Vin+ 3,121 Posted November 25, 2014 Broncos waived K Brandon McManus. The Super Bowl-contending Broncos simply couldn't stick with McManus any longer, as he'd missed four of his first 13 field-goal attempts, including one in Sunday's win over the Dolphins. Only 23, McManus should spend at least a few more years hanging around the fringes of the league. Source: Denver Post Broncos signed K Connor Barth. He'll replace second-year undrafted free agent Brandon McManus, who's been waived after missing four of his first 13 field-goal attempts. Barth has been accurate throughout his career with a big leg, but missed all of 2013 with an Achilles' injury. He was released by the Bucs at final cuts. Provided he's healthy, Barth will be a weekly fantasy option for the Broncos' high-scoring offense. Source: Denver Post Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BwareDWare94 723 Posted November 27, 2014 AND.... This is why you don't release a great kicker just because a kid can put kickoffs in the stands. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seanbrock 1,684 Posted December 2, 2014 If the Eagles still had Alex Henery instead of Cody Parkey there is no way we'd be 9-3 right now. Kicker's can be so important to a team's success, especially in the playoffs where there tend to be more close games against good defenses. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cherry 1,302 Posted December 6, 2014 If only they had a great kicker who could set the NFL record for longest kick and play consistently good. Oh wait. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
