Chiefs Peyton Manning to visit Denver TONIGHT to meet with Donks - Page 25

Peyton Manning will be in Denver tonight visiting with the Broncos, according to two NFL sources.

This is getting serious, folks.

Manning, arguably the most decorated free agent in NFL history, has the Broncos on his short list. The long-time Indianapolis Colts quarterback was released earlier this week amid concerns about his neck, a $26 million bonus payment and the team's opportunity to select highly prized quarterback Andrew Luck with the No. 1 pick in the upcoming NFL draft.

Manning, 36, has been cleared to throw by his neck specialist, Dr. Robert Watkins. One NFL source said Manning will also visit the Arizona Cardinals and Miami Dolphins after visiting with the Broncos. A source said Manning would like to make a decision by Tuesday, the first day of free agency.

The Broncos' top brass of John Elway, coach John Fox and general manager Brian Xanders, are currently in Stillwater, Okla., watching the Oklahoma State Pro Day workout that features quarterback Brandon Weeden.

The Broncos have the No. 25 pick in the draft, plus the 25th selection in the second round. Weeden, who turns 29 in October, is considered the second-best passer to Luck in the draft and has been projected to go between the Broncos' top two picks.

Manning will turn 36 in two weeks.

I heard he only picked Denver first because he's friends with Fox and/or Elway. Said he wants to visit places where he knows people first. It'll be a faster process into picking a team.

We're still in the mix

It's been pretty clear KC has opened it's legs to Manning and can pay him more than the Dolphins and Cardinals yet he's avoiding KC like the plague with these sanctioned visits.

good point, semenmonster

It's okay to be bitter as long as it doesn't make you say things that are just plain dumb.

If that happens, we'll make it so red its black.

I just can't get over the idea that he'd want to play for a team that just had the biggest news story in the NFL last year (Tebow). Even if Tebow was gone, it'd be hang over everything, and Manning would get asked all about it every time he's interviewed. It just seems like a hassle he could avoid.

Strongside · 03-09-2012, 06:37 PM

Look, at this point, I don't really care if he signs somewhere besides KC. I can handle that. However, if he signs with Denver, I will completely lose my shit.

Tebow locked himself in his room and is throwing a temper tantrum.

In58men · 03-09-2012, 06:44 PM

Hali will end Mannings career

ShowtimeSBMVP · 03-09-2012, 06:45 PM

Peyton is from New Orleans, and the nuggets are playing the new orleans hornets

Titty Meat · 03-09-2012, 06:45 PM

Hali will have 0 rings and 0 playoff wins because his owner is a dumbass.
