Maybe those rumors I saw earlier about Denver wanting Kap is true?

It appears that the Falcons are the favorite to land Mohammed Sanu as their offer is over 7 million per year #Atlanta

That would put him in the top 20-25 paid WR range.
Until Kyle "WAH"nahan drives him out of town too.....

Wow, Osweiler to the Texans. Now what the hell are the Broncos going to do at QB?

Per Rand Getlin.
Shhhh...you can literally hear Hackenburg's draft stock plummeting.

This is kind of why I thought OAK/KC would be fighting it out for the West title. I thought they'd let Osweiler walk. Will be interesting to see what their backup plan is. RG III? Kaepernick (as mentioned)?

Big moves for Houston. They definitely were plagued by terrible QB and RB play for most of last year.

I can't see Osweiler being a successful QB in the NFL. He had a few good games and a few bad games. I won't be surprised in he fails with the Texans even though he gets to throw to their talented group of WR's.

Reminds me of Derek Anderson

He wasn't bad at all last year. Definite improvement over whatever the hell they had last year

Happy the Bengals were able to keep Iloka and Pacman. They probably need to address offense in the draft for sure.

If Hoyer, who I think started the most games for them, then they were nearly identical statistically.

Due to being a young guy with potential, I'd put Osweiler on a level higher than him value-wise, but not a "definite improvement" until he's shown it.

It was a perfect storm.

The Texans are in a position where they have an experienced and very good defense.
They had 2 major holes, QB and RB. They overpaid for both spots, but also weakened the defending Super Bowl Champions who are in the same conference.

They are going "all in" and I can't fault them for it.

Bengals bringing back Vinnie Rey, too. Other than missing out on Jones or Sanu, they're doing pretty well retaining their guys.

I guess this is just their offer, never mind.

Classic Browns. I'm sure our big FA splash will be overpaying 3rd tier WR like Bowe and getting old hasbeens on the cheap like Fujita or Kruger.

Looks like Denver & the Browns are in the mix on this as well...

Did I miss yesterday that Sanu was leaving Cincy too?

Supposedly he's visiting Atlanta today and if he doesn't sign there, New England. However the figure of 7M a year is ridiculous.

Already had agreed with Atlanta. That's why I made the comment.

@RapSheet

For #Falcons WR Mohamed Sanu, it's a 5-year deal worth $32.5M, source said. $14M fully guaranteed.
