Denver Broncos Quietly Win The Offseason; Now Sign A Former Giant

If you follow any coverage of the NFL offseason, hopefully by now you're encouraged by the moves that the Denver Broncos have made to bolster a roster that already beat the odds last season to make the playoffs. Yes, last season ended in a playoff loss at Buffalo, but the fact that many had picked the team to be the worst in the league and they defied those odds was already pretty cool.

Poke around some of the NFL gossip and analysis sites... one thing everyone seems to be agreeing on - and we haven't even gotten to the draft yet - is that Denver is making the right moves and the Broncos are on the way up!
