Elway had some success in free agency the year before he signed Manning. Willis McGahee, Broderick Bunkley, Tracy Porter, and Daniel Fells all made big contributions their first year in Denver.
Hell, Willis McGahee made the Pro Bowl and Bunkley played so well in Denver that the Saints gave him a $25M contract the following offseason. [Reply]
And while Manning certainly helped in bringing in guys like Welker, Sanders, and maybe even Ware, he probably didn't have a lot to do with some of the "under the radar" guys we were signing.
Guys like Terrence Knighton, Brandon Marshall, Dan Koppen, DRC, Darian Stewart, Trindon Holliday, Mike Adams, Shaun Phillips, Jeremy Mincey, Louis Vasquez, Will Montgomery... All of them made significant contributions to the team, and only Vasquez and DRC were "name" players when they came to Denver. [Reply]

Brace yourself. They'll put him in the Hall again when he's done. [Reply]
