Broncos offer to Osweiler: 3 years, more than $45 million http://www.9news.com/sports/broncos-offer-to-osweiler-3-years-more-than-45-million/69607526…
good lord thats ridiculous
What is ridiculous, that they only offered $15M in a world where Sam Bradford gets $18M per and Kurt Cousins gets almost $20M? Bill OBrien or Jeff Fischer will pay BrockO $16M per in half a heartbeat. You are misreading the QB market.
What are the Bronco's alternatives? I fucking love the idea of RG3 starting at QB for the Broncos next year. Are they going to outbid the Jets for Ryan Fitzpatrick? Are they going to trade half of their draft for Paxton Lynch, when they are losing 5-6 players to free agency and need to rebuild their depth? Osweiler has them over a barrel (complete with naked dude inside of it) and they have to pay him to beat the market. This is the cost of negotiating hard with Von Miller.
