I was at Mile High today...and Brock had a tough game. Culliver didn't even travel with the team. But, to be fair, the entire first team D didn't look sharp today. I got the impression they were content to let Peyton complete passes downfield. On one play, for whatever reason they had Grant covering one of the Denver WR's...think it was Decker. Peyton burned them on that one, for sure. There' work to be done...but that's what preseason's for. Once the bell rings, our 1st team D will answer it.

He made a couple of decent plays, but he was targeted far more than any other corner, so the completions stand out in our minds. That said, weak performance.
He was also covering Decker who will soon be a star in this league. That being said he isn't the player he was last year before getting hurt. Also, for those wanting him gone who do you replace him with at 5th CB? If he makes the squad he will be inactive a lot of the time but I would look for us to upgrade our CB spot next year with maybe a mid round pick. As for 5th CB if we need one this year since Brock is probably better than Mosley, Purvis, Nelms, etc maybe we go with Robinson coming in like we did with Reggie Smith in the past. Instead of the 5th CB use an extra S.

I think he played himself off the team today.

He looked pretty good bowler, based off the pics.

Yeah im thinkin culliver is gonna ball out this year. hardly anyone was mentioning him last year but he was solid.. esp for a rookie. he is big , physical and has the most potential to improve this year

I think we dangle our 4th qb as trade bait to get solid player on a cb-rich team. That way we get a player that may otherwise be cut (but only bc of numbers), and give up a player that would have been cut. It's a clever way of swapping rather than hoping the player falls to you in the waiver process.
