Would you do it?
Peyton has a relationship with that organization. Keenum has a relationship with Shurmur. Gives Eli a chance with a team that can block. Broncos can draft a QB in next draft and Eli gets 1 more try as a starter in 2019.
It works from a cap standpoint.

Eli will either be playing or cut. There is no trading him.

Sure. But this would be the Broncos if Gettleman approached them with that:  btw - Keenum sucks too. |

Elway won a SB with an old Manning and Eli has more left in the tank than Peyton did. Keenum has been awful there. If we did this can look at him for 1/2 a year and eject if he was a 1 year wonder. I’m mainly trying to do right by Eli here. I think it’s a better look for him elsewhere than holding a clipboard or getting booed here for his final 2 months.

Keenum is the same as Foles . A good backup. They both need a superb team around them. Our O-line is far from that.

Elway won a SB with an old Manning and Eli has more left in the tank than Peyton did. The Broncos had the best defense in the NFL that year. Peyton Manning was atrocious in the regular season and post season. Brock freakin Osweiller went 5-2 that year (IIRC) because of that defense. btw - it's highly debatable if Eli has as much left in the tank as a crippled Peyton. I hope I'm wrong but this owner is so ultra conservative that he will ensure Eli plays out this season as the starter. |

I think this resolves itself quickly. Likely with his release in some kind of mutual we still love each other kinda way. |

If he was we would have seen Webb. If he was Webb wouldn't be on the jets practice squad right now. Mara caved to fan backlash and demanded Eli be reinserted into the starting role... let me repeat that: The owner of an NFL franchise cowered due to the ****ing fans. If Mara wanted to see Webb, we would have the next week after starting Geno. There will be no release. IMO Eli starts every game for the rest of the year and is asked to retire, the Giant way. |

Making Eli a FA is the kindest thing we can do for him. I firmly believe a contender with a fragile/shakey QB would take him as a backup given his postseason resume. If not Eli can sit tight until an injury occurs. I mean if Bortles struggles and Eli is sitting there Coughlin doesn’t call? It serves Eli no purpose to play in meaningless games here and end his Giants career getting booed and dealing with drama.
