9News' Mike Klis reports that media tycoon Byron Allen is set to submit a bid to buy the Denver Broncos.

Allen is a business and media mogul who is the head of the entertainment company Entertainment Studios. According to Allen, Roger Goodell and Robert Kraft went to him in November of 2019 and asked him to think about purchasing an NFL team. He told Bloomberg on Tuesday that he is preparing to submit a bid to purchase the Broncos.

 

Cheers to future first black owner of NFL franchise.

He doesn't even have 25% of what it will take to purchase them.  Must be a large ownership group if he will be the majority owner.

 

Has to be.  Broncos owner want to sell, she inherited the team after death and she don’t want it.  I think this way in development for quite sometime behind the scene.

I wonder who he will add to his ownership group to get the rest of the money. No way his net worth of $450M will get the job done alone.

Yeah, only billionaires were in the running for the Panthers.  Heck, when it was speculated John Elway or Peyton Manning were interested, they were forming ownership groups because not even those guys have enough money to buy the Broncos outright.

I honestly don't know what is the best for teams.  

 

Ownership groups can be messy with internal power struggles.

or

One billionaire who has completely unchecked authority.

 

Both have potential to suck.

So how is this going to work? 
 

Current rules state the majority owner must own at least 30% of a franchise.

If Byron liquidated everything he owns, he could only buy 22% (assuming a $2B price).

Are they going to give him a huge discount or something or his he taking on a massive pile of debt.

Edit: The team is worth $3B.

Broncos are worth way more than $2B.  Forbes has them worth 3.75b.

      Bryce’s new look. He looks like a grown up

      By frankw · Posted

      Oh please with the wallowing in victimhood I'm going to take my ball and go home routine. You were just in here referring to people as super weird haters because they don't completely agree with your borderline delusional spin on what Bryce Young is and isn't as a fourth year starter. We can hope by some miracle that Bryce Young will actually be able to lead a formidable passing offense this season without being irrational homers and pretending verfiable data and what we have seen with our own two eyes doesn't tell us exactly what he has been to this point which is someone who moves the ball at a historically low rate.

      Vrabel and Russini? Athletic investigating.

      I am curious who's behind all of this though. A video and photos from years ago surfacing? Someone has a vendetta and is driving this PR campaign. I'm loving it, but I'd also like to know who said mystery figure is.

      I say positive things about Bryce when he earns them. Which he has a handful of times. It is all here and on the record but your lobby won’t focus on that or the flat out truth inside of our critical comments.  It is a constant thing with him and his backers - one or two good things and people are trying to extrapolate that to proof we should commit to him, while ignoring or making excuses for the larger portion of his track record.  When he is able to consistently turn in franchise QB extension worthy outings the tone of the posts will reflect that.  I have already said that if he would play like he did in the WC as often as we need him to, I would be okay with keeping him.  See you don’t want to talk about that though because it shows actual fair minded evaluation not stanning.
