Raiders and Texans look like good value this early, AFC weak again.
Raiders young defense started to get it together at the end of the season. And they get some guys back
from suspension, iirc.

Texans look like the landing spot for Peyton. Esp if they sign a QB 1st round--bring in Manning to coach the rookie up and get maybe half a season/10 games
out of Peyton in the regular season, and then see what he can do in the playoffs for the Texans.

As of now, AFC South and NFC North have the easiest schedules for 2016. Vikings and their new stadium for Peyton? More a platoon situation with Bridgewater.

Don't see Manning going to the LA Rams and have to face Seahawks, Cardinals and 49ers defences twice each.

Houston and Minnesota were Archie Manning's last 2 teams. Peyton would've been 7 or 8 at the time. Handing off to AP 30 times a game and making a few passes now and then seems like something
39-40-41 year old Manning could easily handle.

manning has nothing left to play for. had he lost the super bowl i could see him coming back and houston probably would be a decent landing spot (minnesota is invested in bridgewater, they wouldn't "platoon" him). he dropped a big retirement hint by saying he was "at peace". there is no reason for him to return to the NFL next year as a player.

AFC runs through New England.

Steeler, Chef, and Raven have shown the ability to run with the Patriot. Steelers aren't offering value but other two at 25:1 and 33:1 are nice buys.

Don't as much value for NFC candidates. Could possibly see ATL 33:1 or NYG 33:1.

Chef, Raven, Falcon and Giant.

Those are the plays.

I know the Bengals are the Bengals but 22-1 seems like a fair price for them.

I think the Cowboys have a nice bounce back year but those are unreasonably low odds

Bears still miss the playoffs. The NFL as a whole sucks even more. I watch more hockey and baseball. Mic Drop.

Cardinals look like the best value there to me.

Lions at 33-1 seems ridiculously low.

I could see some value in the Skins if Cousins stays put.
