Wow - that's great but he's worth so much more than $750K to the Broncos. Hope he stays healthy so he can get a huge paycheck.

Official Phillip Lindsay Really is the first undrafted rookie in the ProBowl Thread
- Thread starter Ringer
- Start date
Also, saw something the other day from Allbright where he believes Lindsay is the 2nd best RB in the NFL (behind Gurley). I don't know if I'd go that far, but I think there's a legit argument for top 5.
Phil has really good footwork. It even looks like it's improved since college. I remember watching TD growing up and he said something along the lines of, relax when you sprint and you'll be faster. I don't know how accurate it is but, Phil looks faster these days.
Phill has been the one thing sustaining me during the 2nd half of this football season...Thank you Taz
Proud of Phil, that dude ****ing gets after it.

Only 14 touches today and cracked 100 yards. Musgrave is under utilizing the best offensive player on the team.
Stop looking for a way to blame everything on CU.
In fact, I would say CU deserves props for keeping their commitment to Phil after he tore his ACL in high school. From there the school gave Phil a great venue to showcase his skill set, a college degree, and world class athletic training. Phil loves being a buffalo and we are all proud of the young man’s accomplishments. His dreams are coming true before our eyes. This is not a situation that needs finger pointing.
He will be getting paid this offseason, trust me.

I have a friend who is a Giants fan who texts me every week to let me know that Lindsay is over rated and Barkley is way better. I have to remind him every 7 days that Barkley makes like 7,000,000X the wage and was actually drafted.
Lindsay is a treasure.
Giants could've got a lot of contributors for that money. Just sayin'.

True. Barkley is awesome but they should have got a QB.
That's up to Elway. Lindsay is under a multi-year UDFA deal where the Broncos control his rights for 3 years and he is slotted.
Yikes. The owners have so much power.
Blame the players association. They wanted a rookie cap and this UDFA setup so that the bulk of the money would go to the veterans who were already in the union.

I remember laughing at that during the game. That was smooth, looks like he almost did the moonwalk.
If Phil could make 30mil in his career, I know a school that could use a helping hand ...
Not 100% sure on this but I don't think Lindsay can renegotiatehis contract until after the 3rd game of his 3rd season. If they couldn't extendh he would be a RFA at the end of the season, so the Broncos could get another cheapish year out of him if they don't extend.

He's done plenty for CU. He's doing more for us every week too
Head and shoulders.
