    Re: Official Denver Broncos Thread

    I heard tonight that the Broncos already have a trade lined up for Tebow to some unknown team in the event Manning signs...the rumor I hear is that it's Jacksonville, but who knows.

      Yes the team is Jacksonville but thats not exactly lined up, thats just who they are in contact with.

        What does Jacksonville do with him? They just drafted Gabbert.

          Make sure they give him a jersey and he will put butts in stands. But honestly maybe a package or two just for Tebow.

            I've heard the GM for Jacksonville is not interested in trading for Tebow and that Khan will let the GM handle it.

              The old owner I believe was hurting for money and would've made the deal in heartbeat to sell seats. But I think Khan a rich as can be so I understand them not having the same urgency to acquire Tebow.

He's been swapped around constantly, and yet continues to play at a high level. I think DJ Williams is an anchor, and linebacker is already a position of need. Letting go of DJ Williams would put us further back on linebackers.

                My opinion is that as the 17th pick overall in 2004, he has been nothing more than an average to slightly-above average linebacker regardless of where he has played. I'm not saying he's horrible by any means, but he most definitely hasn't been the impact player that he was drafted to be. He's never made a Pro Bowl. He's a B to B- player who has fallen short of what he was drafted to be. He's decent, but by no means great. Solid, but not dominant.

                I'm not opposed to Denver keeping him, I just don't want to see them pay him a lot of money. If they were to trade him and acquire a draft pick, that wouldn't bother me.

                I remember when Denver drafted him. I thought the Broncos should have drafted Stephen Jackson instead.

                  Interesting point about Tebow's value dropping quicker than most by sitting bc he needs his legs to be successful, but it's funny to me to think that signing Manning could create some kind of QB controversy. Like I said in the other thread, he's Peyton freaking Manning. Anyone that starts screaming for Tebow after Manning has a bad game or two should be clubbed and stoned.

                    Think Denver would be wise to hold. onto Tebow if they do land Peyton.

                      The controversy would probably only come from Tebow fans, not true Bronco fans. I've even heard some say that Tebow should demand a trade simply because the Broncos are looking to bring in Manning. What a joke.

                      The rumors swirling around out there are vastly different. It will be interesting to see what happens. I hope he decides quickly, as it will hinder other potential free agency moves for any of the teams interested in getting Manning.

                        This isn't on Tebow, but part of me wants him gone ONLY because of the lunatic Tebowmaniacs giving Broncos Country a bad name.

                          So what do you guys think Denver's chances are of landing Manning?

                            I think we have a great chance, makes sense to me.

                              Maybe I'm just not as optimistic as you but I just don't see him coming to Denver.

                              Too many other teams jumping in after our meeting.

                              Don't get me wrong I hope he does but just don't see it happening.

                                I'm trying to be objective about it but I just don't see too many reasons for Denver not to be his choice.

                                To me it just makes too much sense, and that's after me trying to find any reason why it doesn't.

                                The best I can come up with is he golfs with Whisenhut and lives in Miami.
