Anthems and Protests ---
While we certainly understand the frustration by fans on all sides of the discussion, we have decided to keep the Broncos Country message boards separate from politics. Recent events have brought the NFL to the forefront of political debates, but due to the highly emotional and passionate discussion it tends to involve, we think it’s best to continue to keep politics and this forum separate. Yes, the forum is meant for discussion, but we’d like to keep that discussion to football as much as possible.
With everything going on in our country, it would be nice to keep our complaints and cheers purely related to football here. If you feel passionately, there are plenty of other outlets available to you to express your opinions. We know this isn’t the most popular decision, but we ask that you respect it.
Thank you for understanding.

Those of you incapable of figuring out what kind of player Jared Allen is better run along to your PFF accounts so they can tell you what you think!
I am more than capable of knowing the kind of player Jared Allen WAS for the price he deserved then. I would much rather have used Allen money to chase after TJ Ward.
It's not even starting I admit. But unless Elway got him on a really good deal. We essentially just burnt money on a gap filler until we can find someone to play that spot

I doubt a Jared Allen deal has any possible chance of getting in the way of signing ward. Pretty sure a 31 year old isn't first priority.

If the Broncos sign Allen, it's going to be on a very Bronco-friendly deal. I'm betting it is a two year deal, similar to what they did with Knighton. That's why it makes so much sense. He is a vet that has had his huge payday. He wants a shot at a ring, so he is going to have to be willing to take less from a team like Denver to get it.

For how much do you think ? I was hoping Shaun Phillips money, but then I came to the realization that there's no way Allen is gonna play for 1 mill yearly.

I'm going to guess 2 years, $5 mil, similar to what they did with Ty Warren
That would be sick if we got Allen. Still a top DE.
Imagine if we were also able to bring back Phillips. AT DE we'd have Allen and Phillips, along with a healthy Von Miller. Unstoppable to say the least.

Highly doubt he'll sign for 1 mil.
But i would figure it wont be a ton, he just made 70+ mil on his last deal.
I think there's a possibility the"mutual interest" could be a ploy to keep SPs asking price down, and light a fire under his agent's backside to get a deal done. Can't see signing both, Phillips produced last year, knows the defense, etc. just a thought.
All it takes to win is doing whatever it takes to win: COMMITMENT

This could very well be the case. It's been thrown around that we should take a look at him, but again, as of last night there was a leak that he wanted to sign, which I'm assuming is very Bronco cap figure friendly. No way he comes for the $1 mil Phillips signed for, but I don't think he'll require 6+mil either. Phillips had a great year, and this is no knock on him, but Phillips is a finese DE. He uses speed and moves to get to the QB. Allen is power DE that pushes the pocket back or at least the O lineman. That's the type of DE I'd prefer to compliment Von. I hope we can get all three though.
