Rotoworld said:Broncos released CB Champ Bailey.
He was owed a $1 million roster bonus on March 15. The cut saves $10 million against the cap. With the savings, we wouldn't be surprised to see GM John Elway make a run at free agent SS T.J. Ward. Denver is needy at strong safety, and Broncos executive Tom Heckert drafted Ward in Cleveland. Bailey, 36 in June, began to show signs of decline late in 2012, particularly during Denver's playoff loss to Baltimore. He all but fell off the cliff in 2013, battling recurring foot injuries and performing ineffectively when available. Bailey wants to keep playing, but is unwilling to make a Charles Woodson-like conversion to safety. Either way, he's going to have to be open to playing for cheap.
Any chance they try to resign him on a cheaper deal?
