Also an example of getting a top 3 pick QB in the 4th round and nailing 3 first round OL picks as All Pros. Very unlikely either works as well for a team attempting to duplicate the strategy. i'm a huge believer in the draft, but the crap shoot aspect of it is the part everyone seems to forget when they decide a "youth movement" is the best way to improve a team.Oh I have looked at his contract plenty. You are right compared to many NFL QB's these days it is a pretty team friendly deal. Here is why I don't want to see the Broncos trade for Tony Romo...
1) While I don't think he fetches as much as you think he will he will still cost the team a decent draft pick. You have to remember that Bradford is still actually under 30 years old. So a team could see if he can stay healthy him being the QB for the next 4-5 years (length of a 1st round pick contract). With Romo teams are hoping for maybe 1 healthy season (that is closer to 5th round or later value. Still for me I would rather see my team build through the draft and see what these young QB's can do.
2) At least for me I would rather spend that $14 million towards the OL. Cowboys are a great example of having a young QB behind a great OL and just how beneficial that can be.
