According to Yahoo's Charles Robinson, "multiple NFL sources" anticipate free agent Mike Glennon landing a deal worth $14-15 million per year.
It's only $3-4 million short of last year's Brock Osweiler benchmark. (Osweiler landed $18 million annually from the Texans.) Glennon showed plus decision-making skills as an 18-game starter his first two years in the league, but he is timid in the pocket and a poor downfield passer, offering what amounts to a game-manager skill set. He may end up as 2017's most overpaid free agent.

It is amazing how much teams struggle and how desperate they get to fill the quarterback position. We've been extraordinarily fortunate to have the QB that we've had. The fact that we were 8-8 last year is a testament to how incompetent our brass truly was.
