The GM responsible was Paton and he's still there

OK that makes a lot more sense the Broncos subreddit said it was $17M but no way does he get more than 39.

I like the idea of signing Barkley. Neither Herbert or Johnson are complete backs. Saquon is.
He's still young. Sign him to a 3 year deal with an out after two while you look for his replacement in the next two drafts.

I actually wouldn't mind that either if he comes with a reasonable deal.

For how much? He ran for less than 1k yards last year (14 games) and only averaged 3.9 Y/A. I don’t think he’s the same ol Barkley and I’ve never been a fan of signing RBs for a lot of money

How big could have it been? He sucked ass last year, whether it was his fault or not.

If the Broncos are willing to take 85 million dollars in dead money by releasing him, there’s more to it. If I was other teams, I’d be asking why?

There really isn't. Thats way too much money for Russell Wilson but when you start talking about vet min, then it becomes much more attractive

OH I got you, I just wanted to share in this happy vision I have going in my head.
Off tackle run, Jenkins pulls around Wright to blast the end in wide 9. Kmet with two steps plants the LB on his ass, and Wright is right there on the second level, his initial assignment already planted next to where Jenkins has his guy on the floor. Henry has a few steps, and pushes his shoulder through the safety, barely loses speed as he then cruises thirty yards before another defender enters the frame.
King Henry would get 60,000 Chicago fans rumbling loud enough that you would swear Soldier Field holds 100k.

Poles should sign Russell Wilson and have Caleb sit a year or two..
Hate all you want but that would be the perfect scenario..

It was a trade and an extension which makes it much worse.
Here’s a recap.
Everything the Broncos got, and gave up, in their disastrous Russell Wilson trade
Wilson is officially being released, less than two years after being the next great QB hope in Denver.

The Giants had no pass threat on offense and their OL was terrible. Barkley got all of defenses attention with loaded boxes. With a respectable pass game and better OL (that we have) I bet he sees a career resurgence.

I am fine with that except that Caleb will beat out Wilson in training camp. They aren’t drafting CW #1 and having him sit one let alone two years. Maybe, maybe, RW or other vet starts a few games. Maybe you sign him to mentor and in case of injury. But if CW isn’t ready the first year they probably screwed up. Further how much is Wilson going to cost to be, at best, a place holder? I am not dismissing this completely, it isn’t a terrible idea, but money will probably be better spent elsewhere. If CW is truly “generational” does he need his hand held for a year or two?
