Recommended Posts

Yes....here's another article (this time from our friends in Denver) about Brown's inability to pick a team (trying to up his $$$$$).

(FYI: I did search for this and didn't see the article, if someone has already posted---merge and my apologizes;) )

Brown still mulling future

Defensive end Courtney Brown's decision to play next season is inadvertently causing a free agency logjam.

Denver is waiting to see what Brown is going to do and is holding off on its other free-agent plans. Denver has interest in Baltimore defensive end Marques Douglas and Atlanta defensive tackle Ed Jasper.

Brown had told teams he'd make a decision Thursday and then by Friday but continues to ponder. Washington and the Broncos, who have been in nearly daily contact with Brown, are the front-runners. Jacksonville is also in the mix.

Douglas also is getting interest from Cleveland, and Jasper from Tampa Bay and Oakland.

Also a little tidbit for the Champ Bailey fans out there (the few remaining ):

At the Pro Bowl, Champ Bailey said his objective this offseason was to become an option for the Broncos offensively.

The team is taking him up on it, showing a desire to work with Bailey as a receiver.

Denver coach Mike Shanahan said this week at the NFL owners meetings the team plans to work closely with Bailey on offense during the offseason camps.

"That will be a big part of what Champ does in the offseason," Shanahan said. "We're going to see what he can do ... to work some as a receiver."

The All-Pro cornerback worked some on offense in the early offseason last year. Bailey played about 20 offensive snaps and said he has to become a more consistent route runner.

Shanahan said the idea of having Bailey on offense is well worth whatever extra time it takes.

"That speed of his makes it really appealing," Shanahan said.

Word of advice Mike, Don't make Roland a punt returner
