Smith OK after taking hard hit
By Bill Williamson
Denver Post Staff Writer



Honolulu - Rod Smith sat dejected in the locker room.

Smith, 35, sat with a bruised right eye and a cut that was going to be stitched a few minutes later. He was bloody. Yet, Smith wasn't feeling sorry for himself. The emotion was anger - directed at Rod Smith.

"That's typical Rod," Broncos safety John Lynch said.

Smith, who gave his Broncos coaches a major scare, had to be helped off the field in the final seconds of the NFC's 23-17 Pro Bowl victory Sunday night. After missing a catch that would have put the AFC in the red zone with about 20 seconds remaining, Smith was hit in the head by the leg of Dallas' Troy Williams. Smith's helmet was abruptly turned around, and Smith suffered the cut. He was on the ground for several moments and was taken out of the game.

Yet, afterward - Smith and coach Mike Shanahan said he is fine - Smith couldn't believe he didn't hold onto the ball.

"I was hurt, but I'm not worried about that," Smith said. "I wanted to win. ... I let my teammates down. I should have made that play."

After the first-down play from the NFC's 49-yard line, quarterback Steve McNair threw two interceptions and was sacked on fourth down.

"We could have won," Smith said. "We had too many missed opportunities, including mine."

Lelie not going anywhere

Internet rumors have floated that the Broncos are shopping receiver Ashley Lelie, who is in the final season of his contract. Those rumors are false, Shanahan said.

"Of course they are not true, of course," Shanahan said. "This is the time of year all kinds of crazy things are said."

In Saturday's Sacramento Bee, a San Francisco official denied Internet reports that the 49ers were considering trading a first-day draft pick for Lelie. One of Lelie's agents, Doug Hendrickson, said he saw the rumors and was baffled by them.

"They are not true," Hendrickson said. "We have not heard


Good news about Ash and Rod, I want at least 1-2 more years out of that tandem and if we add another good receiver or TE all the better.

If he really isn't going anywhere we should try to sign him to an extension this off season. He had a fairly quiet year this season, and if he starts adding TDs to his resume he'll command big money on the open market. Although I think he'll be a RFA?

With TD and the Duke coming out against the TO signing I think the cahnces of TO in Denver are slipping, and we need Lelie to take his game to the next level. We need to get a posession guy that can take some of the load off of Rod. I think we're better off at WR than we look on paper.

I think Devoe has huge upside, and I don't think that Watts is done. Terrell is on the roster, and given a full camp to compete he could be an asset to the Broncos next year. A lot of inexperience at the position, but a lot of talent as well. If Adams is #3 on the depth chart again we're in trouble.

LOL Seriously, I like Lelie, my recent comments about him have mainly been to defend the guys who have been ludicrously blamed by many for some of his shortcomings (i.e. Jake Plummer, the stupid ass coaches who don't know how to use him properly). I will be glad to see him stay, but I'm just saying that what Shanny tells the press does not mean very much.

Why on earth would Shanahan trade Lelie???

At the present time he'll get no value whatsoever plus he's taking a starter out of the line-up who's cap hit is minimal.

Yeah, I know. I've tried to be pretty fair about ASH. I think he can really turn into something, but I think ASH is just going to take time to take it to another level, but I think he will get there.

Taco John
02-13-2006, 11:42 AM
At this time, I'm going to go ahead and stand behind the report. Despite Shanahan's denials, my sources insist that this story is true... That San Fransico has put out feelers for Lelie... That Sundquist has dropped Lelie's names with other GMs, starting with Miami back when the Ricky Williams talk first started.

All that being said, if the Broncos don't get what they want for the guy, they won't trade him (as witnessed by the Trevor Pryce dealings of last year).

I'm told this is all back door dealing at the moment, and that Shanahan might be himself in a position of plausible deniability until Sunny is able to get things more firm...

I'll keep monitoring this one...

Wow! I cannot believe how many people continue to drink the Ashley Grape Kool Aid. Great?? Dude, your definition of great is way off from mine.

A Receiver who runs 3 or 4 out of 10 standard routes is great?? A guy who makes plays almost exclusively along the sideline is great??

I want my number 2 to make all of the routes and catches and be capable of making plays on every quadrant of the football field. Not just outside the hashmarks.

This guy makes 4-5 spectacular catches every year and people swoon. I don't.

Im a homer, no doubt. :homer:

But over his first few years he has learned to run more routes (evidence of the Oakland game when they told him they were going to use him more).

Also he has become a good blocker.

I realize it cant be all the gameplan that takes Lelie out of most games, but without him, a lot of offense would be ineffective. Him driving the safeties out lets Rod catch his stuff.

That's about as low rent as it gets, but what else do you expect from him? Bob's a complete ****stain.

As for Lelie, if these Owens rumors are true, the Broncos either need to extend him now or get used to the idea that this will be his last year in a Broncos uniform. Going into a contract year and he's getting bumped down to 3rd on the depth chart? Yeah, I'm sure he'll be real thrilled at the idea of re-upping with the Broncos after that.

NFLBRONCO
02-14-2006, 01:17 AM
The Broncos are likely to search for a speedy pass rusher in the offseason, but it is an expensive position in free agency and it's a difficult talent to find in the draft.

Some members of the organization believe the Broncos already possess a potential standout speedy rusher in Corey Jackson, who spent last season on the practice squad.

Jackson, who played sparingly in college, was a star in NFL Europe and improved steadily last season. At 6-feet-7, 260 pounds, Jackson has a chance to develop quickly.

"He can be a difference-maker," Denver Pro Bowl linebacker Al Wilson said. "I really think that. He can be special. He's a guy who can fill a role for us."

Every WR in the league would benefit if their QB could throw them a perfect spiral deep and hit them in stride.

But that doesn't happen in real life. What you have are a rare few QBs that can do that. Hell, Collins is supposed to be one of the best at throwing the deep ball and with weapons like Moss and Porter he still struggled.

And since when is the deep ball such a vital part of the offense? Watch almost any game and offenses throw deep passes maybe 3-4 times a game if they have a deep threat and a QB that can throw it long to begin with!

The point is, almost every single WR in the league has to adjust to poor/average passes. The good/great ones do it all the time when they fight for the ball, use their physical skills to outjump and overpower CBs that are usually smaller than a 6-3 Lelie.

Since when did it become ok for a WR to suck if his QB doesn't throw him a perfectly timed spiral that hits him in stride every single time?

Good news all the way around. Now if we add TO i'll feel a lot better about it with Ash and Rod holding down the fort. Shanny should pair TO and Lelie together and use Rod as a much more active than normal #3 and saftey valve.

Ash stretchign the field and keeping one half of the field honest will give TO a ton of opportunity and vice versa. They try to double team TO and ASh will eat them up, so both will get single coverage and no one in the NFL can cover both of them one on one.

And with Rod handling the underneath stuff we'd jhhave an awesoem passing game.

Assuming TO plays nice which I think he will, the first year at least, after all this stink he has made this year.

Look you dimwit, they allready have had to make another rule to keep this animal from horsecollar tackles...and your defending this cheap shot artist? He's got enough talent to play clean...he's a punk and I'm glad we don't have him. You don't play to injure people unless your an asshole.

And don't come back with that cut blocking crap either...it's zone blocking, and if executed right is perfectly legal. Players get hurt on the lines every game for all kinds of reasons. We run that scheme because it works! Look at Atlanta!

How you can say that wasn't a worthless piece of crap cheap shot is amazing.

TO, Rod,Lelie and the Putz? You putting in a whole new variable....yeah, it's a risk, but I honestly think that T.O. is going to damage control, if he has any sense. Season in the New Duke after he gets back from Europe...that's a pretty good cast.

We kinda need T.O. or it wouldn't be bandied around. I keep telling you people...unless Saban gives him a multi-year deal or maybe Parcells or Pimp Daddy in Zona...he's coming here.

If you spent less time sitcking it in your cat and more time actually watching the game it would be obvious that you couldn't be anymore wrong.

Rod was not laying on the ground when he threw himself at him. The ball was bouncing near his hands...it was a cathacble ball. Both of the guys were in the air at the same time.

Rod almost caught it...

Williams was playing defense.

When someone is about to catch a ball you hit them to try to keep them from catching the ball. He was playing defense. I really am sorry you are a complete pussy and can't see that defense was being played but to charectarize it as Rod laying around and Williams seeing that and then hitting him is just false. Its obvious from the video.

Hulamau
02-14-2006, 03:03 PM
Actually Zach the ball had already gone off Rods hands and had hit the turf before Williams cracked on Rod. Roy was in the process of leaving his feet, but definitely saw the incomplete as he was looking right at him (assuming he didnt have his eyes closed), and could have pulled up in plenty of time, and yet he actually laid the wood on heavy after the fact. I ran the replay three times and at first glance I also thought it was just a good hard nosed defensive play too, but RW's desire to put a lick on someone got the better of his judgment there.

Luckily Rod isnt seriously hurt.

I'm appalled you think this is acceptable behavior! Why does it matter where you said it you dumbass. Once when I younger a just as stupid as you are, I told my friend what a stupid bitch I thought this girl I was dating was. Word got back to her and man was she pissed. Somehow she didn't accept that since I didn't tell her directly to her face it didn't count. Go figure.

[QUOTE=broncohaven]If he really isn't going anywhere we should try to sign him to an extension this off season. He had a fairly quiet year this season, and if he starts adding TDs to his resume he'll command big money on the open market. Although I think he'll be a RFA?


Denver doens't do sensible things like lock up good players to long term contracts. Examples: Reggie Hayward and Bert Berry

Yeah your right like, Lepsis, Nalen, Wilson, Smith, Warren, Hamilton. All have been resigned to long term deals, but your two examples are much better.

No way will Denver let there number 2 receiver go when all they have are Rod and Lelie. SHort of Denver getting a major compensation from the 49ers maybe there first round pick, no way will it happen this season. I think Shanny is banking on Lelie having a monster contract year and getting a solid number 3 to move in when Lelie leaves next off season, or to stay at number 3 if denver decides to keep Lelie next season.

I doubt he gets traded this year
No way will the 49ers give up there first rounder for him

MHS, that is bush league. They are called private messages for a reason.

Don't litter the board with this.

It's not bush league. You got busted.

I cannot believe some of the crap you say on other boards and then come here like nothing happened. What is bush league is that you think nobody should call you on it.

I think there have been a half dozen Lelie threads. I think he would be a decent fit for the 49ers but I don't know. An hour is a long time on draft day this is like a million miles away speculating.

If you spent less time sitcking it in your cat and more time actually watching the game it would be obvious that you couldn't be anymore wrong.

Rod was not laying on the ground when he threw himself at him. The ball was bouncing near his hands...it was a cathacble ball. Both of the guys were in the air at the same time.

Rod almost caught it...

Williams was playing defense.

When someone is about to catch a ball you hit them to try to keep them from catching the ball. He was playing defense. I really am sorry you are a complete p***Y and can't see that defense was being played but to charectarize it as Rod laying around and Williams seeing that and then hitting him is just false. Its obvious from the video.

Lelie isn't going anywhere? I am starting to wonder why not.
