The "Inside Word" on the QB Search

[SmootSmack]

Reiff and Martin mainly.

If we don't get a QB or WR in the first I'd be dissapointed

I don't trust Eskin as far as I can throw him.

I don't know him but thought it was interesting that the NFP picked it up.

Also thought this was interesting:

Peyton Manning Willing to Work "Flexible" Contract

The Phinsider — According to an Adam Schefter report, sources close to Peyton Manning are saying, if the Indianapolis Colts were to release him, he would be willing to work a "flexible" contract with his new team. Basically, Manning would work a deal that would guarantee little money, with most of the salary in either roster bonuses, or on the field performance incentives. This could alleviate a lot of the health concerns teams may have for Manning, and make it easier to sign the leagues only 4-time MVP.

I'm not saying Eskin is wrong. Just need to hear it from more people. The buzz on Manning has been so hard to keep up with. Again, me personally I'd sign him if healthy.

Heard about the flexible contract. Also have heard post career ownership is another option

How much of a stake are we talking?

No idea.

I think it would be foolish not to consider Manning if he's healthy

Perhaps I'm being naive but Manning's net worth is $115 million and has the money now to invest.

Peyton Manning Net Worth ‹ 2012 Celebrity Net Worth

Snyder is a shrewd businss man with the #2 most valuable franchise ($1.55 bil), always looking for ways/people to increase the "excitement" and revenue of the product. For example, we're going to eventually need a new stadium to keep up with the "Jones" in TX.


I could see him working out a post career minority investor deal with Manning.

You still have to figure out how to fit that under the cap or the league would come down on us like a ton of bricks if we tried to skirt it with something like that.

I think all the talk about Peyton taking little guarteed money all goes out the window once teams start throwing offers at him.

Alright, the super bowls been over for an hour now. How come we haven't signed Peyton Manning yet?

Is this a serious question? I'm pretty confident it's a joke but even if it is I don't really see the hilarity.

So it comes down to Ryan "Clark Kent" Tannehill and Nick "Saban" Foles. I'd prefer RGIII but in all honesty I just want this guy to be good . I'm tired of rolling out garbage every week just to be watching a division rival hoist another SB trophy.

Just two names I put out there as examples. Certainly Cousins and Weeden will be considered too.

I'm 99.9999% positive we are adding 2, if not 3, new QBs this off-season.

I know you don't see the same guy that I do but I think Tannehill is going to be very good.

And I was completely wrong about Cam Newton so I am a QB expert.

I believe Cousins and Tannehill are very highly regarded by the Skins. But I know they were very disappointed that RT couldn't participate in the Senior Bowl
