How could I not talk again about Peyton Manning on this day that he is released from the Colts? Yes, that’s right, he is a free agent. He, arguably, could be the biggest name on the open market in NFL history.
So where does he end up? Well I mentioned several weeks ago the pros and cons of Peyton coming into the Seattle. But what are the other possible locations? Some teams being thrown around in the discussions include: Miami, Washington, NY Jets and the Cardinals. I do not agree with the idea that Peyton could go to Washington. I cannot see how he would want to face his brother Eli twice a year, especially with Eli coming to his prime and Peyton getting older and with a new team. I also don’t see him going and sharing NY with Eli. I can see him however going to Miami. The warm weather year around is probably appealing to him. The problem for them is that they do not have room under the salary cap to sign him, thus I see it a smaller possibility than others may state.
When negotiations arise with talks of Peyton going to the Cardinals I cringe. I do not like the idea of him going to a team inside our division, especially with Larry on the outside. The problem is that they have no money for Peyton. They also gave up a bunch last year to get Kevin Kolb including a first round pick, a starting cornerback, and more.
This leaves really only Seattle in the negotiations. I am completely ok with that.
