Every year, at least one NFL team manages to negotiate a multi-million-dollar contract minutes after the time period for commencing discussions aimed at finalizing a contract opens.

Amazingly, these complex, big-money deals get accomplished from scratch in roughly the time it takes to bake a tray of cookies.

Eye roll.

This year, the Broncos have gotten deals in place less than a half hour into free agency.

According to Alex Marvez of FOXSports.com, the Broncos already have agreed to terms with free-agent running backs J.J. Arrington of the Cardinals, and Correll Buckhalter of the Eagles.

Nice signings, I really like the Buckhalter signing for them.

I like JJ... so screw the Broncos.

This does not surprise me since they go through about 6 or 7 RB's every season seems like.

BRONCOS TARGETING TWO TAILBACKS

Posted by Mike Florio on February 27, 2009, 1:48 a.m. EST

Within thirty minutes after free agency opened, Alex Marvez of FOXSports.com reported that the Broncos had agreed to terms with tailbacks J.J. Arrington of the Cardinals, and Correll Buckhalter of the Eagles.

As it turns out, Denver didn’t do deals with either player.  Instead, the Broncos merely lined up visits with them.

Marvez will be adjusting his report, if he hasn’t already done so.

I have confirmed with the agent that neither Arrington nor Buckhalter have signed with Denver. Don't know about any possible interest from the Bucs in either player yet.
