Isn't Rosen a bit of a headcase? Like, he's smarter than most NFL players and he kind of knows it, so he comes across as a bit of an asshole?
Usually those guys make terrible backups. Andy Reid could put Tyler Palko in a dress and get people to believe he's a legit backup, but why deal with that headache if you don't have to? |

Dude can legitimately sling the rock. No idea if he has it between the ears, but if Reid is onboard so am I. |

And maybe the ego goes in check once he backs up the best QB on the planet. Rosen could be a classic case of buying low. In a year, he could be a good backup, and potentially spun into a high draft pick. |

Rosen went from being a sure fire first round QB from UCLA, to spending 1 season on a shitty and unorganized Cardinals team, to being traded to shitty and unorganized Miami Dolphins team. The guy hasn't complained even once. He's got ideal size, athleticism and arm strength. What he needs now is stability in a good organization that's hired a great QB coach and offensive coordinator. Until that happens, he won't be able to grow as an NFL QB and unfortunately for him, he is not a fit for Chan Gailey's Pistol offense. |

"Journalists" questioned whether or not he "really wanted to play football" because he comes from a wealthy Jewish family in which both of his parents are doctors. What those same people fail to mention is that both of his parents were Olympic athletes and that Josh Rosen has been an excellent athlete his entire life. The smear campaign led him to fall to #10 overall, which is a shame because had he gone to any team other than a dumpster fire, his career would most likely be different to date. |

That's an excellent point I hadn't considered. The Cardinals regretted the Steve Wilks era after one season and flushed it all down the toilet. They ruined a few lives by making those hires/signings and then never giving them a chance.
It took Jim Harbaugh for Alex to actually find success, but that's a different franchise and a different time where those players actually got opportunities to stick around even if their careers had some rough starts with the shit they're surrounded with. For Rosen's sake, he needs to hope and pray he finds his way to a good environment where he can develop and not some god forsaken shit hole like Detroit. Thus far the only franchises who have taken those chances on him have been god forsaken shit holes. |

He has quite possibly the worst case of resting bitch face I've ever seen on an athlete. Poor bastard probably gets a bad rep from that.

$2M this year (counting the roster bonus) and $3M next year.
Pretty pricey for a 3rd stringer. |

He's a strange guy. I ran into him at a Dr's office that I have co- treated a number of patients with over the years his rookie year. I was waiting briefly for a lunch meeting with the doctor. Here comes in sits down next to me and plants his face in his phone for a good 5-10 minutes without once looking up. Doesn't respond to either the front office girl or nurse when they asked him "morning Josh, how are you today?" in passing.
That said I'd love to see Andy turn him into a 2nd rounder a la Kolb/Feeley given the chance. |

I'd cut Henne in a heartbeat to sign that kid for the back-up spot. A couple of pre-seasons of lighting it up in Andy's offense and flip him for a first or second.
