Jay Cutler could be done in Chicago
Jay Cutler is a Pro Bowl quarterback. But his last Pro Bowl season came when George W. Bush was still in the White House. A lot has changed since 2008, with Cutler throwing 109 interceptions in eight seasons with the Chicago Bears.
The Bears won just one playoff game during that span, and it looks as though they're ready to move on from the 33-year-old. In fact, according to La Canfora, the team is "eager" to part ways with Cutler, potentially in order to make a run at New England Patriots backup Jimmy Garoppolo.
That alone is an indictment on a quarterback who hasn't won a lot of big games and hasn't played a full season this decade. But he has a heck of a lot of talent and experience, and he has connections to New York Jets quarterbacks coach Jeremy Bates and Buffalo Bills offensive coordinator Rick Dennison.
Look for Cutler to get a shot in one of those two places, if not San Francisco or Houston.
Prediction: He signs a two-year deal with the Bills.
Will Brock Osweiler Be 1-and-Done?
Plenty of eyebrows were raised when the Houston Texans signed four-year Denver Broncos backup quarterback Brock Osweiler to a monster contract in the 2016 offseason (four years, $72 million), mainly because the 26-year-old had just seven career starts under his belt.
But that goes to show how desperate teams get in search of stud quarterbacks, and it might indicate that Houston could be willing to move on from Osweiler after just one stinky season. Osweiler was the second-lowest-rated qualified passer in 2016, and the Texans know they have Super Bowl-level talent elsewhere.
Osweiler's big contract probably isn't tradable, and the team will owe him $16 million regardless in 2017. Still, the Texans have a decent amount of cap space, and they're likely desperate enough to swallow that and give someone like Romo a shot.
Prediction: The Texans go all in on Romo. Osweiler signs a one-year deal with the Bears, reuniting with John Fox.
