The Facts:
Mike Shanahan surprised the league by using a third-round draft choice on Clarett in the final selection of the round. The coach thought he had the cutback style of running that fit in one of the league's best running systems. As it turned out, Shanahan made a mistake and didn't want to waste time admitting it. With Tuesday's deadline for cutting the roster to 65 looming, Clarett, who never made the field in three preseason games, was let go.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The Broncos are still plenty deep at halfback. Mike Anderson, coming off a huge performance in Saturday night's loss to the Colts, is expected to be the opening day starter. Tatum Bell should be the backup and Shanahan likes what he sees from former Giants No. 1 pick Ron Dayne. Quentin Griffith has also returned from off-season knee surgery and played against the Colts without difficulty.
