Not a minute after posting news on the Orange and Blue signing Manuel, Marlon McCree shows up on the newswire. The Rocky Mountain News is reporting that McCree has decided to sign with Denver in place of his other candidate Buffalo. The terms have yet to be disclosed. He has started 30 games over the last two seasons for the San Diego Chargers. In the article they cite that McCree will directly challenge Lynch for his position. This doesn’t exactly make sense that they would put up big free agent money to land McCree (arguably the best safety available on the market) after giving a new contract to Lynch for both to battle it out in camp. I would be willing to bet Slowik has a scheme in mind to get both talents on the field at the same time even though they are both designated as Strong Free Safeties by default.
