Elvis Dumervil signs his tender!

Great news today OLB Elvis Dumervil siged his one year tender and is officialy under contract with the Denver Broncos this year. That's great to hear and we are guranteed another year of Elvis's services. Dumervil lead the leauge last year in sacks and has proven to be a great asset to our defense. Even better they are still working on a long term extension to keep Dumervil in Denver for years to come. We should see a deal come down the pike soon!

A few other tibits of news out of Denver the team's coaches, management and players are all impresed with their two first round picks WR Deymarius Thomas and QB Tim Tebow. Champ Bailey has nothing but great things to say about Tebow's work ethic and the Denver legend Rod Smith was working with Thomas over the weekend (wich I am thrilled to hear) and is very excited about the potential he has. Lots of exciting news and players and a great time to be a Broncos fan we are not far from being back in the playoffs.

Another AFC West team on the west coast is making news about their unrestricted free agents and No it's not Oakland! San Diego WR Vincent Jackson along with LT Marcus McNeil have both stated they are refusing to sign their tenders and are willing to risk siting out the regular season. If their agents are worth a damn they will convince both to sign thier tenders before the June 15 tender (wich is tomorrow yikes!) and then try to force a trade. San Diego has stated they are not going to work on a long term contract with CBA issues still uncertain. It seems to me that even if they sign their tenders that they are still going to want a trade I say trade Vincent Jackson to WR needy Chicago and get a high 2011 draft pick and an impact player on defense if the two sides can't come together.  This is a scarry thought for San Diego doesn't have as good of depth at WR they need Vincent Jackson to keep up that potent passing game. 

Now for some speculation. The Chargers may want to get on the phone with TO to replace Jackson. It would be a short term fix and they would need to look at the 2011 draft for a long term replacement. Can you imagine Phillip Rivers and TO my god every single player would walk out of the building having to deal with thoes two divas I can see the sideline fights and distractions now and the grin on my face.
