    lol, excellent.

    I was worried they were going to try and pick a better QB then the Texans would have really been f**ked.

    Doesn’t preclude Jaguars from drafting a QB, which I’d expect unless Coughlin decides to pursue Eli — which would be dumb, but they’re a QB away.

    $26 million guaranteed = 16th best QB contract. Recent rookie deals got that.

    Bortles banks $45 million for doing what he does.

    I was worried, they would get Kirk Cousins, then they would be super bowl contenders, even case keenum would be better option.

    Best offseason move for the Texans so far

    Even less of a "vote of confidence" than originally reported...



    Coughlin is no dummy.

    His winning percentage in both the jags and the giants is the same .531. Which is a little above average. He did win two super bowls.

    Just think if they drafted DW4. Yikes.

    Very analogous to the Schaub extension... except Schaub had much better years preceding it.

    Bortles makes 26 million because he has a great defense. He doesn't even meet the standard of solid game manager.
