Let's see what Chicago throws at them on top of what they already gave them for Cutler.

There has been much criticism this week over Brandon Marshall's recent run in with the law, which again puts his future with the Broncos in question. Many fans are even okay with his immediate release from the team. This issue has been over blown and needs to be put back into perspective,

Brandon Marshall is a unique talent and the Bronco organization needs to do everything it can to get him the help he needs to be the quality of person off the field that he is on the field. I leave you this video to remind us all of what he means to us on the field and a picture to give you hope of what he can achieve in his life off the field.

The Madden move was trading for Roy "No Routes" Williams. The smart move would be getting Brandon Marshall

Kindly tell us what the accelerated cap hit would be for trading Roy... then, tell us how the Boys find the room for that AND the 9 million a year Marshall will reportedly want...

Once you've done that, tell us how we sign DeMarcus Ware, once we've forked over all this money...

So essentially, you're willing to trade Roy Williams AND lose DeMarcus Ware, all to sign a punk who goes around beating women, and is now tearing apart a team a la TO...

As for the "no routes" remark, that's beyond idiotic... I have read articles in here today that talk about how he runs an excellent slant, and I do believe that's called a "route"...

So once again, you have this inordinate love for punks and thugs, leading us to wonder if you're one yourself... if you had your way, we'd have Marshall, we'd still have TO, we'd still have PacMan, and we'd go out and sign Vick...

And once again, you prove that you know absolutely nothing about the realities of the salary cap... which means if you were in charge, the Boys would be the Detroit Lions for the next ten years or so...

No one is comfortable with trading anything. There is a stigma against trading for someone ELSEs player, especially when there is anything in the players closet. They completely forget the type of players we had in the 90s. But I digress. There is part of the community who has alienated the idea of trading. Every trade is labeled a "madden" trade, regardless of its logic or true value.

There are those of us who want the WR position locked down. Its been in tourmoil for so long.

Look at Antonio Bryant and Joey Galloway.... if we still had these guys we originally had we would have been golden. Its not their fault we had *******es for QBs the years we had them. Yet everyone wanted them out.

I do believe that AB's problems go a little deeper than not having an adequate QB.

A stand really needs to be taken regarding these thugs. Pacman, Brandon... all of them.

If you are a POS then no money for you... no draft, no money, no fortune and fame.

When it comes to this I agree with Goodell 100%.

What's it going to be then, eh?

Like I said, do that, and you can wave bye-bye to DeMarcus Ware... for sure...

The paranoia about Ware's contract is overblown. Remember, Jerry Jones stated that keeping Owens was crucial to being able to sign Ware. Obviously, that was false.

Adding a player like Marshall doesn't worry me for salary. I am more concerned about the price to acquire him and how feasible it is to have two high-priced wideouts. Unless you talking swapping Williams out (which I would do in a second), it simply isn't worth discussing. Since we know that's not an option because of Jones' love affair with Williams, its best to move along.

The move also would require a contract worth $9 million or more per year.

So it would be a huge deal for anyone to do a deal for Marshall, especially in light of his past legal troubles.


These two things are killers - we could not afford this with D Ware coming up and Marshall is a parking ticket away from being suspended.

I'd give up half the Commanders draft next season to acquire him....then watch him squander in mediocrity with the rest of those Burgundy Bastages

We still gotta pay TO too.

Thats a lot of jack between 3 receivers for 1 franchise.

OK, Alex, YOU take the challenge...

With the Boys currently a little less than 15 mil under the cap, and Marshall reportedly wanting 9 mil a year, tell me how the Boys can eat the remaining portion of Roy's bonus (which will obviously involve telling us how much that will be, since I don't know), and give Ware a contract he could live with...

I say it can't be done, prove me wrong... that's paranoia, that's simply looking at the numbers... I say that Ellis was basically sent packing so that they could get Ware signed, so the thought of signing Marshall-- even if you factor out his apparent sociopathic tendencies-- is a crackhead's pipe dream...
