The GM is nuts
Would have traded him away in a heartbeat

Who in the blue hell does Brock think he is

what did he do wrong?

Jason Cole ‏@JasonColeBR

It did not go unnoticed in Von Miller camp that Malik Jackson ($15M per yr) and Olivier Vernon ($17M) are making more than his $14M for 1 yr

 Mike Garafolo V ‏@MikeGarafolo

@JasonColeBR Broncos made a good offer at 17. And it was good. But now, that won't come close to getting it done.

Von about to be the the highest defensive player in the NFL, deservedly so.

The #Jaguars are signing S Tashaun Gipson, source said

 

[Peep Game]

Isn't Manziel gonna get a nice suspension for domestic violence and who knows what else?

Brock gonna be average as ****. Houston gonna suck again offensively.

Dipset General gonna Dip....oh nvm

Brock is gonna be good? He couldn't keep the starting job. He was bad and put up the same numbers Hoyer did last year. How is that good?

HE COULDNT BEAT OUT PEYTON FOR THE STARTING JOB

They'll be getting two linemen better than the ones they had, should be getting consistent with the running game, and a very good defense. Brock didn't lose his job through bad play, he lost it cause Peyton decided he was finally healthy enough to come back. They may have had "similar stats", but you I don't remember Brock having any games at all like vs the Falcons, Dolphins, and Chiefs. You should try basing your opinion on some tangible facts instead of emotions. And your caps lock is on.

 

[dmxfury]

Brock was on a great team to succeed and improve. Could've been very Ben or RW like. Not sure if Houston will provide the same atmosphere

who's making the new thread & when will it be made?

Didn't the comments come out after the report about Brock not talking to peeps and mgmt? Don't think it was about him signing with Tex

 

[Hahahaha]

Hahahahaha, basing my opinion on facts and not emotions? Why would I be emotional about Brock? Facts and stats show that he's average as hell. Peyton was benched because of poor play and injuries. Peyton tried to come back multiple times and they wouldn't let him. Then, Brock wasn't getting the job done and they sent him to the bench.

 

[NickFolarin]

Still surprised the picked Allen over Fleener, given his history with Luck.

Luck has no more pull??? [emoji]128064[/emoji]

[son nelly]

They didn't pick him moreso than Fleener is more expensive. They still paid a bunch for Allen but thats likely because they didn't want to lose both.

The contract J.J. Watt signed less than 1 year ago averages $16,666,667. If those numbers are on, Olivier Vernon just passed him at $17M APY

More gtd numbers than Watt as well?

Von Miller must be doing the Birdman hand rub right now.

vons numbers are going to be filthy

Brock treating the Bronco's like an ex friend

@MikeKlis: Broncos figured Brock Osweiler didn't want to come back when he stopped returning phone calls to coaches/some teammates past 2 weeks. #9news

female tendencies

 

[IATT]

If fleener got all that, I think we got a steal on ertz

 

[Hahahaha]

I want the Giants to after Anquan. We need a WR, even if we bring Cruz back.

better question

who the hell is offering a first for Mike Glennon ?!?

Jerry Reese has to spend it. If Giants miss the playoffs this year, he's gone. He's desperate.

Seahawks carry Marshawn Lynch on roster into 2016 league year

Running back Marshawn Lynch is retired, unofficially. Officially, he’s still a member of the Seahawks’ roster.

The new league year has arrived without the Seahawks releasing Lynch or placing him on the reserve-retired list. It means that the Seahawks will carry Lynch and his $11.5 million cap number into the 2016 league year.

It remains unclear why the Seahawks haven’t removed Lynch from the roster. One theory is that they’ll wait to do it until after June 1, so that he’ll count $2.5 million against the cap this year, and $2.5 million next year. Another theory is that Lynch is dragging his feet so that he’ll be cut — and so that if he decides to unretire later he’ll do so as a free agent.

Regardless, Lynch remains on the team, at least for now. And possibly for a while longer.

I know that they had every intentions to pay him the remainder of his contract. Since that's the case, I guess it doesn't hurt to leave him on the roster until they need to cut him to keep someone else.

Why hasn't Eric Weddle been taken yet? He's prob going for cheap. Could still cover well.

Cause he's 31.

But he's the type of player that you can put him Anywhere on the field and he can do it. You can play him deep, you can put him mid field, drop him in the box, have him cover. He can do it all. But again, he's 31. And the Chargers got Brandon mebane who's also 31.

The longer he's out there, the better chance of a discount. At a discount, I would love to see him as a Viking. Bolts for horns.

Ah, yes...Another reason for someone to be baited into taking him in fantasy football next season.
