definitely turning some heads. The only real downside I saw was that Nelson appeared to be the smallest WLB on the roster. He's a good 10 pounds lighter than the guys ahead of him (although he seems to be up in weight from his time at OU), but he also seems a little faster than a couple of the bigger backers on the roster. I think he's definitely making a case to end up on the roster. He also played a lot of ST with the punt team.
Quinton Carter - After Q suffered another injury last year (that forced him onto IR), I thought he may be done in Denver (if not the NFL). I clearly don't know what I'm talking about, because he looked absolutely great last night. The Broncos run a Nickle defense most of the time, and Carter started at FS, and played most of the first half. He looked solid, and doesn't appear to have missed a beat. I think he's a lock for the final roster, and will see a lot of time on the field.
That's all I have from last night. The Broncos are back in town in two weeks (against the Texans), so I'll have a report on the Sooners in the game then. If I hear anything in the mean time, I'll post it here.
Funny story: We were on a Tulsa flight that was also stopping in Denver, and someone, likely the victim of a very evil friend prank, was saying that was just informed that Peyton Manning tore his ACL. So about two dozen Denverites stuck in Tulsa layover were in "Oh noes season ruined" mode. It was like the time we all heard "media reports" about Landry and Sam dealing drugs from some Darth Husker or something.
Seriously --- DUMP THAT FRIEND.
Notes from Cards game on Sat.
Jefferson (Tony Jefferson) is playing like a man focused on being a starter in 2014 and Johnson continues to be steady. Bucannon is learning the position and has become a vital contribuator as the nickel linebacker.
It would be huge for Tony to be a part of that monster defense Arizona is building.
Gabe Ikard entered late into the rainy Packers-Titans game Saturday as Titans center. Was part of the Tennessee game winning TD drive. Didn't see any big glaring errors and seemed to be solid, but I'm not sure if there's going to be a roster spot for him next month. Hope so!
