Elway about to become the highest paid GM in the NFL

[Draft Crazy]

Per Woody Paige. Said it could be signed this week or in a month, but will be signed.

That kinda puts a huge dent in Big Al's theory


Way to get it done, Bowlen!!!!!

Everyone knows Bowlen is not making Bronco decisions anymore - right?

Yep and I doubt Elway would be playing golf if a bitter divorce was about to happen. Just amazed how concerned people got over the delay or that it wasn't going to happen.

i couldn't picture elway working for any other franchise.

If this Bronco's team wins the Super Bowl - it would be a heck of a story, but such are the times in which we live.

Yeah I know, it just sounded good though! Rolled off the tongue better than "Way to get it done Joe Ellis"

Trumpier things have happened.

I'm more curious if he's going to get an ownership stake.

My guess is that ownership is off of the table until the family settles with who and how the organization will be run. His new contract might have some language in it that makes an ownership stake a possibility once everything has been settled moving forward. From what I understand, there's still a lot up in the air regarding who is going to own and run the Broncos. Outside of that, I was never worried that Elway wouldn't get locked up. The Broncos know how much he means to the team and the community, plus he's done a good job.

For now, get it done! In Elway we trust.

Well deserved. He's done a great job.

Yeah, I read that the 60% of ownership Pat has is in some kind of trust, and will be given to the person who shows they are ready for ownership or some such thing. I doubt Elway is made owner until after Pat dies.

Yeah he finished in top 10 at celebrity golf tourney .Best finish for him I believe. Don't think he's feeling any stress anywhere.
