"In addition to the Terrell Owens speculation, there is another controversial NFL player being linked to the Broncos.
Ladies and gentlemen, meet the Ricky Williams-to-Denver talk.
With the NFL free agency and trading period about seven weeks away, the Williams rumors have begun float. The Dolphins probably will deal Williams, and the Broncos are one of the teams connected to the speculation, just as they were linked to Owens a few months back.
Will it happen? The Broncos are likely to add to their running arsenal in the offseason, but it most likely will be through the draft. Williams would fit Denver's running back mold, but the team probably wouldn't trade for a veteran.
The Broncos feel comfortable in producing their own backs. Plus, the Dolphins likely would want a conditional first-round pick for Williams. That would be too steep for Denver. If the price tag is a midround pick, it would make more sense for Denver because he has a reasonable contract.
Williams will garner interest around the league. He behaved well this season after missing 2004 and the first four games this season for violating the NFL's substance-abuse policy. He finished the season strong.
There will be a market for Williams, but it could be pricey and it is unlikely he'll wind up in Denver. " - Denver Post

Im not one to post meaningless rumors, but i havent heard of this one yet. In the article it says Ricky may be being shopped by the Dolphins for an early pick. I like that. Im not sure what Ricky's trade value is, but its nice to see someone else reporting that "Ricky will garner interest from around the league".
