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...

    • Just another 1st round QB that never paid off for the team that drafted them or traded for them. It's been like this since the SB began. 36 QBs have now won the SB & only 13 of them have been 1st rounders winning with their original team. Namath 1968, Griese 1972, Bradshaw 1974, McMahon 1985, Simms 1986, Aikman 1992, Elway 1997, Roethlisberger 2005, P.Manning 2006, E.Manning 2007, Rodgers 2010, Flacco 2012, & Mahomes 2019. Only 3 have taken longer than 5 seasons as the starter to win a SB.  4  6  5  4  6  4  15  2  9  4  3  5  2 [the years it takes for these 1st round QBs] 5  1  4  1  3  1  1  2  3  4  [10 of the 36 have won a chip with their 1st team that haven't been drafted in the 1st round. These are the years it took them as a starter] What stands out? Only 2 of these QBs have lost their first championship appearance. Elway took 4 years as a 1st rounder & Hurts took 2 years as a 2nd rounder. Of the 10 non-1st round QBs, 2 are 2nd rounders, 3 are 3rd rounders, 5 are 6th rounders or later. Please stop wasting time on drafting 1st round QBs with such a high failure rate. The remaining 13 QBs are traded or free agent signings. Stafford, Favre, Young, Williams and Dawson are the 5 trades. Peyton Manning & Tom Brady also won for teams as free agents on a short stay as well as being drafted. The lesson here is don't waste your franchise on farming up 1st rounders for the league, and steer clear of trading for a franchise QB. Stick to finding that championship QB by drafting them outside of the 1st round or through free agency.  
    • I lost most of the respect I had for Fox in 2010. He should have resigned if he hated the job that much. Instead he stuck for his paycheck and let stuff go to hell.    I burned out on Ron too but my deal breaker issue with him was away from football and after he was gone from the Panthers. He may have been out of his depth but never quit on us. 
    • From where they were one year ago to now, pretty incredible. I mean, say what you want about Vrabel he is no Jerrod Mayo.
