If you think Smellway doesn't have some backup plans you're mistaken. He understands the significance of a good qb (not that I think Broke Brock Mountain is).

The odds that a team is willing to pay him close to that figure are better than the odds that he'll play at a level commensurate with a figure that high. If it comes down to that, I thank him for his contribution to this Super Bowl season and wish him the very best of luck in his next position.

Good grief.
Take the money and run, Brock. That's absurd. |

Stafford will be in Denver. Lions want him gone so Elway will trade for him.

Handing out a deal like that to an unproven guy like Brock could get a GM fired if it doesn't work out. Houston is the only team that I'm worried about because Rick Smith and O'Brien will probably be fired if they don't find a QB, and Goff ain't falling to 22. They just might be desperate enough to do something stupid...

He'll get released, he'll get a Matt Flynn like deal only to fail later. It won't be 19 million, it'll be like 12 million per for four years. Probably with the Texans. Texans fans will be pissed, they'll rely on their JJ Watt like always.

Yeesh...if that were to happen it would inflate the entire QB market. No way in hell does he deserve that kind of contract after looking good in like 4 games.

Denver would be smart to put quite a few performance escalators into a smaller contract. 15 million per with up to 4 million per in performance escalators would be the way I'd approach it as Denver. Anything over that is insane at this point.
As for Osweiler, he could push for voidable years at the end of the contract so that he can get out of a deal if he outperforms the deal. |

If they plan to use him as the starter I could see doing a four year deal with a $10 MIL per year base salary and a $10 signing bonus, bringing it to 12.5 per year. But he is a FA. So it's not a matter of being let go. His contract expires shortly.

I sure hope the Broncos pay him and hamstring their organization for the next few years.
