Yep, but I would rather make $5M+ and compete even if I was taking a physical beating. Don't think you can retire after several years on $690K but you can on $5M/year.$690k/year to not take a constant physical beating isn't awful...

I dunno man. Backup duty for a 10-15 year career isn't bad. Then go into coaching like Kubiak after that.Yep, but I would rather make $5M+ and compete even if I was taking a physical beating. Don't think you can retire after several years on $690K but you can on $5M/year.
No. No QBs in NFL wants to back up and retire that way. All wants to be that guy who wins his team games. AJ McCarron does not want to back up for long time. he wants to play.I dunno man. Backup duty for a 10-15 year career isn't bad. Then go into coaching like Kubiak after that.
Oh I know they don't want to - I'm saying I WANT TO. lol. That's precisely why I'm not an NFL QB - that and the fact that I'm 5'10.No. No QBs in NFL wants to back up and retire that way.

I'm 55 and would be dead or in traction if I took one hit right now but at 25 or less I could go all day and night.1. ) Wait until you are 65 or so, and then say you won't mind taking a physical beating. At that age, you will think twice.
2.) A few years at $700k? Yeah, I could find a way. Unless you live somewhere that takes >50% of it.
Get back to us, in about 10 years, and tell us how different you feel. At that point, you'll understand.I'm 55 and would be dead or in traction if I took one hit right now but at 25 or less I could go all day and night.
There is the rub: acquired lifestyle.I don't think working in the league 5 or 6 years on a rookie/back-ups pay are you going to be able to retire on that income with that persons acquired lifestyle. When I say retire it is to do nothing at age 30 with income earnings except for investments.
OK, maybe I should clarify this remark.1. ) Wait until you are 65 or so, and then say you won't mind taking a physical beating. At that age, you will think twice.
It has been said the browns may not plan to keep him. He is probably trade bait or maybe even released.I guess AJ will not be a Brown now with the Osweiler trade.
There is life after football. Ten years in the NFL would have you at approx 32-33 when you hang it up. I don't know why anyone would expect a player could retire from working at that age. AJ will have plenty of opportunities open up to him when he decides to hang up his cleats. Four years at Alabama and ten in the NFL leaves him with an extremely attractive resume. Plenty of people will be falling all over themselves trying to hire him.I don't think working in the league 5 or 6 years on a rookie/back-ups pay are you going to be able to retire on that income with that persons acquired lifestyle.

I think the Browns want more picks, but I do not think anyone will take that trade bait. They are going to be stuck with him and he will be added to the very long list of Browns failed QB. Again as I said the Browns want picks, they would have to give up one to get AJ. They currently have 8 picks in the first 2 rounds over the next 2 years.It has been said the browns may not plan to keep him. He is probably trade bait or maybe even released.
Saw some reports yesterday indicating they were trying to trade Osweiler for a 3rd rounder. Look at the number of picks they currently hold for the next two years.I think the Browns want more picks, but I do not think anyone will take that trade bait.

The Browns will find a way to screw it up big time.And how much money does anyone want to bet that even with that many picks the Browns will walk away with nothing and still be at the bottom tier of the league?

Latest rumor has him going to the Jets.
Gary Kubiak had the best job in the NFL for 9 years. He came in the league the same year as Elway and spent his entire career holding a clipboard and watching him from the sideline.[/QUO
Years ago Cliff Stoudt sat on the bench behind Terry Bradshaw for nearly 16 years. Cliff was still low mileage when he played for the Birmingham Stallions. Cliff was a good QB. Terry was a great QB who was tough as shoe leather.
