America's team


« on: June 07, 2006, 12:10:59 pm »

This is what NFL.COM is showing:

Meanwhile in Denver, the Broncos could be getting closer to trading disgruntled wide receiver Ashley Lelie. A trade could be wrapped up within the next week that would be a three-team deal and land Denver a tight end.
A number of teams have shown renewed interest this week, according to one person close to the talks, and Lelie is desperate to get out of Denver, where he feels he cannot be the No. 1 receiver. He probably won't get a chance to be a No. 1 anywhere else either, even though he led the league in yards per catch last season. But he might have more of an opportunity in another city than he would in Denver.
Either way, the team that trades for Lelie is going to want to try to sign him to an extension, as his contract is scheduled to expire after this season.

What, no mention of what teams are trying to get him?

No, would you like to speculate ? Maybe since we are in love with guys from Cleveland we can swing a deal for Kellen Wnslow. Possibly Daniel Graham from New England ?

Can you imagine Kellen Winslow joining that receiving corps?  Sick, dude.
Who's receiver starved out there?  Maybe Detroit trades for him! Green Bay's got nothing going on at receiver, maybe them...The Jets have Coles and nothing else I can think of.  Kansas City needs real wideouts, but no way Denver trades with KC...

I highly doubt NE would give up Graham for Lelie.  Lelie has been a huge disappointment in the NFL & would only bring a 4th or 5th Rd. pick in trade, maybe later.

As for players I'd say you would be looking at the Billy Miller/Eric Johnson type talent.
