The Donks will inquire about Peyton Manning

[Quesadilla Joe]

The Broncos are expected to place a phone call to Manning's agent, Tom Condon, to gauge their chances, according to an NFL source close to the situation. If Manning's contract can be structured so that the team would be protected in case Manning's troublesome neck becomes an issue, the Broncos could well be players.

So all they have to do is offer the 7th pick?

I wasn't even paying attention to the draft order.

I meant 7th round.

Either way ... in those 3 categories, Bess wins on 2, right?

Then wouldn't Bowe get a little more credit when looking at who he has had throwing to him versus Marshall?

The difference is Bess played a lot his rookie year. Breaston did not (only 8 receptions). You can talk about Warner, but except for his final year in Arizona he was the #3 WR behind Fitz & Boldin.

If you look at just this past season both were, essentially, #2 WRs behind Bowe & Marshall and I could argue that Miami's QB & RB situation was better than KC's:

Bess: 51 receptions, 537 yards, 3TDs
Breaston: 61 receptions, 785 yards, 2TDs

Beat me to it.

You can't compare Breaston's early Numbers to Bess's early Numbers. Breaston played number 3 behind Fitz and Boldin while Bess got to start right away.

The thing is: Bowe, Baldwin, and Breaston could be an amazing force with a good QB.

You could probably say the same for any team.

QB's make the receivers.


I'm very critical of Bowe's drops, but in reality he makes up for it with fantastic catches that shouldn't be caught.... and he has Cassel over/under throwing him all of the time. He's a great YAC wr. If it came down to signing Bowe/Marshall to my NFL team... I would just take whomever comes cheaper.

Breaston proved to be a great signing last year for the slot. He's no Welker... but he could be if Brady was throwing him the damn ball.

Baldwin still has a lot to prove.

I would Take Bowe over Marshall, and that's NOT the homer in me.

Lost in all this talk about Miami's "great Receiver" is that Marshall is a ****ing headcase who's seemingly always doing or saying something stupid.

The worst thing Bowe ever did was the importing comment.

Yeah, by the time Marshall was traded I was happy to see him go.

Well not to mention that Peyton is bringing along Wayne with him wherever he goes.

You take our WR/TE core plus Reggie Wayne? I'll put that up against everybody.

If we got Peyton Manning, people would be talking about Dwayne Bowe like he's easily top 5 in the league.

[BigCatDaddy]

All Bess does is catch the little dink and dunk stuff hence his 10YPC average.

[Mile High Mania]

Dink and dunk is about all the Miami QBs have been able to do... we'll just agree to disagree and see what happens.

By that logic, Bowe, Baldwin and Breaston could be the best WR corps in the league by far and we just don't know it because of the QB trio I'll call Tylematt Palcasselkorton.

Again ... I never said the difference was huge.

Jesus, no wonder they were able to sell Tebow in Denver. They're reeruned. That's why they've got to get Manning, so they have get another shiny object to distract the rubes while they get rid of that turd.
