Denver Post writer Woody Paige comments on the 2008 Broncos position-by-position. The DP also looks at a few possible roster cuts coming this Tuesday.

Marquand Manuel and Elvis Dumervil are likely to play in the season opener against the Oakland Raiders. Broncos officials believe Tom Nalen’s knee surgery went well.

This AP article appearing on CBS4 Denver suggests Denver will sorely miss Brandon Marshall’s talent on the field due to his two or three game suspension. The Denver Post reports its possible that Marshall’s suspension could be greatly reduced.

Bad news for the San Diego Chargers as LB Shawne Merriman has two torn ligaments in his left knee. The RMN article reveals his doctors claim the injury could be career threatening if he does not have surgery to repair them.

Broncos Notes 8/17

Sunday, August 17th, 2008

The Broncos made a good showing in their 23 to 13 victory over the Dallas Cowboys in preseason action last night. The Rocky Mountain News article states “Cutler shines in Broncos win over Cowboys” and mentions rookie WR Eddie Royal certainly looked good as well. CBS4Denver states “Marshall Gets Best of Jones as Denver Tops Dallas.”

The official site of the team, Denver Broncos.com offers up a piece entitled “Offense Astounding” that is loaded with quotes from the players. Also appearing on the website is an article “Steadily Improving” that centers on the offense, Eddie Royal’s emergence as a starting receiver and the somewhat embarrassing end to cornerback Jack Williams 4th quarter interception.

This Denver Post article praises the first string offense, while another commends an improved defense and yet another reveals backup QB Patrick Ramsey braved last nights game shortly after his grandmother died on Thursday and his wife gave birth to his second child on Friday. In other news, a couple Denver Post stories mention John Lynch’s migration to the Patriots, and the second found here receives commentary from our own Horvil Tiki:

Broncos Notes 8/13

Wednesday, August 13th, 2008

Coach Shanahan and quarterback Jay Cutler spoke with the media about today’s practice with the Cowboys on DenverBroncos.com. Shanahan mentioned Nate Webster and Niko Koutovides are in a battle for starting middle linebacker that will likely last right until the end of the preseason. Cutler says he talked with Dallas quarterback coach Wade Wilson about diabetes prior to todays practices. Wade Wilson also has type 1 diabetes and played with the disease throughout his career as a quarterback for the Cowboys.

The Rocky Mountain News posts an article on Broncos off season acquisition WR Samie Parker. Parker hopes he can be a speedy deep threat for the Broncos. RMN also has a report on today’s signing of Tyrone Poole. It is interesting to see yet another cornerback signed by Denver in what is an already deep position.

Dallas cornerback Adam “Pacman” Jones says Brandon Marshall is “nowhere near” as talented as Dallas wide receiver Terrell Owens. His statement comes after today’s first practice where the cornerback looked less than stellar against Marshall. The details can be read in this article at the Denver Post. Cutler reacted to the statement with a subtle dig stating, “We go against Champ Bailey every day.” Marshall shrugged off the comments from Jones at first, but NFL.com reports (via AP) the the receiver sported “21′s no Champ” on the back of his shoulder pads written in tape for the second practice today.

In other news at the Denver Post, former Broncos safety John Lynch is visiting with the New England Patriots.
