Anyways Ryan take the ****ing money and run. Or at least block. You want Thomas money, earn Thomas money.

do you have a clue? Clady is being offered a fair contract compared to his recent past performance..

Pat is not investing his money at this point all the salaries are being paid by ticket sales, (thanks Peyton) and TV money..

Come next year IIRC they have to spend a certain amount of the revenues minimum money unlike this year where if you did not notice we are about as close to the cap as we can get..

You need to pick up on sarcasm. He thinks Clady should take the money because he is getting a very good deal for himself compared to what he has done in recent years.

Clady might get a better deal blocking for Peyton Manning in free agency. Which is fine with me. Make an offer, let him walk and take the compensatory pick OR franchise if he is legitimately dominant.

I was referring to his assine statement about Pat being Broke.. Sarcasm or not it was a dumb thing to say..

Some of the posters here are believing that all the money that comes in and goes into Pats Pockets and then is paid out as he sees fit..

Loads do not have a clue on how businesses run..

[Gcver2ver3]

don't blame clady's camp for wanting more money... thats just negotiating tactics 101...

but the name Joe Thomas should never be uttered from their mouths... its hard to take them serious with that type of demand...

Clady, who is in the final year of his rookie contract, is owed $3.5 million in 2012.

Per Klis, however, the offer isn’t viewed as strong enough by Clady’s camp. Agent Pat Dye reportedly wants a deal worth more than that of Cleveland’s Joe Thomas. Thomas signed an eight-year, $92 million deal last August and is the NFL’s richest left tackle.

Clady isn’t as good as Thomas — and it isn’t even close. So the fact that Clady wants more money than a player he’s inferior to suggests no deal is imminent, barring a surprise increase in the Broncos’ already reasonable offer or decrease in Clady’s unreasonable contract demands.

Dude, if you cant tell he was being sarcastic about pat being broke and yet shelling out a possible $50 million on Clady, nobody can help you. It wasn't assinine. It was assinine that you couldn't tell that he was being sarcastic.

The pass rush will be amped up this year.

And "just get rid of it" is not always the magic answer. Yes, you can avoid a sack. But sometimes Peyton prefers to go ahead and have protection to allow a play to develop.

Do you actually believe that?

[CBF1]

Also add that Clady hurt himself playing hoops and basically missed a year because of him playing basketball.

Joe Thomas>>>>>>> Ryan Clady Facts are facts.

[broncosteven]

Did Clady sign or is he still drawing this out?

[Requiem]

Guess we will have to franchise him.

[razorwire77]

That's a really strong offer, given Clady's injury history. Pat musta hit up the King Soopers Coinstar and cashed in some loose change on a trip to buy some knockoff brand bourbon.

If Clady balks at this contract, when the time comes you might as well throw the franchise tag on him. Let him prove he's better than Thomas and if he does then you break the bank slightly more to make him the highest paid tackle in the league. I'm sure Pat will pawn some jewelry to make it happen if that is the case.

Here is a clue to help you along because you seem so inept...

If someone says something about Myrtle Beach, Foneco, Ambien, Pat being broke, rant about being voted off of Survivor, meth alley, Ghostbusters, Madise, the Claw, Subway, throat punches, backflips by prospects, breaking off 2k in the Bronco system, having 5 tools, being able to judge that pics are fake from looking at the pixels, heard something on the lightrail….

Assume they are being sarcastic.

[Agamemnon]

Clady is not worth 10 million a year. Period.

FYI, this is factually true.

Multiple opposing defensive players talked about how they were being told repeatedly to keep containment on Tebow as the top priority, not attacking the QB.

New England, who did so well against us in both games, took this to the extreme and basically had their DEs spying the edges for Tebow to scramble around the end.

Teams significantly reduced their pass rush pressure against the Broncos late last season in order to take away escape routes for Tebow.

Definitely not the way he played the last two seasons. But his first two seasons in the league, he WAS better than Joe Thomas. The knee injury seems to have taken something out of him. Hopefully, with the knee injury a couple a years in the rearview, he can get back to the Clady of 2008-2009.

The sack rate doubled with Tebow in the lineup. Almost literally. The sack % ("Percentage of Time Sacked When Attempting to Pass") was 5.5% with Orton and exploded to 10.9% with Tebow. So, if teams were really toning down their pass rush for Tebow, it's pretty ominous that he was nevertheless getting sacked at twice the rate per drop back than the human statue Orton. That says more about Tebow's flaws than the quality of the blocking.

Spot on with this post....no damn way is he worth Thomas money. See what he does this year with a pocket passer, if he returns to stud form offer him a top three contract. Joe Thomas money though...gtfo

[canadianbroncosfan]

Jesus since when do you have to defend a ``Pat Bowlen is clearly broke``

Anyways thanks broncocalijohn and delaney for defending me in my absence. Didn`t think I needed to come back for that one. REP

Let's just ignore him and discuss whether or not Colquitt has the punting job all locked up.

This. It's still about supply and demand, though, so the Broncos may offer more before it's said and done.

[RhymesayersDU]

For the people saying Clady isn't worth the contract, and I'm not saying you're wrong. But who replaces him? Do we trade up in the next draft to take an elite LT?
