Jake to visit Browns

Dont be surprised if we trade for Brady Quinn. I can see us giving up 2011 draft pick for him.

 

OK you can forget what I just wrote!

Then there's always the chance that Jake plays well, and Davidson sucks

 

Oh, you betcha! The sports talk shows on Wed. (or whenever it was that news broke that Jake was going to be in Cleve for a visit) had the hosts and Browns fans in an uproar. They do NOT want Jake at all!

I'm sure a bunch! He will not be well received there.

All smoke and mirrors. The Panthers probably don't want to tip their hand. Sherer was the one that lobbied the Browns FO/coaching staff to draft Quinn.

 

I hope he plays well because it will be ugly if he is half as bad as he was last year. Like to see him leave the game not feeling like a total failure.

Davidson, suck or not, was not the guy throwing all those ugly balls last year.

 

Jake's going to get $12.6 million from the Panthers and another $7 million from the Browns for next year.

$19.6 million for next year. Poor Jake!

 

no shit I think if I got to feeling like a failure,I'd get online and look at my bank account

 

pretty sure NFLN said whatever Jake signs for, the Panthers get back

Delhomme will be given chance to start after signing with Browns

NFL.com Wire Reports

Veteran quarterback Jake Delhomme agreed to a two-year deal with the Cleveland Browns on Saturday, a league source told NFL Network insider Jason La Canfora. Delhomme, who visited with the Browns on Thursday, is going to be given every chance to be the starter, reports La Canfora.
The 35-year-old QB was scheduled to visit the New Orleans Saints on Friday, but his trip was delayed because his flight was canceled, league sources told La Canfora. Delhomme was released by the Carolina Panthers last week after seven seasons. The Browns have been actively shopping for a quarterback, a position they haven't been able to adequately fill since their NFL expansion return in 1999. Earlier this week, the team acquired backup Seneca Wallace in a trade with the Seattle Seahawks and released Derek Anderson, who took a swipe at Cleveland fans on his way out of town. The Browns' interest in Delhomme seems to indicate a reluctance to hand the starting job back to Quinn, who has struggled as a pro. Quinn is just 3-9 in 12 career starts with Cleveland, but some of the former Notre Dame star's inconsistency probably can be attributed to the Browns' lack of talent, as well as coaching and front-office changes in recent years. New Browns president Mike Holmgren said Friday that Quinn's future would depend on what other moves the team makes.
Quinn was rumored to be on the trading block last year, but the Browns didn't find a suitable deal, and he began the 2009 season as their starter. He was replaced just two-plus game games in by Anderson, who couldn't hold down the job and eventually was benched. Holmgren knows that finding a competent quarterback is essential to any team's success. "It's a huge decision," Holmgren said at the NFL Scouting Combine last month. "It's the most important decision on the football team, and the great teams have that guy." The Browns currently have 11 draft picks, and it's possible they could use a high choice on a quarterback prospect.
Delhomme went 58-40 in seven seasons as the Panthers' starter and led them to their only Super Bowl appearance in his first season. However, he threw 18 interceptions last season and was cut so the Panthers could trim payroll and promote Matt Moore to starter. Delhomme holds almost every Panthers passing record, and he broke down in tears after he was released last week as he said goodbye to Carolina fans.


Plus the Browns just signed TE Watson of the Patriots... I always said Jake needed a real TE.
