Chiefs Peyton Manning to visit Denver TONIGHT to meet with Donks - Page 84

Quesadilla Joe · 03-09-2012, 12:23 PM

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.

All I can say with certainty is that Peyton Manning will be a starting QB in 2012... only question is where at this point.

**DeezNutz** · 03-10-2012, 03:51 PM

Has Denver signed him yet?

I seriously feel that if Manning really wanted to sign with Denver he would have done it by now. They obviously threw everything they had at him yesterday...and if that wasn't enough to make him commit on the spot then it's probably not enough to make him commit ever. Also, it speaks to the fact that he probably hadn't really considered Denver until they decided to try and persuade him to play there.

If Larry Fitzgerald knows, he hasn't mentioned it.

There's speculation that some are speculating that the Broncos will speculate on whether or not Manning is speculating if they'll offer him a contract at this point. It's getting serious.

Mile High Mania · 03-10-2012, 03:54 PM

If Denver makes the move with Manning, the better do the following:

Add -
Reggie Wayne
Dallas Clark, maybe a John Carlson
One of or a combo of Peyton Hillis, Michael Bush, Michael Tolbert

**BossChief** · 03-10-2012, 03:54 PM

KnowMo didn't fulfill our agreement from last year and is weighing on this years bet with every post.

He should be banned at this point....or have his username be forceably changed to something that reflects his lacking honor.

He is lucky I'm not a mod, that's for sure.

Surely, you can't be serious.

God it's going to be sweet satisfaction if you sign him and we win the division with some dipshit at QB.
