2 separate contracts, Manning could give up something unrelated for ownership rights in theory.

Fortunately for the world (us), the CBA covers attempts to circumvent the cap with specific regulations against it and a general provision that covers anything not specifically mentioned. And yes, it also covers conveying a share to Archie, his dog, or me.

Who will Peyton Manning choose?

Are the Titans on the money or are they just blowing hot air?

Have the Broncos failed or have they proven that Silence is in fact golden?

Find out Tomorrow... or Sunday!

Or next week lol

We have heard no contact or rumors from our end. Where there is smoke, there is usually fire. They might have an issue with the ownership thing, but I am sure there is a way and they will find it.

I really wish this would end. I don't see him turning down ownership rights.

I think we should trade for Jake Locker.

We've been in talks with his agent.

And the ownership thing is NOT happening, all 32 owners would have to approve it, Schefy/Mort both said it probably won't happen.

Broncos= better team

Titans= better offer

simple as that. Which is more important? (to him)

Haha, you posted a bleacher report link:nono:

Can't we outbid them because we have more cap room?

[ERoyal248]

Has he went to the titans yet so elway will stop drooling and focus on signing other FA that will improve the team? Lol

We're bringing in Trufant and Jameel McClain of the Ravens for visits tommorow.

And no, he hasn't signed, not funny, i see your consistent!?!?! :thumb:

Can't we outbid them because we have more cap room?

It's probably possible that we could outbid them if we wanted to...but I don't think anyone will match the ludicrous offer(s) of Bud Adams and that's just that...

[ERoyal248]

Can't we outbid them because we have more cap room?

Yes, we can offer him more $$ if it comes down to that.

We have like 15+ more mil in cap room then they do.

So....anyone else see that on NFL Network? Cause there's still nothing, and that's huge news.

I have not seen anything about a decision tomorrow and I've been watching for an hour.

[KnoMo#27]

Can't we outbid them because we have more cap room?

Sure we can. Bowlen even said he would make a competitive offer. Money really shouldn't be an issue. Right now it comes down to Tenn having those connections. I still don't think he chooses Tenn

What exactly can they offer.

They have around 20-21 mil of cap room, and the ownership thing isn't happening. And that's not including rookie deals.

[dbjeff]

Can't we outbid them because we have more cap room?

In theory, yes, for this year anyway.

In reality, they could simply offer more guarantees/years than we're comfortable providing. Also in reality, since neither team is going to sign him to a one year contract equaling the amount of cap space available, the idea of "outbidding" a team based on available cap space this year doesn't really make much sense.

[AdamWeberOrBust]

Yes, we can offer him more $$ if it comes down to that.

We have like 15+ more mil in cap room then they do.

So in theory... because the ownership thing isn't goingdown... We can just easily outbid them? I'm pretty sure Bowlen said he would do anything to get him.

Unless I heard wrong and he actually said "I will do anything but if that crazy fool Bud Adams comes calling them I'm going to Hawaii."
