Nine free agents signed by Bengals cost less than Texans gave Brock Osweiler

CINCINNATI -- From a player's standpoint, Malik Jackson, Olivier Vernon and Brock Osweiler were free agency's biggest winners.

Within the next five seasons, all three will be getting paid upwards of $72 million.

Jackson tops the list at $85.5 million between now and the end of the 2020 season. Vernon will get $85 million in that same stretch. By the end of the 2019 season, Osweiler will receive $72 million from the Houston Texans, making him this free-agency period's big splash quarterback signing.

That's a lot of money for one player.
