Freeman: Would you?

[Nconroe]

We don't really know what Kubiak would do if he had a QB like Manning, just speculate.

At the time Manning was still not fully recovered from 3 surgeries, one had to worry if Manning could come back and if he would be reinjured.

Now we know.

Freeman has been cut. He is collecting his full $8 million salary from Tampa. I would absolutely acquire him for no cost and limited salary so we get a 3 month in house audition (and legitimate alternative to Schaub).

[Nconroe]

So, does Freeman need to clear waivers and then he can negotiate where he prefers? Could be interesting.

[Warren]

No, players with four or more seasons dont go through waivers. He's in his fourth year.

[HPF Bob]

IIRC, he's in his fifth year. If the Texans sign him, though, it will be as much as admitting Schaub's days here are numbered. Instant QB controversy. It would have been better for Rick Smith if this had waited until February.

Perhaps a few other teams, like Jacksonville, will over pay for Freeman at this time?

With $8 million from Tampa I'd be shocked if he makes the decision based on finances.
