RB Jaleel McLaughlin and four other Broncos college free agent signings to watch through OTAs

Published Sun, 24 Nov 2024 02:14:42 GMT

During the draft last month, Broncos coach Sean Payton pointed to a piece of franchise history when discussing the fact that Denver had limited draft capital and only a pair of sixth-round picks for the final day of the proceedings.“We haven’t even talked about the minute the draft ends and that 2.5-hour period where you don’t know you’re going to be doing it, but you find the last starting running back for this team that played in the Super Bowl in free agency,” Payton said.That, of course, was a nod to C.J. Anderson and the prospect of finding quality players after the draft ends.Then, during rookie minicamp, Payton reiterated a point he’d made about player acquisition earlier in the offseason.“How they got here, at this point, is of no importance to us,” he said. Payton proceeded to recount drafting running back Antonio Pittman in the fourth round in 2007 in New Orleans, then signing Pierre Thomas as an undrafted free agent.“Clearly in the middle of training camp, (Thomas) was pe...

Published Sun, 24 Nov 2024 02:14:42 GMT

People arrested for nonviolent, low-level offenses in Los Angeles County will not be forced to pay bail as a preliminary injunction takes effect Wednesday.Last week, a Superior Court judge issued the injunction in a class-action lawsuit brought by those who argue the current bail system inherently favors the wealthy.Six plaintiffs claim they suffered negative consequences because they could not afford bail, including missed work, separation from their families, and lapsed medical care.
