A lot of threads going up at the same time.

So they actually paid to get rid of him. Obviously a huge failure by the Texans but I'll actually give them props for admitting it and doing something about it. Go get Romo now.

Brock Osweiler cap dumped onto the Browns

Wow. I can't recall a NFL trade like this ever. CLE has so much cap room so they can do it...I presume they just release Brock now?



Romo to Texans seems imminent now, one would think.

Brock Osweiler to Browns

 

[What the Faulk]

Holy ****.

 

[Halladay]

Clown organization. The city here will be happy they got rid of Brock. Though they got rid of a 2nd.

 

[InjuredChoker]

proof that either of these GMs read this subforum, lol?

 

[Gene Parmesan]

DeAndre Hopkins is so happy.

 

[Timo Time]

Lmao, most washed player in the league.

 

[Scandale du Jour]

So no Jimmy G to Cleveland, meh.

I swear i seen this exact type of deal thrown around on Reddit too.

Cleveland has nothing to lose. Hold on the contract until you can cut him and get a pick out of it. Not bad really.

This almost assuredly means Romo is on his way to Houston too.

If anything, it seems more possible. They have more ammo.

The Browns are adding a 4th rounder, Houston adding a 6th rounder as part of this deal.

Might as well just keep him for the year, see how it goes and then cut him after that.

 

[Gene Parmesan]

We know what Brock is. Cleveland bought a 2nd round pick.

Which they probably will blow.

Yeah, and I just read somehwere else that the Browns can cut him at the end of the season without any cap repercussion. Basically, they are eating 17M for a year and that's it.

Would make sense for them to trade for JG since he will be cheap this year. The money committed to the QB position would be similar next year when they extend JG and cut BO.

I guess you are right and I "panicked" too fast

Still a few teams that could use him, let's see how desperate they are.

I wouldn't say that it can't happen. Brock Osweiler ain't holding anyone back.

 

[Terry Yake]

hahahahahahaha brock on the browns just seems like a perfect fit. romo to houston all but confirmed at this point

wonder if the browns will still go after jimmy g. anything's better than starting brock

 

[KaylaJ]

oh goody, possibly going from osweiler to a 37 year old with back problems.

Romo on his worst day is still way better than Brock.

It's worth mentioning again -- Brock Osweiler clashed with the staff in Houston near the end of the season. Made idea of keeping him tough.

I agree.

You can't throw an interception from the Injured Reserve.

yeah, that's not shocking. i mean, they probably know it's just not going to work out, but still this is pretty quick on the draw.
