Yes, Clady is one of the best tackles in the league. Manning is one of the best QBs in the history of football. Clady missed an entire season, so did Manning. The Broncos’ doctors checked out Manning and said they thought he was good to go (which he was, and he took several hits last season). They will do the same with Clady. I really can’t see how the two situations are any different. For the record, I think they’d be crazy not to re-sign Clady. But to act like the best move for the organization is not to wait and see and franchise him if you have to is just being purposefully obtuse. Elway/Manning haters, the lot of ya. See you in the Super Bowl next year.

Makes perfect sense.

At least change it to “Elway says it’s not in Clady’s best interests to wait until Week One to show up”

I would hate for Ryan Clady to show up in week two all because of Florio.

You’ve got bigger fish to fry. Jammer isn’t going to get any younger.

Yeah, except for the fact that they already offered him 5/$50M and he turned it down. Now, he’s got a hurt shoulder with a 5 to 6 month rehab and is 2 years removed from a season long knee injury that he got playing basketball. I guarantee you that the offer after his rehab isn’t 5/50 anymore. This and they can franchise him for the next 2 seasons. The Broncos have nothing but leverage. If Clady’s smart, he signs.

What he is saying through the headline is that it would not be in Clady’s best interests to just show up in week one without following through with a proper offseason.

“Horse face, let him walk. We need a good tackle in Green Bay.”

You can’t afford him in Green Bay. That’s why you had to let center Scott Wells leave, and that’s why you have to let wide receiver Greg Jennings leave.

The only reason Elway wants him there for the preseason is to see how well he heals. I cannot see one advantage to Clady by being there without a contract.

Of course it’s still all about the bucks… now a percentage of his pay may well come from what he doesn’t have to pay players.

The NFL meat market… it’s something else.

Either way, the headline is terribly written.

Elway is saying it isn’t in his best interest to skip camp only to show up for first game. what are you confused about. I just love how Elway, the worst hold out player in history has the gall to chime in on this. what a hypocrite.
