chris henry is good but mike shanahan doesnt like those type of players. henry has issues and he dont like that marshall is lucky is is so good or he’d probably be gone. i mean travis henry chris henry pot head and pothead/ crackhead.

I agree with you in a way rambo. But to pick up a receiver that is new to the offense doesn’t make a whole lot of sense. Martinez in his second year with the broncos knows the offense well and is a great route runner he has showed this last pre-season. I think it’s a great idea bringing him back,afterall who knows better than Shanny.

not trying to be rude…but why????? honesty out off all the WR’s to bring back….or have on the roster. we get martinez and russell…..even…i mean i dont get it one bit…we get cedric wilson from the browns and dont even give him a shot…we only know what he can do in big games when he killed us in 05” at home for the chance to go to the superbowl….we could have went after a chris henry…which was an option since he can now play!! i think he was the man!!! or a reche caldwell..which is game ready and makes plays…just ask TOM BRADY!! Or a Joe Horn which im sure still has a lil game left!!! or Travis Taylor

Welcome back Marty, glad to see you stayed in shape. It’s a shame that Russell may not play again, he had promise as a 4th wideout in the system. Can Jackson EVER stay healthy again? I SWEAR unless the guy’s the #2 or #1 WR he’s suddenly “injured”. Anyone else noticing that or is it just me?

Glad to hear Martinez is back. He knows the offense and seemed to run good routes last year. His punt return against the Titans was the first we had had returned for a TD in quite a while.

Russel had skills and i am sad he went down but i was always more of a Martinez fan (probably cuz he has been with us longer). When i heard Russell went down, I knew they would sign Martinez back by Wednesday.

I was sad when he was cut and didnt think he shoulda been cut. He can do the punt returns and both him and royal can handle the kick off returns. Royal is just too much of an asset in special teams to leave him completely out of it.

Nice pick up this week…Now if we could only get John Lynch as a safety/linebacker to improve our defense but sadly that wont happen

PS: Denvers D isnt that bad. they do well for a D whose offense scores so much and so fast that they are always on the field. They do well but always randomly give up big plays that make their play look worse than it is.

RNST, that was the exact same post you put on the Saccomano blog. Yes, it would be nice to have a defensive line star, but in the interim, I’m glad to have Martinez back. Russell is a good player, but Martinez is SO much better. GO BRONCOS!!! Let’s crush the Bucs.

Hey,

I know this is off subject, but I think the Broncos should sign Lane Kiffin as an assistant coach or something…just to piss the old man off!!!!

Thank god he is back i didnt want him to get cut i thought he was pretty good at running routs atleast that is what one bronco said so im pretty glad he is back with denver. He can catch better than Russel i can tell you that much remember how many drops russel had in the preseason and Martinez hung on to that ball Patrick Ramsey through to try and kill him. I wish the best for Russel though
