Not saying that I want him . But with Denver supposedly going to Tag miller. Brock will most likely hit market. If so would you be mad if rams signed him

Why on earth would anyone (including me) would be mad?????

It's a roster move, one that may be beneficial. No point in being butthurt.

He's a good QB, coming from a good Team, Why not!! But I don't see the Bronco's letting him go with-out a fight!!

I don't see John Elway and the Broncos letting him get away, however, he could play hardball which could handcuff the Broncos because they have cap issues and they will use their franchise tag on Miller.

Overall I'm not counting on Osweiler on hitting the market.

Which QB would you take?? A or B? Overall stats are fairly similar in % Comp, Avg Yds Catch, TD%, & QB rating. QB B has a higher interception rate and is much more likely to be sacked. QB A threw the ball about half as often as QB B. QB B had a much better receiving corps to work with.

QB A = Case Keenum
QB B = Brock Osweiler

Not sure the money spent on a big contract to Osweiler would get you a whole lot more than what you currently have with Keenum. Granted the sample size is small, but if I'm spending big bucks on a FA QB, I want a proven commodity.

No way he leaves Denver....so no need to consider this...

I hope we don't pay ANOTHER FA QB $12 mill a year B4 he does ANYTHING in the pros...

Depends on the cost, but if it is high, no thanks. He has not proven himself worth a big contract.

Couldn't Denver Transition tag him? Or can they only use one tag per offseason?

I think Osweiler hits FA. Why? Because Elway doesn't settle.

If they do bring him back it will be at a non-bank-breaking rate. And they'll probably move up in the draft for one of those 3 QBs.

Sure, it's a possibility. But I don't think it's likely. If Manning is retiring, they'll probably try to get something done with Osweiler.

With the exception of the New England game, he was pretty mediocre IMO.
I could see him become successful in Denver but only because of his familiarity with the players and scheme.
