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

    I think it's next to impossible to accurately evaluate Brock. 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 one of the best receivers in football! 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.

    Spot on... They had two glaring needs: QB and RB, and filled them both.

  • 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.

    i now the second part was a joke, correct?

    still wondering to laugh about the cardale comment or if you are serious?

    Crossed my mind earlier as well...

  • On the bright side, our QB situation is now better than the Super Bowl Champs.

    Your Denver Broncos #1 QB on the depth chart:

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

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

    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.
