Diles contributes on practically every special teams unit. He's on the field quite often. He's done well.

Regardless of the numbers, vince young is starting to look like a top 10 qb. after manning, brady, romo, favre, roethlisberger, hasselback, brees, and palmer, i can't honestly think of a qb i'd rather have than young. thoughts?

I like VY a lot. Growing up quick. Not yet a great-or even good-passer, but he is improving and takes it very seriously. In a great situation. Who else would I consider? Cutler. D Anderson. Schaub (if he can stay healthy). Bulger and McNabb-if healthy. Campbell. Not saying I would take all these guys over VY, but it is close for sure.

Here is what I found on the contract details for Schaub (looks like there is an "out" after 3 years and after paying him 20 mil)...

Here's what I found on Rosenfels...
Houston Texans QB Sage Rosenfels signed a four-year contract with base salaries of $600,000 (2006), $1.1 million (2007), $1.35 million (2008), and $1.35 million (2009).

Spencer didn't play long enough to show if the Pro-Bowl talk during pre-season was justified or not, so to many he is that caliber of player. He probably would have been pretty good, but I think the lofty expectations for his first year were a little bit over blown (see Jones, Jacoby). Some of his deficiencies were overlooked because he was "nasty" and the new guy is always popular.
