PK, Studdard's dad played with Kubiak. Incidentally, Studdard's dad (an OT in his day) is now one of the ones suing the NFL about concussions and later-life complications.
Joshua, yes, I don't like signing guys when there are still years left on their current deal and the Texans have been burned by doing that before. But at least Smith seems to have got a discount so I'm not too upset by it.
Multi-year deals are a cost of doing business. If you could stay competitive and keep everyone on one-year deals, that would be ideal but it's just not possible in this age.
