Denver tables contract talks with both Thomas' til after season is over

[Phicinfan]

Per a story on PFT, they have halted talks. This will make for a great off-season story with this. AS they can only tag one, so they would have to sign the other, or potentially lose them to FA.

And the seasons they are now having is going to make that very hard to do.

I think you have to tag Dem Thomas if you had to pick one.

Keeping both I think will be extremely difficult.

Paying out Megatron and Graham $$ on the same team that has Manning will test the skills of Elway to the max.

You go with Demaryius and it's not even close. Julius has the numbers that he does because of system and QB. He's not an athletic freak like Graham or Gronk. Frankly, I'm not that impressed with his work between the 20s.

I think we as fantasy fans can get blinded with Julius' huge fantasy numbers because of all those TDs. I really think he is as Peyton makes him. Demaryius on the other hand...that dude makes plays. His YAC is insane

I didn't know that he caught passes between the 20's. Great point ER though he is a TD machine right now.

You have to think $$$ folks. FT for a TE is MUCH less than FT for a Wr.

This is true, but it's still a substantial jump in pay over Julius' current salary, and then you have to be able to offer Demaryius enough money that he agrees to stay in Denver.

Not sure what their cap situation is like, but we're talking about a substantial jump in pay for both of these guys.
