On one hand, I applaud the Denver Broncos for doing the right thing for the franchise in releasing Russell Wilson.
On the other hand, my goodness was the decision to extend Wilson and the way the contract was structured incredibly stupid looking in hindsight.
I’ve liked how George Paton drafts. I need someone to keep him quiet when the Broncos decide on free agents and contract extensions, though.
The good news is that with Sean Payton at the helm, I don’t think we’ll see anything quite so silly in the near future (I mean, they won’t have the extra spending money to do so with $85M in dead money being paid out).
