Will Denver be able to re-sign Miller (who will without a doubt get an enormous contract), Osweiler (who will be in a position to hold the team hostage for a huge contract), and Danny Trevathan??
Might as well include Malik Jackson too
Brock Osweiler definitely will not hold the team hostage for a huge contract. Why would he do that? He is just a game manager and only started four games.
The Broncos certainly would rather cut a few other players than let Von Miller find another team. They could use the franchise tag on him if necessary. I don't see them moving on from Danny Trevathan either.

We were talking about this recently yeah they have an interesting off season ahead of them. I think Osweiler has played decently so far he won't get 100million but if Peyton's gone who else does Denver have if they let Brock walk he should be able to get a decent contract from Denver or someone else.

As it somewhat relates, this is where the AFC W and AFC S teams rank in terms of overall league cap space for 2016...
1. Raiders - $72.6 mil under
4. Jaguars - $44.3 mil under
8. Chiefs - $32.8 mil under
10. Chargers - $28.8 mil under
12. Texans - $27.1 mil under
14, Titans - $21.8 mil under
16. Colts - $21.1 mil under
19. Broncos - $20.3 mil under
Miller ain't going nowhere and neither is Brock.
I believe Von just might get a Watt/Suh type of contract with Denver
If Peyton retires Brock looks to be holding most of the cards and the Broncos won't let him walk

Give me 44.3 million in defense and o-line please
Brandon Marshall also is a RFA,David Bruton (captain and has started at saftey a few times), Derek Wolfe(starting elephant DE), Ronnie Hillman,Cj Anderson (RFA) and Vernon Davis. Also with miller,osweilor,Jackson and Trevathan they might have to get rid of manning,ware and Clady to keep them.
With Manning's cap number gone, the Broncos will have a lot of freedom. If they're forced to use the franchise tag to keep Osweiler, all of that freedom goes away.
Basically, if you want any of the Broncos defenders to shake loose, cross your fingers that Osweiler keeps playing, and he continues to look like a guy with the tools to be a solid starter.
