Super Bowl MVP Von Miller is set to become a free agent, but the Denver Broncos do not want to let him get away.
In fact, according to a report from Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network, the team is very optimistic that they will be able to get a long-term deal done with the former first-round pick.
Per Rapoport, the Broncos are “poised to push” for a mega long-term deal.

Not only would the deal lock in Von Miller for the future, it would also give the Broncos flexibility regarding quarterback Brock Osweiler.

While there are few details on what a “mega long-term” deal would be, Rapoport says that it would make Miller the highest paid defensive player in football. In that case, everyone wins.
