The Broncos on Friday signed unrestricted free-agent tackle Brandon Gorin, it was announced.
The ninth-year offensive lineman joins the team after stints with St. Louis (2007-08), Arizona (2006), New England (2002-06) and San Diego (2001). He entered the NFL with the Chargers in 2001 as a seventh-round selection (201st overall) from Purdue University.
Gorin has appeared in 42 games (26 starts) and seven postseason contests (5 starts) in his career. Last season, he injured his shoulder during St. Louis’ preseason opener against Tennessee and was placed on injured reserve on Aug. 19.
He has had a lot of success in his career so far — in New England, he helped running back Corey Dillon set the Patriots’ single-season rushing record with 1,635 yards as he played in a career-high 14 games (10 starts) and all three of New England’s postseason outings, including its Super Bowl XXXIX win over Philadelphia.
Gorin joins an offensive line that allowed just 12 sacks last season.

he will be released after preseason
I agree with you broncoxican, he hasnt been very good with other teams and i think that he will be released after preseason.
My insiders tell me were gonna work out Sanchez Tuesday! Might be a good move.
give him a chance.
GO BRONCOS
As far as Qb’s in the draft – What does everyone think of Stephen McGee out of Texas A&M – He’s very athletic – has great size (6’3″ 225lbs) and played for an offensively conservative coach… I read that when he was recruited to TAM they had a spread offense and he was a top H.S. QB? Maybe a sleeper in the 3rd/4th round…
I am deffinetly relieved to hear all these possitive things coming from Coach McD ’bout Peyton Hillis. He was a true force last year for us during an unstable lapse. I would love to see him ove back to the FB position & just plow the road for whoever is toting the rock this season. ‘Mr.Plow, thats my name. That name again is Mr. Plow!
– Too Funny!!
Go Broncos!!
Can’t wait for the Draft!!
#12: Tyson Jackson
#18: Brian Cushing.
I can then stop from ther nervous nail-biting & enjoy the draft!!
What do you guys think??
rev79 ……Thats the 2nd time Ive heard that. There is no way we are taking a QB in the first but I think McGee is a possibility. Good call.
broncoholico…I like your ideas on Jackson and Cushing, although I wouldn’t mind either Maualuga or Mathews either.
As far as drafting a QB is concerned, I think the Broncos should just stick it out with Orton and Simms this next year (maybe for a couple of years), and then wait until next year’s draft and get Tim Tebow. I think Tebow’s not only gonna be a franchise QB, but far greater than what Cutler will end up being.
yes, it is unlikely that Raji would be around during the 12th, so if not here are my picks:
12th- Tyson Jackson DE
18th- Mauluga MLB(if he’s still around), if not then Cushing or Maybin
2nd round- Ron BraceDT
3rd- maybe Jarron gilbertDL/or Herman JohnsonOL..the biggest OL i’ve ever seen. could be our push-force in the run-game. Have him play guard
4th- Connor Barwin or the next best available DB/CB.
5th- Patrick Chung/Rashad Johnson
6th- John Parker Wilson/Graham Harrell or Stephen Mcgee
7th- take the next best player (preferably a DB)
I’m sold on us going 3-4. A lot of plays can be generated for this system. We can never have too many LBs in a 3-4. Generate so much pressure that even mediocre DBs/CBs (when comparing to Champ..lol) can get turnovers. I’d would picture us using Dawkins the way the Eagles used him, in blitz packages where he does most of his damage, and keep Barrett and Hill roaming the back, or the best coverage DB.
If Brandon Marshall is suspended for half the season, then it could change the middle of the draft. They might look for the next best WR. But considering how McDaniels system doesnt necessarily covet super star WR (except Moss) it might not be a problem.
Thats what I think.
Patrick Chung will not be around 5th round buddy… He is considered to be the 2nd (if not best for some) rated safety… He’ll be gone mid/end 2nd round…
harrell late for sure…he’ll be a nice safe experiment with alot of upside and not cost a whole lot to get…then next season look into getting tebow or mcoy…
Well i am very excited for the draft. I think we should stick to our picks and hope for DE jackson and LB everette brown. I am really looking forward to this season. We will surprise alot of people including some of the poser fans here on this site. I can just see Josh McDaniels holding the Lombardi trophy, singing I will survive. LOL.
Or maybe he can sing Toby Keith, How Do You Like Me Now. If he fails (he wont) he should sing I should Have Been a Cowboy.
yea I know BRONCOBAILEY99, Chung would most likely be out by then..its just wishful thinking that he’d still be there..lol…so then get the next best available DB I guess?
could be a good back up since we lost pears
I’m the new guy and this is what I think the broncos should do with their two draft picks. Than get Jason Taylor
Brian Cushing OLB From Southern Cal
Tyson Jackson DE from LSU
could you imagine this Brain,Champ,D,J,and brain.
and Tyson,Elvis,Jarvis,And Jason. on our line.
1st Round
12 Jackson
18 Ayers (From Chicago)
2nd Rd
Ron Brace or Hood
3rd Rd
Rhett Bomar QB
A Caldwell Guard/Center Alabama (From Chicago)
kase78matt, your right! The Broncos should’ve never let Pears get away.
Brandon Gorin, may be able to help during the transition of the O.
TIME OF POSSESSION ! ! !
GO BRONCOS ! ! !
How about:
1st round
12 BJ Raji
18 Jackson
2nd round
James Laurinaitis
Have heard Laurinaitis is overrated and not worth of 1st round pick so get him in the second. Having these three on defense would be great. I think with these first three picks the broncos must pick three guys that can start on D right away.
this is driving me absolutly crazy i cannot stop thinking about draft day its almost as good as the first game… i know the anticipation is always better so lets hope for curry and raji to both fall in our laps… there is to hoping and praying if not i am great w jackson and rey…

this isnt even a good blog anymore every post under moderation everytime cant post comments so close to each other pointless
Ah Atwater thats why i think there working out Sanchez on Tuesday. Its so many Defensive people that Mike told Xanders fit his system in the draft. They have alot more options than people think. I was blogging on Twitter with Eddie (Royal) he like Sanchez too . That why he said he didnt want to step on any toes who are already here.
Atwaters da man, love the scouting report on Lee Robinson. He could definately be a sleeper for us late in the draft.
There is no way we will go after sanchez. It would be a waste to give up the picks we have to move up and get him. The hole reason we traded cutler to chicago was because we could get the picks and a proven qb in Orton. We don’t need a replacement for cutler in this draft, we got that in Orton. He is only 27, and loaded with potiential. McD will mold him into the qb we need, and if not, there will be plenty to choose from next year. Lets buils a young talented defense with these picks, and Nolan will turn them into a force to be reconded with.
If we do draft a qb this year I hope its Harrell, late.
Go Broncos!
Hey Rebel,
I hope the brass listens. We definitely need to take 2 defensive players in the 1st round. After that i am okay with a QB after that. prefer defense, but can handle the pick, if we get 2 studs on D first.
This draft has to be all about defense. With the first 3 picks, we need to address DT, DE and LB. A dream come true, however unlikely, would be:
12 – Raji; 18 – Tyson Jackson; 48 – Laurianaitis;
If we get Jackson at 12, we should complement with a run stopping ILB, preferrably Maualuga, and take the next best tackle – Ron Brace – if available. With strong DE’s (Jackson, Thomas, Clemons, Peterson) I don’t see OLB as that big of a need. Dumervil, Moss and Boss Bailey should fill this position nicely.
If we can’t get Jackson, who can make the LB’s behind him better, a first-class pass rushing OLB would be necessary.
On sunday, we should address depth at DB, OG/C, get a mid-round QB, RB etc..
I am nervously looking forward to the draft.
This signing so late in FA means just that McD knows this guy well (having worked with him in NE) and brings experience in this new system to the OL. At least depth, now Pears’ not a Bronco anymore.
I like a lot of the draft options posted. But nobody knows what’s going to happen this weekend. As the majority are trying to fix the old system defense, without knowledge of what are new coaches thinking or trying to get with the new defense system.
Maybe Nolan has seen good things in what he already has, and the need is on other spot. Maybe Orton and Sims both rock. Maybe it’s time for a special teams’ playmaker. Maybe nothing of what I’ve said. Who knows.
Personally, I’d like Raji at 12th, and if he’s gone by then, Jackson or Maualuga. But again, this taking the old defensive scheme.
Go Broncooos!
Did I miss something? Did D.J. Williams get cut.? He’s the best LB we have. He can play outside and inside. So if we draft Jackson then put Boss at OLB on the same side. Then ya’ll are putting Doom on the other side and then draft Maualuga for inside with Andre’. Its olny natural D.J. plays the otherside. No where in any of this post have I seen D.J. name in any of them. Well maybe one if any(thinkin I didn’t see all the old comments). If Doom play OLB (my thinking is because he is not that good at DE on run defense and OLB in a 3-4 would be better)then put Boss on the otherside. Andre is the one of the starting inside LBs. Thats why they brought him in for. Draft Jackson(good pick) then another inside Lb?(not a good pick)Put D.j. at the other inside LB And get a 3-4 NT! I think sometimes people just be posting just to post! lol Man
just adding depth to the line, good move.
If I’m not mistaking didn’t an ordinary Joe(as you say it) win superbowls. Lets see there was Brady(its true fans with the system make him great He couldn’t beat out Griese in college)Dillfer, Brad Johnson, Mark Rippen, and I could go on and on. All of the bitter I can’t believe we traded our guy fan fell in love with all the SportCenter highlights. I remember a time when you played a Mike Shannahan team. WE have players on the D-line to stop the run like Neil,Trevor,Traylor, Williams, and so on. The reason Ray Rhodes and Jim Bates left is that Mike drafted playes that would stop his offense not mesh with the scheme the D had at the time. For years Peyton was killing us so we let that big run stopping DEs and DTs go. Which made us start drafting small speed rushers. The thinking was our DB are getting beat because were not getting any pressure on him. Now look at the games when we play a team that has a since or play calling of a westcoast offense we shut them down. Now look at the team that run that old Jimmy Johnson type Dallas offense or Parcel’s Giant type of O we get hammered. Why is that? (I’ll see what comes down the pike before I post my answer. I’ll give some really tactical football head to drop there thoughts.) FYI BRANDON WILL NOT BE SUSPENDED! You never had an old girlfriend mad at you hitting on you so you push her off you and she run call the police saying you hit her? Then police start talking to her and then find out she did it over spite! Thats his situation he’s good!
I fell you on the DB and S position but Barret has to learn from Dawkins. The death of Darrent hurt us more than people realize. Champ was never the problem but I’ve seen only 2 true games when he got killed back in the day when Carson and Chad tourched us. Had Champ Questioning his greatness.(no pun intended with the name phrase lol) Also this year at chargers when it was clear he should not be out there but what could he do we had none else! Dre’ used to get tourched FREQUENTLY! In the Draft when we got Darrent we Drafted 2 more DBs who are not with us and Foxworth is the only one we got something for. Darrent was better that DRe’ and 9 years younger that hurt us dramaticly! If Champ stay healthy he got give (im not even gonna try and spell his name so the guy from the Raiders) lol Mike trid to switch but it was to late if you remember in the 2nd game of the season they had at times Doom at OLB in the 3-4 but thats how the Chargers came back( the Sproils screen play for example) He thought he had the time to do this we know now he didn’t. They don’t need any LBs They need 2 DEs and 1 big Ron Brace type (hint) of NT. The Broncos brass knows this so thats why they working out Sanchez because its only one DE worth the 1st rd pick.(Jackson)Fellas its sad to say but I think the Lions are not going to take Stafford so Sanchez is gonna drop. Jags are gonna keep there pick if Crabtree falls as well. (which I think he will)Stafford will go to San Fran And we’ll take SAnchez thats why MCd didn’t really go for real. HE gonna put that pick all on X and McCoy. So all ya get your hate ready cuz its gonna happen! Best player there type of pick! With the top 3 picks its all about economy their gonna be safe that sorry! We need to Beef up the D-Line. Jackson Well be there at 18. You need to look at need rather than the bright lights of name and college they went to. They put ownus on a QB comming out of the first mini camp. So after they finish pleasing all the Cutler fans they will do the D-line then back up DBs and Special team players. We need a Return guy to help out Eddie remember he’s a starting WR to and I think toward the end of the year he ran out of gas some. Thats why you see all those big plays but he get caught from behind later on in the season? Who was the return guy before? GOD REST HIS SOUL DARRENT WILLIAMS!
wow greatness…way to post up the same thing in different blogs…is there seriously ANYTHING new to talk about??..maybe we send our #12 #18 to move up and take a stud kicker..problem solved…just remember who said it first…TOOLS…!!!
