The Browns paid Keenum, 34, his $1 million roster bonus due on Friday, and reworked his deal to execute the deal with the Bills.

Mary Kay Cabot presented some additional info on the Keenum contract

No word I've found yet on what the restructure looks like, but the Browns did pick up his roster bonus so the maximum the Bills owe is $6.1M, and said to be less

Good use of a useless 7th round pick. Not sure I like the player but as others have said if Allen gets hurt it doesn't matter who plays.

 

I actually disagree.  I think if Allen gets hurt but can return, it's important to have a guy who can win at least half the games for you.

Trubisky could do it - career 29-21 and good enough QB stats to correlate with winning in the presence of a decent D and some run game.

Keenum can too.

 

I don't think Barkley or Fromm or Webb could.

Do we have any idea if this has been confirmed yet about Barkley?

I didn't hear Barkley was signed. I know the Tweet and speculation etc. That said we drafted Fromm with Josh in the fold I still not shocked if we draft a QB.

As has been posted, Barkley will be in town early this week, get his physical and sign. At least that’s the current plan.

 

Brandon Beane is God!

While we're talking about backup QBs, I wonder what would have happened if Fromm hadn't chosen to leave for the Giants last year. I said it was a bad move and I was right. He should have stayed here as he was waiting in the wings to be the long-term backup. Now, he's without a team entirely because he chased the temporary money in a really unstable situation.

I bet they still would have traded for Keenum. Bills knew what they had

Dont mind him as a back up. But for $6M? Waiting to hear that number come down to $2M hopefully.


I’ll be curious to see he final number… but $2m is optimistic unless he has signed an extension and moved some money to next year…

I don’t think Fromm was ever going to be the long-term backup.

Or he’s just not a very good qb.
