Brock Osweiler is now tied with Tony Romo as the 14th highest avg. paid QB in football; $37M GTD ranks 15th. bit.ly/1IxOyTA

They overpaid and gave Brock Osweiler Tony Romo money instead of having to start Hoyer ever again.

That is pure desperation. I get why they would go after him, but I don't for the life of me understand that money.

Trevor Simian, out of Northwestern. I don't think anyone is going to confuse him with fellow Northwestern grad Otto Graham.

Texas is signing him to 4years/ 72 Million, who wouldn't play for that money. Apparently Broncos didn't think he was worth more than they offered. My guess is They go after a veteran and draft someone like Cardale Jones to ride the bench for awhile.

Maybe we could ship Manziel off to Denver in exchange for Von Miller or Emanuel Sanders.

hahahahaaa....the little dweeeb for von miller or sanders.....you very funny...hah hah hah...

Gotta understand the Texans viewpoint, they have a limited window with that defense.

And he's still young. Their fans can't be too disappointed. They would have never gotten anyone better where they're drafting. It's a lot of money but that's the NFL.

He played with one of the best defenses in the past 20 years, he knew he'd get the ball back all game long, and he knew he'd get a buttload of turnovers. He didn't have to win the game very often. I realize the Texans are somewhat similar, but even their defense can't compete with what the Broncos had.

They have to go to the SB in the next two years or they lose that window. Osweiler might be able to do enough to get them over. Same bunch of guys here that say Watt never won Houston a SB so who cares about defense till you have a QB. Well Houston went out and got arguably the best available QB in FA. Can't hate on them. If it doesn't work out they'll offload players in a few years and start over, that contract won't mean shit. I give Houston credit, they're doing what they have to do in order to get their team over the playoff hump. That wasn't gonna happen with Hoyer or Weedon or any other Cleveland scrap they may pick up.

But supply and demand dictates that lesser teams are willing to overpay. John Elway has watched Osweiler for 4 years so he and the coaches know. I don't think he's worth 18 million per year but as long as teams are willing to spend big money you can't blame players for going after it.

Because he's Brock Osweiler.

Zombo

Agreed. He hasn't proven a damn thing to get the money that was being thrown around. The qb market contract wise is ridiculous. Browns fans should be glad they didn't go after him.

Ask Doc Holiday. I've been to his grave in Glenwood Springs....where he died in a sanitarium.

He started 8 games.....and just signed for 72 million dollars. No analytics would support such a deal.

The DATs also just signed RB Lamar Miller for a big deal.

And now looks like the Texans have landed Lamar Miller...

Well one team besides the Jags is dead serious about building through FA.
