Happy Friday, MHR Friends! I prefer not to link to something I see as pure rumor, so I will just mention that there is speculation on ESPN and Bleacher Report that Seattle inquired about Brandon Marshall's availability. Honestly, every team should make that call to at least find out what Denver is seeking as recompense. One can never have too much information...
