Broncos | Optimistic about deal with Ryan Clady

Denver Broncos executive vice president of football operations John Elway said he is optimistic about getting a new deal done with franchise free-agent OT Ryan Clady.

Our View: Clady is unlikely to sign his franchise tender until he absolutely has to. He’s currently recovering from offseason shoulder surgery.

Steelers | Interested in EJ Manuel

The Pittsburgh Steelers have spent a lot of time meeting with QB EJ Manuel over the last month. The team is intrigued with Manuel’s arm strength and athleticism.

Our View: Manuel has arguably the highest upside of any QB in this draft class. He’s big, strong, athletic and has a rocket arm. Manuel lacks consistency and elite production from his college career. Too often he makes one read and takes off instead of exhausting his options as a passer. Manuel could be a first-round pick or early second-round pick in the 2013 NFL Draft.
