Broncos To Brandon: “See You In Camp”

We mentioned earlier today that we’ve heard that the Broncos do not plan to trade receiver Brandon Marshall. Though it might be posturing in order to drive up the trade value, the team is now adopting this stance for the rest of the NFL world to see. “We look forward to having Brandon at training camp,” coach Josh McDaniels said Tuesday, according to the Denver Post. That statement contrasts sharply with agent Kennard McGuire’s contention that owner Pat Bowlen told Marshall last Friday that Marshall’s desire to be traded will be accommodated. And that raises a separate point, in our view. Given that Bowlen publicly has acknowledged that he’s suffering from short-term memory lapses, it might make sense for him to refrain from conducting one-on-one meetings with players who might emerge from the discussion with a recollection that Bowlen might have trouble refuting.
