Here’s the Denver Post’s report of the deal, this guy seems like he will add some much needed depth to the DE position.

“In the deal the Broncos have received receive Smith and a 7th-round pick in the 2010 draft. In exchange, New England will receive a fifth-round pick in the 2010 draft.”


In other possible breaking news, BroncoTalk noticed NFL Network’s Jamie Dukes wrote “Bombshell alert coming out of Denver,” on his Twitter page, and he claims fellow NFL Network reporter Jason LaCanfora will post the story on his blog later tonight.

Update: Not quite a “bombshell,” but someone in the Broncos PR supposedly told players not to be too excited about Marshall’s court victory after last week’s game and the organization apologized to Marshall for this. Obviously this doesn’t help any negotiations between the Broncos and Marshall.
