Quote:The market price for experienced veteran QBs, who can step in and give quality starts, is higher than most on this board realize.


Henne, with his starting-triggered incentives, realized about $3.6m per year over the past two seasons with the Jags. Matt Cassel received about $3.7 in 2013 (that contained a $2m signing bonus for the 2 year deal), and Matt Moore has a $4m per year deal (that contained a $3m signing bonus for the 2 year deal).


Unfortunately, if the Jags want to sign Henne, his market price is likely in the $3.5-4.0m range per year (and will likely have a signing bonus of around $2-3m if it is a 2 year deal). You won't get him to sign a near minimum vet deal of around $800-900k per year, and will be offered significantly more elsewhere. This market is actually pretty well established.
