3 yr deal per Adam Schefter. So much for the Phins/Manning/Marshall/Wayne rumors...

LOL. Even if what you suggest true it's irrelevent. Manning makes receivers better.

So thinking through it, Wayne was trying to attach himself to Manning. The fact that Wayne signed first must mean that Manning told Wayne that he's going somewhere that's not interested in Wayne. As others have said, that knocks Denver out since Denver is desperate for receivers. It probably knocks Miami out given the Marshall trade. You'd think Miami would welcome Wayne in their situation. Seattle's receivers? Not that great.

Who besides us is interested in Manning and also has a full complement of receivers?

wha th...huh?

This hardly effects the outcome of where Manning goes

You are definitely right. I just imagine that by now Manning is sick of raising everyone else's game to make them acceptable, especially since he has choices now unlike in Indy. In 2010 I recall seeing him more frustrated with receivers than ever before.

I feel the same about the defense which is why I haven't and still don't see Denver as a choice for him. Last year Denver gave up 86 points to New England in two games. Why on earth would he want to have to score 48 points a game to get past New England

All that said, this is all based on my opinions and how I would view the situation, so obviously someone with his determination, etc. might see it different.

Wayne's a class dude, they're smart to bring him back to help out Luck.

ya, it would be pretty stupid to draft a QB at #1 and let your HOF WR who is still good go.

Yeah, I'm not saying it affects the outcome. I'm saying that it's a clue to the outcome that Peyton is headed toward. Unless Wayne changed the tune he's been singing, it means that he knows where Peyton is going and that he's not wanted there.

I'm guessing Arizona at this point. It's got the components. Warm weather, one of the best WRs in the game, winnable division, a coach Peyton likes.

To me, those are his only choices; Denver or Arizona.

Now the Denver Post is reporting it's down to Denver & Tn, even though he hasn't been in Tn until sometime today!

TN?!?!

Why the hell would he go to that toilet?

As for SF, I dont see it. Alex Smith finally lived up to that draft position. He was nails in that NFC title game and I have to say that if it wasnt for their ridiculously bad punt/kick returner, they go to the SB instead of NYG.

No way SF takes a guy performing at that level, already knows the offense, and replaces him with a 3 year guy at best who wants to implement his own offense. The only way that could ever happen was if Smith himself refused to sign the deal that SF is offering him.

Im guessing Manning goes to AZ. Dome, easy division, bigtime receiver, decent running backs. Old man Warner took them to the SB, so Manning definately has potential there.

Denver is outside and gets cold (heard crap swirling that Peyton didnt want to play somewhere cold), has shit receivers, a shit defense, and more importantly will have to face twice, a furious KC defense for giving us the brushoff. Tamba abuses Denver's O-Line something awful. Forget his throwing arm, Peyton wouldnt be able to feel his legs after that game.

If I had to bet, Id say the fivehead goes to AZ.
