I think not. He isn't that good.Okay, so the Qb prize of free agent will be - Osweiler, who would be foolish to sign a deal with Denver before exploring the market given today's developments. So, the question is this: should the Texans engage in abidding war to go get this guy? I think so. I saw enough from him this year to believe he is our best shot at finding an answer at Qb.
Same here, he just isn't that good. He's very inconsistent!I think not. He isn't that good.
I'd rather trade for Colin Kaepernick and see if Mario Williams or DeMeco Ryans (both if we can) would be willing to sign cheap deals to return to H-Town as veteran leaders. Not sure we can make it all work under the salary cap unless we get rid of some salary. Arian Foster will surely be released. J-Jo may be a goner sooner rather than later. Wherever we can find some cap relief I'm down for it. Brian Cushing, hmm, he's going to be here in 2016.Okay, so the Qb prize of free agent will be - Osweiler, who would be foolish to sign a deal with Denver before exploring the market given today's developments.

I'd love to have Ryans back, not sure I'd bring Mario back as a veteran leader.
He wasn't properly used in Rex Ryan's defense. He was asked to drop off in coverage and whined about it all season.What happened to Mario this last season? Was averaging 12.5 sacks his first three years in Buffalo and didn't miss a game. Last season only missed one game but 5.0 sacks. Scheme? Playing injured? On The Job Retirement?
At 31 with almost 100 career sacks, you think he would be an upgrade over Crick (who moves to depth) and could play an Antonio Smith type role complimenting Watt. Just seems like his "take plays off" rep expanded to the entire season. And I imagine he still wants non-team friendly money.

Love me some D-Ryans, but we need to get faster not slowerI'd love to have Ryans back, not sure I'd bring Mario back as a veteran leader.
Now, there's someone I'd take a look at real closely.Alex Mack opts out of contract with Browns. Now a FA.

Titans signed Brice McCain to a 2-year, $4.4M deal.
Let's,pick up Matt schaub for the vet min
That's some seriously next level stuff there. Mango's don't take you there.Hanging out with Jalen Strong I see ... be careful some guys dont like that too much 'round here' LOL

This has to be an act.
Silly Vikings. HA!It's a Norg
Rex Ryan happened. Bills were 1st in sacks in 2013 and 6th in 2014. They were 31st under Rex last year. He came in and changed the scheme and had guys like Mario and Marcell Dareus doing zone drops. It was insane. Mario had a right to be pissed although airing it out publicly is not the correct way to address that.
Someone will pay Mario at least 10m. They're plenty of teams that can use him. He's still a very good player.
Good for that team.
Party on Mario.
I domt understand the fasination with bringing back MW, AJ, keeping Foster.
Out with the old in with the new.
Manning doesn't sound like a guy ready to retire
Anyone willing to kick the tires on him? I am, if the price is right and CnD gives the green light.

I approve this message
I could see da Raidah's making a run at him. Loads of cap space and putting MW on the field with Mack would be a good move for them. Atlanta makes a lot of sense, also.I heard on SiriusXM NFL Radio this morning that Houston has let it be known through back channels that we don't want him. I believe it was Ross Tucker or Booger McFarland who said it.
I'm thinking he'll end up with the Jets.

Exactly why I asked for your considered opinion. LolPlantar fasciitis is bad foot injury for any athlete to deal with. Conservative treatment with extended rest tends to be the standard approach, but there is no guarantee Manning will be pain-free this next season. Plantar fasciitis can linger. It is one of the most difficult athletic injuries to heal, partly because there is so little blood flow around the heel and also because any sort of running or jumping continues to offset the various treatment options, primarily physical therapies and anti-inflammatory medicines. Even after extended rest, recurrence is common. Surgery is considered a last option and certainly not a desired one, as the recovery can be lengthy, up to a year. Even with surgery, there is a 15% failure rate.
It is important to consider that Manning's fascial tear was in his right foot.........his plant and push-off foot............a perfect setup for chronicity and recurrence. And remember that Manning's case was not a mild case.........he missed 6 weeks (and played as though he should have missed the 7th). Actually, Manning had already been dealing with this problem for ~5 months.
It is inarguable that Manning's past cervical nerve damage has left his arm strength weakened. At this point in time, additional nerve regeneration (improvement) cannot be expected and deterioration can occur. As I've spoken to this in the past, when 1 or 2 levels of cervical fusion is performed, it is common for the adjacent levels to later show progressive deterioration.........which will again require surgical attention to prevent further debilitation (something that I have already heard is being considered). The more trauma he sustains while playing, the closer to this scenario he is likely to be. When your arm strength is compromised, so is your accuracy in tight windows and mid to long passes. This along with a foot problem with your plant/push-off foot (a la Schaub), foot work and accuracy can quickly go down the toilet and interceptions reach entirely unacceptable rates (2015........9 TDs/17INTs).
I'll let everyone make their own final conclusion.

Damaged nerves from the Peripheral Nervous System such as the radial nerve can regenerate...........the extent is variable depending on the nature of the injury.........the larger the nerve, the less can usually be expected........the end point of regeneration is usually reached ~ the 2 year mark.Do nerves regenerate?

FWIW Lance Zierlein just said on Sports talk 790 that there was a buzz/rumors at the combine that the Texans are gonna make a big offer to Brock Osweiler.
I'd have no problems with a contract averaging close to that. Would depend on guaranteed monies and the structure of the contract.
