SuperKillerRobots Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 the "and company" are the same guys that were here picking Losman and Edwards. not sure why they will do any better this time around Nix was in SD those years. Unless I'm mistaken, he'll be the one pulling the trigger in this upcoming draft - for the first time in his career too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benderbender Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Kyle Orton has got to love this trade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob's House Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Wallace was a Holmgren pick in Seattle. He might be planning on developing into his franchise guy, just like he did w/ Hasslebeck when he pulled him from GB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Interesting. Curious that there is a COMPLETE turnover, with Browns' fans keeping their fingers crossed on Delhomme...fingers, toes, eyes, etc. Delhomme has a bad season last year. Brady and Anderson have thus far had bad CAREERS. Big difference. Delhomme gives them a better chance at winning than either Brady or Anderson ever would. That's not to say that either he or Wallace will lead them to the Super Bowl- far from it- but I think Delhomme, if he bounces back, can still produce for a year or two before calling it quits. That should give them some time to find their future QB. At this point, you have atleast got to applaud Holmgren for making moves to better the team.

Thoner7 Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Well Ill be one to say that I expect Quinn to do very well in Denver. I wish we made a play for him considering the price. He easily could have been our starter. On a second note, I like how Holmgren is being proactive in his attempt to fix the Browns. He is shipping their dead weight while we tender and pay roster bonuses to ours. Cant say Im too thrilled with our half dead FO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was terrified the Bills were going to make a play for him and then add a 2nd QB via the Draft, further complicating the QB position. However, I too am envious of Holmgren's ability to get rid of the garbage. Wish we started doing that (Roscoe...Donte...Kelsay...looking at you guys).

DanInSouthBuffalo Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Not sure if Cleveland got enough for Quinn but I do like Hillis. The Browns have some bruising backs now. I wish we would ditch some of our TE wanna-be's and trade for the Broncos Tony Scheffler. Him and Shawn Nelson would make an interesting pairing.

DarthICE Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 LMAO and you think it sucks to be a Bills fan? I mean the Browns suck and they sign Delhomme and drop both of their other QB's? Wow.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If nothing else, Mike Holmgren has proven he can spot, and develop, NFL caliber QB's. It isn't saying much for Anderson and Quin, if Holmgren would prefer to go with Delhomme, Wallace and a likely early pick QB... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thoner7 Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Oh yeah, Quin would be a huge upgrade over Fitzpatrick or Edwards!? I didnt say huge, but he is an upgrade thats for sure. I think you will be surprised with how well he plays these next few seasons. As I said in another thread Quinn was not the problem in Cleveland. Having a good team and some good coaches will certainly help him. Holmgren went after a guy he knew and a quality vet and is dumping salary. Quinn is a casualty.

mjohns85 Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Apparently no picks this year but late round picks 2011 6th round pick and late round pick in 2012 cleveland must have 100% given up on him,they practically gave him away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And add to it, the two best book end tackles to man that OL.....Kyle Orton found that he could make a career out of that OL and start 7-0 in the season.....I think Brady Quinn can do better. A very good fit for the system run in Denver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LancasterSteve Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Holmgren must've been really really really down on both Quinn and Anderson to pin his hopes on Delhomme and Wallace. Well as they say...grass is always greener Unbelievable that all these do-nothing rethreads keep getting another shot with big bucks to boot. From Mark Gaughan's "Inside the NFL" column in the Sunday Buffalo News; 3. Jake Delhomme made six turnovers in the Panthers' playoff loss to Arizona at the end of the 2008 season. Carolina still gave Delhomme a new contract with $20 million guaranteed. (It was worth $25.5 million over the first three years.) Delhomme promptly made six turnovers in Carolina's season opener and went on to throw a career-high 18 INTs. Carolina still owes him $12.6 million but cut him anyway, in part to take advantage of the salary dump in the uncapped year. He agreed to terms on a two-year deal with the Browns. The Panthers have made the playoffs three times in seven years with GM Marty Hurney and coach John Fox running the show. The fact the NFL is facing the prospect of a lockout in 2011 might have helped them survive another year.

Quinn won't even see the field in 2010 unless Kyle Orton and the 2nd string QB get hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
