For whatever reason, there is a ton of vitriol for backup quarterback as he heads towards free agency and a likely signing with the . It may stem from the amount of money hes expected to be given, because that vitriol got cranked up again on Thursday morning with a report of an impending contract with Chicago.According to Ian Rapoport of Network, the Bears are expected to give Glennon a three-year deal that will average $14.5 million per year when free agency opens at 4 p.m. ET Thursday. Kyle Hendricks Jersey When Mike Glennons deal is finalized with , its expected to be 3 years for an average of $14.5M, source says. Will still draft a QB Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) When you say fourteen and a half million per year out loud, its easy to think thats a lot of money, especially for a guy with limited starting experience. People have been .There is also a very lazy comparison to -- guy who is really tall and has limited starting experience and got paid in free agency -- when it comes to a se sing Glennon. Osweiler hasnt worked out well for the (to put it nicely) and people are a suming the same for Glennon. Hes a substantially better quarterback, but whatevers easy, sure, go for it guys. Anyway, the Glennon deal isnt Javier Baez Jersey even that crazy. , where they helpfully already have Glennon slotted in at $14.5 million per year in the average value rankings for quarterbacks, and the contract just makes sense. Hes behind just about every single starting quarterback out there, while being above all the guys on rookie deals and also above guys like and , who, you know, arent starters.The Bears probably arent committing $43.5 million to Glennon in fully guaranteed money, because NFL contracts rarely work that way. And they can draft and develop a guy without having to throw an unproven rookie into the fire.But dont try and talk sense to anyone when it comes to the unknown. Everyone is too busy making fun of the decision. Just out Ryne Sandberg Jersey of curiosity: In what football world is Mike Glennon better than Jay Cutler? Help, please? Pete Prisco (@PriscoCBS) To the Bears organization that sees Mike Glennon as a substantial upgrade and franchise QB over Jay Cutler Todd Fuhrman (@ToddFuhrman) The Bears are paying Mike Glennon $14.5 million per year. The Lions Man (@TheLionsMan) If the Bears are flirting with Mike Glennon to make us jealous and take back Jay Cutler, well gue s what Its totally working! Adam Rank (@adamrank) Someone should whisper to that Brian Hoyer is better & way cheaper than Mike Glennon & won't cost them a Chicago Cubs Hoodie future 3rd-round comp pick. Evan Silva (@evansilva) Just imagine the not willing to pay Alshon Jeffery $14M or so per year but more than willing to pay Mike Glennon $15M per year. Aaron Leming (@AaronLemingNFL) Bears fans are also taking this in stride and in no way comparing Glennon to Osweiler.Every time my ESPN app goes off... I get that much more scared it's going to read "Bears sign Mike Glennon" Adrian Rodriguez (@AyedrianJuan) I just can't imagine paying even $6M for Glennon. Did people not watch Osweiler and the Texans last year?! Sheer lunacy. Jeff Risdon (@JeffRisdon) Mike Glennon didn't just sign for 3 years for $43.5 million, did he? Seriously, is this Earth? Did the Osweiler signing not teach anything?! sherwood (@sportswagers3) Glennon=Osweiler. Overhyped and overpaid. Bears are going to regret signing Glennon so bad. Joel Davis (@PhilNantz) Chicago Cubs Jersey Mike Glennon is the Osweiler 2.0. Cory (@CoryJones209) Again, its kind of lazy. Theyre both tall. They both hit free agency. Glennon isnt going to hamstring the Bears with this deal and hes a better quarterback.Time will tell and its an unpopular opinion right now, but Mike Glennon for le s than $45 million isnt a bad deal.
