When I think of DA, I remember the guys on Sirius saying that a team that needed a QB would be much better off giving up a 1st and a 3rd for DA than drafting a rookie. Now, that was after his big season, but he has done it in the league before.
Bear in mind that, after his big season, major changes were made in Cleveland including a new system and the fire sale (or suspension) of most of their offensive weapons (Winslow, Stallworth, Edwards, Jurevicious).
He may be better than you think. Anyone but Tony Pike!!
