Jurors have reached a verdict in the trial of a man charged with murdering Denver Broncos cornerback Darrent Williams. The decision was expected to be read in court shortly. Defendant Willie Clark was taken to the courtroom Thursday, March 11, 2010, to hear the decision.

Suspected gang member Willie Clark was found guilty of murder Thursday in the drive-by shooting death of Denver Broncos cornerback Darrent Williams after a New Year's Eve outing three years ago. Clark showed no emotion as the verdict was read, but leaned back and looked at the ceiling once the jury was dismissed.

Broncos Team Report (Yahoo! Sports)

The Broncos came out focused and aggressive in free agency, adding defensive linemen Justin Bannan, Jarvis Green and Jamal Williams within the first five days.

Williams might be the biggest coup. He's a run-plugging force in a 3-4 scheme, as the Broncos are all too familiar with from Williams' long tenure with division-rival San Diego. The question is his health.

Williams has been battling chronic knee pain for years, and missed almost all of last season with a triceps injury.

Green and Bannan are also veteran 3-4 linemen. Green comes over from New England, where he was unspectacular in 2009 when asked to start after Richard Seymour was traded to Oakland. Bannan was a valued reserve in Baltimore who started all 16 games as an injury replacement in 2008.

Their first season led to a two-game improvement in the standings but there was not an influx of top-level talent on the roster. That can be the case this year, as the franchise must but behind it the 10-38 record of the past three seasons.

That means finding help through every personnel avenue available, but free agency and the draft will top the list. The team struck quickly to add the likes of running back Thomas Jones and defensive tackle Shaun Smith.

"We were active last year and will be again," Pioli said of signing unrestricted free agents.
