    I only watched Brock a little so I don't have much of an opinion. It's nice to get a guy with some nfl under his belt but. Current obvious knocks... turnovers and he went to ASU

    With that being said, the texans are just getting Orlando Pace'd again more than likely.

    Go Brock! Go Texans. If Texans don't get Brock... Hoyer's starting and a qb will be drafted at some point in the draft. That will be the facts I'll leave it at that. Screw what goes on at Kirby behind closed doors it's their business they can run it how they run it. At least the super bowl is here next year.

    so...if the reports that Malik Jackson is signing with the Jags are true, then it would seem Denver will likely sign Osweiler? I'm not saying they 'let jackson go' but by not signing him, they don't cap themselves and will presumably focus on keeping their QB

    Doesn't matter if they get Brock or not, if they don't cut Hoyer, BOB's dumb ass will find an excuse to start him. Rick Smith needs to save BOB from himself.

    I'm upset that we don't take chances to get certain qbs we could of had Brees or Manning in my opinion. I hope they cut Hoyer if they sign Brock. Just get Hoyer outta here. BROCK has heart. Then get Miller and Benjamin. That's a pretty good offseason. I think we still need to draft a qb.

    If they don't keep Jones and Brooks, I fear it won't matter what they do.

    Read that the Pats can't even trade into the 1st this year so a 2nd would be the highest single pick they could get from a trade but they could ask for multiple picks like you said. One thing is that his trade value will drop tremendously after this season. Assuming he doesn't want to resign to be a backup for another 3-5 seasons, this could be the last year for the Pats to get good value for him.

    But if it were up to me, I'd highly consider giving them #52 if that's their asking price.

    John Clayton says the Texans offered 5/80 million.

    wow. we are all in then banking on Brock as the QB of the future. If true and he accepts, I hope this doesn't come back to haunt us. But I haven't seen any indication that he has that type of upside as an elite QB? I guess I'd take a Joe Flacco type-ceiling and be happy with it if he turns out to be as good as Flacco.

    Very well could happen... and very possible they could wait to see how things go down in the draft before considering to make such a move.

    Trading their picks should only be considered if they absolutely need to move up to get the guy they covet, or if the player they wanted is gone... and they need a fall-back plan. Either way suggests they'll wait till draft day (presuming they don't sign somebody prior to that).

    Everyone has seen him play in live action and understands he is a bona fide starting QB. You people are pure trailer-trash to think #52 gets him. He will stay in NE.

    Broncos have cut players and restructured the deals of Ryan Clady and Demarcus Ware today.

    They definitely have the cap room to keep Osweiler if they want to now, but not much more than that depending on how they structure his deal.

    I think they are looking at Ezekial Elliot, Ramsey, and Buckner.
