Von Miller situation turning nasty


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

So the word is that the Broncos offered Miller a six year, 114 million offer just to get him to come to OTAs.

They've since pulled the offer without any explanation (but plenty of speculation).

Now the possibility exists that Miller may sit out the season rather than playing under the franchise tag.

Sounds like they have a real mess on their hands out there.

It sounds like he wants more guaranteed money upfront, I don't blame him one bit. He essentially won them a SB and it is time to pay up.

That is what he wants.  Suh and some others got more, and I wouldn't say they are better than him.

Not just more, but A LOT more. The Broncos are offering Miller virtually the same overall money that Suh got,  but Suh got $60M guaranteed. The Broncos are only offering Miller $40M guaranteed. That's a huge difference and as we all know, the only thing that really matters in an NFL contract is the guaranteed money. 

The Broncos are guaranteeing the first two years of his deal. They'll probably have to guarantee the first three to get the deal done. The guy's only 27.  Seems a pretty safe bet for the donkeys to guarantee three.

If he's not there for the season opener I'll be pissed. Cause then Denver fans would try and make that an excuse as to why we demolished them. 

Who gives a poo what their fans think? A win is a win.

I blame the Giants for all this.  I don't give a poo about Von, but they completely screwed the market up by paying top5 money to a CB and DE who have never done anything.

F the Giants!  I hope they suck ass for the next decade.

 

KK's agent is prob going to be looking at that Vernon contract too...

    • The only thing I said was he was part of the staff that made part of the decisions, and that I am judging the decisions made by that group as a whole. As assistant GM, you can pretty much guarantee his input held more sway than an intern or the guy that takes coffee requests. Fitterer didn't operate in a vacuum. Neither does Morgan now. While Fitterer did have the ultimate decision, to say that Dan had no input in ranking boards, evaluating FAs, trade offers or anything else would be asinine. We all know he did. Otherwise what the hell was his job as assistant GM? He wouldn't have been kept for 3 years if he was arguing every decision Scott ever made.    And the actual quote was "Morgan has done a bang up job in the draft and FA. Compared to what the last guy did, he is kicking ass and taking names." So is XL kicking ass and Brooks taking names from last years draft or did I get it backwards? We took Wallace over Payton Wilson because he was an injury risk after trading up for a RB with a torn ACL? Which one of the kicking ass and taking names was that?  Maybe we should review the thousands of gameday posts calling for XL to get off the field because he's a bust and can't catch a cold. We could review the posts about Brooks but... And Wilson. He's at 118 tackles this season vs 36 for Wallace.  I gave credit to Dan for a good draft this year. But I'm also not ignoring last year's draft either since he did that one after the last guy too.  That's not a strawman. 
    • And then, in week 18, we can take Mayfield out of the game and whoop Bridgewater's @$$ for good measure! Let the former QB revenge train roll on!!
    • If we keep our guards in tact ($$$) and go with Mays at C, some OT depth would be nice. I think we should be happy about CB with Thornton's development (pre injury) and Smith Wade. I think Ransom is developing nicely, but I would like to see a FS type for situations. We suck at ILB and Edge (as a whole). We should be OK at RB.  I hope we sign Dowdle to a short contract. QB?  There are signs of hope and development.  (I don't like our backup QB) TE?  Good draft for TE, but I think we are developing with Evans, Sanders, and Tremble. WR?  A #2 with Coker and Horn in the slot.  XL?  What is that? We should be good in 2026. Morgan does more than draft.  Free agency has been strong too.  (Just emptying my brain on your comment--sorry)
