I was wondering if the Broncos’ Super Bowl 50 ring is designed yet? I have replicas of SB 32 and 33 and would like one of SB 50. They have a couple different designs on eBay, but I don’t want to buy the wrong one. Thanks for your time.

— Randy, Denver

Randy: The Broncos have not decided on an official design. They are weighing multiple options. So if you see one now, it’s not official. CEO Joe Ellis is part of a group of Broncos’ personnel helping to pick the design. I asked if he could give any hints, and he respectfully and understandably declined. The Broncos will do something unique. They don’t take their success for granted and always seem to set the right tone in how they celebrate and commemorate accomplishments.

How high a pick can Denver get for Ryan Clady? Hate to see him go, but I’m sure we can replace that fourth rounder we don’t have.

— AJ Struyk, Alberta, Canada

AJ: The Broncos are exploring a trade for their former starting left tackle. His contract and injury history limits the market. It doesn’t help that Russell Okung took a deal for $5 million if he reaches all guarantees in the first season. Clady is nearly double that price and has essentially missed two of the last three seasons with foot and knee injuries. There will be resolution by next month. It would be a surprise if he’s on the roster when the team begins offseason workouts on April 18.

Why did the Broncos cut Aaron Brewer? He seemed well accomplished and did not cost much against the cap space. Cutting a good long snapper is a bit unusual, eh?

— Todd Banchor, Omaha, Neb.

Todd: He fell out of favor with the coaching staff beyond just on-field performance. I am happy that Brewer landed on his feet with the Chicago Bears. The Broncos are actively searching for his replacement, possibly a kid straight out of college.

Why is no one considering last year’s third-string quarterback Trevor Siemian as a possible starter next year?

— Terry Kruse, Centennial

Terry: Gary Kubiak continues to praise Trevor Siemian. He loves the former Northwestern stalwart’s potential, and Siemian should be even better this year because he won’t be limited by a knee injury. I still expect the Broncos to sign or acquire a veteran to push Mark Sanchez for the starting job (A note about Sanchez: He’s been practically living at Broncos headquarters working out and preparing to take advantage of his opportunity). Siemian, for me, would likely to be ready to start in 2017. This is a huge offseason for him to gain ground. I am intrigued because of his athleticism and high football IQ.

I’m a die-hard Broncos and Peyton Manning fan. Why doesn’t John Elway hire Manning as a quarterback coach to teach Mark Sanchez, Trevor Siemian and whoever else they sign? He can help them with mental portion of their games and hopefully make them a better quarterback.

— Bill, Indianapolis

Bill: Peyton Manning is not interested in returning to the grind. He would be a fabulous coach. But talk to those who know him best and they predict a role in broadcasting — NBC’s Sunday Night Football makes a lot of sense — and eventually a front office position. I do believe Manning would make a terrific general manager. But it wouldn’t hurt to take a few years off to recharge the batteries and wait for the ideal opportunity.

Why can’t the Broncos trade Demaryius Thomas or restructure his contract to add help to the team? He wasn’t any help in the playoffs and through most the season because he kept dropping ball after ball. He doesn’t play up the contract that he signed last off season. I am sure we can do better with another younger one or just get help through saving us some money to sign draft picks. I was really disappointed with his performance on the field, especially when the games were on the lines.

— Ernest Shay, Tsaile, Ariz.

Ernest: They aren’t trading Demaryius Thomas. He needs to limit drops. It’s that simple. With a regular offseason of training and camp time with his team, he should rebound. He was climbing uphill from the time he arrived in training camp last July. And he let the drops get into his head. I also think the neck injury suffered against Minnesota bothered him more than he let on, though he would never concede that. He should be better. And frankly he must be if the Broncos offense is going to improve as much as hoped and needed.

Troy, have the Broncos considered trading for Garrett Grayson? They seemed to like him before last year’s draft. What do you think are the chances we can get him? He’s sat behind Drew Brees for a year, and I think he could come at a cheaper price than Colin Kaepernick or Ryan Fitzpatrick, right?

— Brooks J. Lee, Portage, Mich.

Brooks: The Saints don’t have much incentive to trade him unless a team wanted to dramatically overpay. New Orleans drafted the former Colorado State star with the idea that he could take over for Drew Brees eventually. Giving up on him after one year wouldn’t make much sense.

I think the Broncos should use an early-round selection to pick Kevin Hogan of Stanford. From what little I’ve seen and what I’ve read, he could be our quarterback of the future. Makes more sense to me than the Brock Osweiler pick did. What say you?

— R.B. Jacobs, Denver

R.B.: Broncos general manager John Elway saw multiple Stanford games live. I am sure he has a good read on Hogan’s strengths and weaknesses. He’s definitely a name worth following. I know the Broncos came away impressed with Mississippi State’s Dak Prescott at the Senior Bowl. He and Paxton Lynch both could be possible targets in the draft. Prescott makes more sense because he’d likely be available in the late second round.

With Ronnie Hillman looking like he’s on the way out, who is the best option to become the Broncos’ No. 2 running back behind C.J. Anderson? Will it be Juwan Thompson or Kapri Bibbs or someone else entirely?

— Jimmy Winters, Aurora

Jimmy: Kapri Bibbs definitely has a chance to make the roster. Kubiak said Bibbs flashes potential in practice, but needs to become more consistent and well-rounded. That means improvement in pass protection and showing the ability to play special teams. I believe the Broncos will add at least one more running back to the mix. Arian Foster, a free agent, is a possibility though he’s on the backburner because he’s not expected to be healthy until June.
