Ware's presence warrants a double take. He grows in significance every time a teammate approaches a microphone or shares an anecdote. After practice earlier this week, Ware worked overtime with a teammate. And not linebacker Von Miller, who might benefit most by Ware's addition. Ware, the former Dallas Cowboys Pro Bowler who was cut this offseason, worked with right offensive tackle Chris Clark.

He helps everyone. Defensive end Derek Wolfe calls him a coach on the field, pointing to assistance provided in simple drill work. Miller joked that Ware is a "like a psychic because he already knows what I am asking before I ask it."

"I am trying to improve and get better, and I always like to remind people that it's tough to learn when you are going up against the best players in the world," Thomas said. "Going against someone of DeMarcus' experience and skill level makes me better. I can't say enough about how much he has helped me so far, and how it will only continue going forward."

He's not Ray Lewis and acting insane every time he's on camera so he's not a leader. :rolleyes:

The fact of the matter is players help other players on every single team every single practice. Nothing against D. Ware, but this is commonplace.

It's going to be a damn shame to see Ware get 16+ sacks and make the Pro Bowl in Denver this year after the fans ran him out of town.

If history is anything to go by, he will light it up for the first five weeks, the I told you crowd will be out in full affect, and from week ten on things will get barren. I like Dware, but last year he was part of the problem. The one time Dallas parts with a star and people still complain.

Ware will get double digit sacks again this year and will help make that Bronco defense better than it was last year. He's not going to get sacks every week but people who expect that of production are completely unrealistic anyway.

I like him too... But neck stinger and shoulder/back problems will rear their ugly head in your time frame.

I actually would be really happy for him if Denver won the Superbowl. I know there will be plenty that won't like that or will be mad anyone would even say it but I couldn't care less what those people think.

Since I'm pretty sure Dallas isn't getting near the Superbowl I'd definately be happy with Denver winning one and D-Ware getting his ring.

I don't even like Denver and I rooted for Seattle in the SB last year. If they get there this year, I'll root for them just so Ware can get a title.
