A lot currently riding on Denver and whether their current core is good enough to finally get over the hump, plus they're currently on the hook for a massive luxury tax bill ($170 million payroll for just 10 rostered players as of now). If Middleton opts in, I think Denver would look long and hard at the cost benefit of getting off MPJ's contract for a $40 million expiring. I'd be exploring something where we're getting a younger but flawed blue-chip talent over a lot of these proposed ideas where we're simply gaining cap flexibility and a few picks.
I like the line of thinking with targeting guys like MPJ, but he in particular is not of interest to me. Even if he stays healthy (which i do not believe at all) I don’t like the fit.
Targeting someone like Maxey as mentioned above is a lot more interesting to me.
