Knowing that we let Myers go there could be a positive sign on his rehabilitation but as far as I know there hasnt been much news on him.
Anybody know of anything about his return really?

"I don't know if that's what it means, but I'm perfectly fine," Nalen said. "I've been full strength the past two months. I've been working out with Ben and he's perfectly fine."

That quote right there is easily the best Bronco news all off-season.

With all the talk of losing Myers and courting Wiegmann, don't forget that Ben Hamilton is the real backup center ... and he's just 30 now, so if he truly is healthy - and I read where he says he's 100% - he could start at C for five or more years after Nalen retires.

Last month Ben got a clean bill of health from the clinic in Pittsburgh that has been treating him. No residual effects. They told him that his chances of getting a concussion from football are now about the same as they would be for anyone else.
You never know, but he says he feels 100% and is looking forward to the season.

Well this goes against just about any published scientific data reguarding concussion syndromes.

Is this Fact or Fiction?

All facts except speculating on the possibility he "could start at C for five or more years." ???

Yes
Hamy will have many eyes watching him in spring drills and when hitting starts.
Hopefully he goes with the new helmet and can avoid the concussions.

I've decided to join the camp than thinks Fenton will be too legit - too legit to quit! If he can develop into a solid center, then our situation at Guard won't be too shabby. Depends on how Kuper looks kicking outside and who we draft, but I'm not ready to let the sky fall down before we see how everyone looks once the season gets going. Hopefully Nalen holds up one more season or we're going to have issues.
