Report: Browns looking to deal Quinn, Edwards

[Patler]

We are all talking about a mythical deal anyway. I can't imagine the Browns dealing JT at this point. He's one of the few assests that club has. Shaun Rogers, Corey Williams or Braylon Edwards are possibilities.

If the Browns were going to deal Thomas, I'd assume they want at least Sitton or Spitz AND the 1, so no deal, right?

Most of what we discuss on here is mythical!

I wouldn't give away one starter and a first to get one starter. It still leaves a hole, with no obvious replacement.

I would like to see Shaun Rodgers in GB. I send Montgomery and a 3rd for him.

Of course, all this talk of what Cleveland might want for JT is just idle chatter; cause he ain't going anywhere!

Straight up. They're rebuilding, not trying to dump every good player they have. Thomas is a player you rebuild around. No way does a team like CLE roll the dice on a 1st round draft pick (especially this year) in exchange for the future of the franchise.

Don't know if this has been mentioned, but why the hell wouldn't Detroit send the #20 pick to cleveland for Brady Quinn? then take the top LT at #1? or even swap the #1 and #5 picks for quinn...or something. Detroit has had plenty of chances at a franchise type QB this offseason, in the NFL I trust that before a rookie. And I know Quinn is unproven, but wow...

Detroit would do a lot better to adopt this philosophy and change for the sake of changing. The "Millen way" (whatever that was) didn't work worth shit, why not try a new path?

Quinn? Man I just don't know about him. Watched a game he started last year. You could've run that game plan in a phone booth. All short digs and slants. I thought "after two years, that's all they trust him with"? Quinn look at his first read, go to another short checkdown and take off if they weren't open. When he threw a ball over 12 yards, he tossed softballs. I imagine they wanted to eliminate the picks, but his arm strength looked suspect. I can see why he fell, he doesn't seem to have an NFL wing at all.

Though, with all the balls dropped by his WRs last year, you can see why he'd be hesitant to fling it. That Browns team was diseased last year, and I don't think they're going to be better this year. Particularly if they're trading away most of their prospects for picks in a draft that isn't all that scintillating.

That's agood point Lurk.

Braylon Edwards led the league in dropped balls last season. He was also the lowest WR in terms of passes tossed to him not being completions. Only 40% of the balls thrown his way were completed. To me Quinn looks like an average to below average QB, but who knows? Maybe he'd be a world beater if he played for NE.

Somebody is gonna give up a first rounder for Edwards too in all likelyhood for a ton of athleticism but evidently few completions. Thats crazy talk.

Give me a GJ over an Edwards every day of the week!!

Yeah, Braylon Edwards is not worth a first. Maybe a low second, but definitely not a first.
