Yep, I saw what he did in college. Harbaugh will get the best out of him, a steal in my opinion for a 7th rounder.

Broncos are all in. Apparently they have unlimited cap room. I can think of 5 huge contracts they have off the top of my head.

It'll come back to bite them in the ass. Doesn't Manning alone make $20mil?

They are hoping he retires. They will probably be in cap hell in a couple of years but are going all in this year.

I'm glad the Skins didn't pay Talib that money. Whenever you need him most, he is always injured.

If they have to play Seattle or San Fran again in the SB, these moves won't make a difference. That offense was terrible that day.

I like what Denver is doing. They're trying to win it now and that makes sense with Manning in the twilight.

Denver has no choice but to go all in. Even if it F's them up for a few years it will be worth it if they get a SB win.

I really like New Orleans grabbing Byrd because they needed an impact guy. Thought that one impact guy was worth way more to them than all the value signings in the world.

For Denver, the interesting thing is how far ahead they already were in the AFC before they signed Ward and Talib. I agree with those of you saying that this doesn't really close the gap with Seattle or SF any, but I also think it doesn't do a ton to widen the gap with the rest of the AFC. They can collect all the go-for-it veterans they want, all it does is most likely their special teams weaker. They're already the favorites in the conference, I don't see that changing.

Its gonna be interesting to see how they will be able to keep the second best WR in the league after next season, especially if they dont win the SB.

You'd actually want Gabbert and Martin? No thank you. Neither will be in the league much longer.


I'm glad we didn't pay Byrd or Talib that kind of money but I am disappointed in missing out on guys like Verner, Ward and Mitchell.

Yep, they're stacking that defense impressively. Still going after Jon Beason (good, take him from the Giants!) and DeMarcus Ware after signing Talib and Ward. Possibly losing Decker and Moreno shouldn't slow down Manning very much if at all.

They have no excuses this year. If they don't win the SB, it's a failed season.

I wouldn't mind seeing Peyton win one more, I'm a huge fan of his.

Harbaugh being a former QB will get the best out of both.

lol @ Gabbert

Please

[Alvin Walton]

If we traded two of our precious draft picks for Gabbert and Martin I'd have a royal hissy fit.
