Official Cleveland Browns Draft Thread

Probably the master... King has learned enough to not compare Quinn to Elway.
I still suspect they're all NDC though -- and he does this just to get his kicks out of Buckeye fans.

I said his ability with his feet is like Elway. READ

Talk shit now but I'll talk to you in 2 years and we'll see if he's on the up and not on the down like the Browns still will be.

To be fair to these guys (a little bit). There are a lot of Browns fans/non-tOSU fans, on other boards, that want Brady. At least there were when I stopped going to any scout board since the crap ass format change. Most, however, realize that, even if they are in love with Dreamy Quinn, a rookie QB isn't going to do shit for a coach that's got one year to get off of the hot seat.

That't the problem with the Browns it's NOW NOW and not build for later. It happens every 3 years.
Plus I'm not a big Quinn fan. I just think he's going to be a good QB in the NFL. I heard shit from others when I said that about Drew Brees when he lost a couple big games.

You've got to be an 8 year old to think that. The only QB in this draft who uses his feet ANYWHERE NEAR close to Elway did at Stanford is Troy Smith (PSU and MSU TD throws were very Elway-esque)... but I would never come out in a post pimping Troy, trying to compare him to a legend (even if I do hate Elway and his damnable car dealerships...)
Brady Quinn runs NOTHING like John Elway. It's as apt a comparison as claiming Tony Hunt runs like Sweetness.

Why would the Browns take Quinn at #3 or #4? Teams 5-8 are not going to draft him. If the Browns take him, they had better trade down. Not that I think they should or would take him, but to take him that high is just plain stupid -you'd have to be eating king rabuf retard sandwiches to do that. If drafting Quinn is the plan, then someone is going to willing to trade up to get a Peterson, Thomas, or Johnson (whoever is available).

If drafting Quinn is the plan, the Browns aren't serious about getting better. But I think that goes without saying.

Browns have lots of needs, lots of options



By Sean McClelland

Thursday, February 22, 2007

Talent-evaluation problems have dogged the Cleveland Browns for years. Has anything changed?
General Manager Phil Savage, preparing for his third draft, would like to think so. For what it's worth, he says all organizational departments finally are in sync.


The Browns will focus on linemen at the combine, but they also want to see Oklahoma running back Adrian Peterson, who they are projected to select with either the No. 3 or No. 4 pick in the first round, pending a coin flip with Tampa Bay.

Cont'd...

Browns at the NFL Combine

Don't rule out a QB in draft

With GM's uncertainty about starter in 2007, it just might happen

By Patrick McManamon

Beacon Journal sportswriter

INDIANAPOLIS. - Charlie Frye was pretty much given the Browns' quarterback job last offseason.
General Manager Phil Savage dispatched Trent Dilfer to San Francisco and Frye was a starter in his second season.
Savage then said the team's goal was to get through a season with Frye playing 16 games, let him grow and not worry about the record.
The words this offseason, though, are much different.
Frye is the quarterback, Savage said, but only because ``he's played the most.''

INDIANAPOLIS - The pingpong balls falling right for the Cavaliers to draft LeBron James might be the last lucky break for the title-
starved city of Cleveland.
Browns fans who dream of landing University of Wisconsin left tackle Joe Thomas in the NFL Draft should channel any good karma available this morning at 7:45.
