  Steelers | Nathan Overbay signed    Thu Aug 8, 04:06 PM

The Pittsburgh Steelers have signed free-agent TE Nathan Overbay (Lions). Terms of the contract were not disclosed. The team also released OT Mike Farrell.

Footballguys view: The Steelers are forced to pick up a street free agent like Overbay because of the injuries to Heath Miller and Matt Spaeth. The Lions cut Overbay earlier this year and he's likely just a camp body for the Steelers.

The Detroit Lions signed free-agent TE Nathan Overbay (Buccaneers) to the practice squad Wednesday, Sept. 14, and placed TE Cornelius Ingram (undisclosed) on the practice squad Injured Reserve.

  Broncos | Sign 16 undrafted rookie free agents    Mon Apr 26, 08:19 PM

The Denver Broncos announced Monday, April 26, they have agreed to terms with undrafted rookie free-agents WR Alric Arnett (West Virginia), RB Toney Baker (North Carolina State), DL Jaron Baston (Missouri), LB Devin Bishop (California), LB Korey Bosworth (California-Los Angeles), S Marcellus Bowman (Boston College), RB Chris Brown (Oklahoma), OT Paul Duncan (Notre Dame), TE Riar Geer (Colorado), OT Chris Marinelli (Stanford), S Kyle McCarthy (Notre Dame), TE Nathan Overbay (Eastern Washington), OG Michael Shumard (Texas A&M), DL Jeff Stehle (Wisconsin), CB Cassius Vaughn (Mississippi) and WR Landis Williams (Maine).

Footballguys view: He's a long shot to make an impact, but we like the natural ability of RB Chris Brown out of all of these players. Brown played in a RBBC with Demarco Murray in college, and is a good inside/out runner. He's not afraid to run between the tackles and knows when to make a cut outside. Brown is not the fastest back in the stable, but he's very instinctive and patient when waiting for his blocks to develop in front of him.
