5 QB’s In The Room
-
We've positioned ourselves with 2 first round picks in next year's draft. They can be used for a QB. Or they can be used for an OT and a WR...or...a this and a that. But now, next year's draft is a long time away and no longer has anything to do with this season.
To the 5 QB's in the room: One QB is injured and will probably spend the season on IR. And if he heals up early, we send our pal Knuckles to see to it that he has a medical setback.
4 QB's in the room: Two are rookies who won't get cut. One is an old vet and one is a young vet that we traded DTR and a 5th round pick for. I'm guessing that the old vet is the odd man out.
3 QB's in the room: Pickett (or Flacco, if I guessed wrong) opens as the starting QB. Gabriel the backup and Sanders #3.
The hope: In short order, Gabriel takes over as starter, leads us to a playoff birth and ends our QB search. (or, if we glitched into an alternate universe, Sanders leads us to the playoffs with Gabriel as the backup)
THEN, the draft comes and we have 2 first round picks instead of our usual zero. ?
My guess is Flacco is retained to teach the two rookies as each gets a fair shot at being "THE QB". Pickett will have to play far, far better in practices than he did at Pitt. Otherwise he's toast. Flacco will be like Kubiak was for Elway, the coach on the bench giving constructive feedback as the games progress.

He did do a fairly good job in Philly when Hurst went down for a couple / few (?) weeks after taking on a tackler during a scramble run.

Looks like David Carr has chosen to retire at N.O.

David Carr retired from the NFL like 15 years ago...
Derek you mean?

I’m guessing they’ll end up trading Pickett, doesn’t really make sense with 2 rookies and Flacco now.
Flacco makes too much sense as the veteran given how knowledgeable he is of the kubiak/stefanski style offense.

That makes sense, but then again, the Browns went after Pickett and traded for him as soon as they could, while Flacco sat at home for months before the Browns finally pulled the trigger on bringing him back. On the surface, it seems like the Browns were more interested in Pickett than Flacco.
But if both are given an even chance to win the starting job, you gotta think Joe wins, right?
The QB situation will keep the local Browns beat busy all summer long. Should be interesting to see unfold.

The more I read and watch about Schwesinger, the more I like the kid.
But his playing style and as high as he was taken tells me JOK's career might be over.

So Zach said that Sanders looked better than Gabriel. And that they'll be bringing in a lot of WR's to the 90 because they're going to run extra 7 on 7's during/at the end of practices to get all of the QB's plenty of reps. It's good to hear that they've put their thinking caps on as far as how to handle the 4 QB evaluation process.

Zac Jackson on that show is really good stuff, him and Jason Lloyd are must-see guys, specifically concerning the Browns.

Somewhere after the 7 minute mark they also talk about Schwesinger and Breer said something along the lines of:
"I talked to an executive on another team a few days before the draft, and he said that he wasn't sure if Schwesinger was going to be a first round pick, but that he made so many plays that it was actually difficult to scout other UCLA defensive players."

Even if just a coincidence - UCLA has been a pretty good place for the Browns to draft defensive players. Don Rogers and Eric Turner became fan faves almost instantly.
I welcome the only Defensive Coordinator to earn a Superbowl Ring in New Orleans while understanding Revenge of the Nerds is a sequel. "Come get some!" -
I’m going to just drop this here. . .
