Could be a good move for Denver. One thing is certain, it's a tremendous move for Vernon Davis. Going from Kaepernick to Peyton ought to have him smiling from ear to ear. Plus no more nightmares of Kam Chancellor.

Glad to see this move happen. Until last night's game the TE's barely had over 100 yards combined receiving. That middle threat has been a huge glaring weakness for this offense. Plus Manning has always loved his TE's. Hopefully Davis can be added to the long line of TE's that love to play with Manning.

A little surprised about this, frankly. Last night they finally got Virgil Green involved and he looked pretty good.

Yeah, Peyton (and Brady) love their TEs. This is an excellent trade.

Anyone want Jared Cook? Bag of chips and the Rams might even give you a draft pick

Great move by Denver. Davis not be in his prime anymore but he's still a good TE. And like you said.....Manning loves his TE's. They've been struggling to find a 3rd WR, Davis will be that 3rd option and he should get 48-50 catches between now and the end of the season......along with 6-7 TD's.

I would love that kind of production out of him. To me a guy that can get that 3-5 catches a game though up the middle of the field and be a consistent blocker is what I am hoping for. We just haven't had that weapon over the middle that keeps defenses honest. They know they can double on the outside and do just fine. This helps take that MLB out of the middle a little bit helping both the pass and run game.

Next to be traded...... Kaepernick?

Im not someone who follows contracts but I can't imagine anyone wanting his contract

Im not someone who follows contracts but I can't imagine anyone wanting his contract

...Or him specifically.

Cowboys?

But yes I don't see why any team would want him or his contract

Yep. The only reason I stated the stats I did is because Manning loves his TE's. He'll dump it off to Davis if his WR's are covered downfield.

Honestly thats not going to be the issue.

Peyton not being in his prime is the issue. Davis should still be somewhat decent and at almost no risk

Nobody will take him at his salary. The 49ers would release him before they found somebody willing to trade for. If they found a taker, that GM should be fired.

Manning has struggled throwing down the field. Throwing to Davis won't be a problem imo.

Like I said I would love those stats. That would be a huge boost to this offense that seemed to finally find some traction yesterday. I'm trying to keep my hopes for him in this offense down so as to not be disappointed. Plus I do figure it will take him a few weeks to get used to this offense. My guess is he is more a part of the rotation for a while then will be inserted as a starter as they go.
