The Broncos also signed Joel Dressen earlier in the day, but there are no contract details for that one yet. Tamme obviously has chemistry with Peyton Manning. The duo combined for 67 catches for 631 yards and 4 touchdowns in 10 games in 2010 with Dallas Clark out. He’s not much of a blocker, but that’s what Dressen is for and the Broncos are getting him at a reasonable rate, 3 years, 9 million with 3.5 million guaranteed.
My only question is why did the Broncos pick Tamme over Clark? Clark is someone who Manning has more experience with. Clark is older and really struggled last year without Manning, but so did Tamme. With Tamme and Dressen in town, I don’t see room for Clark, but I’m sure there’s some sort of explanation behind it.
