Yeah, because Russ had a no trade clause. There were only three teams he was willing to sign off on. It would've been pure negligence for Schneider to not ask Denver if they were interested, especially since it was common knowledge that they were sniffing around Aaron Rodgers. Denver was also rich in draft capital and, most likely, had the highest pick to give up out of all three teams Russ said he would go to.
