More Blockbuster Trades?

I think Quinn is about the only thing we've got left that might bat an eye on the trade block.
Cribbs could be dangled, remember, Dallas gave up a 2nd for return specialist "Pacman" Jones. Problem there is we saw Cribbs isn't ready to be a wr.
And as far as this upcoming draft goes, it's starting to look like a goldmine to have as many picks as possible in. If the salary cap gets dropped, there WILL be a rookie slotting cap to balance it. That very well may make this upcoming draft the last draft without the slotting cap so every junior, senior and redshirted sophomore may want to make an exodus before they get locked into a minimum contract for their first 6 seasons. If so, we're going to see a LOT of talent and it'll be the perfect opportunity to roll over another huge chunk of the roster.

Quinn is under contract and he's cheap (he won't hit any incentives). Anderson is owed a big massive balloon payment or he's a free agent.If Anderson stays, it'll be because he was pretty damn magnificent, which he hasn't been so far (32nd rated... again). He'll need to win some games. He'll need to CAUSE some wins.
If that happens, I think Quinn is traded for not all that much, maybe a third round pick. That's fine, though, because that's an asset we can use. If we have a #5 or #6 overall, a 2nd, and three 3rds, we can do some moving to end up with a batch of picks between 15 and 50. Probably as many as five.
But if Anderson is gone, Quinn stays as a cheap, young, veteran guy who could hold the job for Bradford, Pike, or whoever.
Or he could compete with Leinart (!).
At some point (likely in the next 4-6 weeks if DA is still starting) I think he'll start asking for a trade. He will still be under contract but if his agent publicly leaks the trade request then that could effectively force a trade as he will have little value to Cleveland because it will be a huge distraction.

If somebody would give up good value for Jackson, he is gone. Definitely would throw a undersized ill-fitted ILB for value anytime.

Trade deadline is some where around Oct 14th. If he's asking for a trade, it's going on already and probably already is.

I don't think they will trade Cribbs, the fans would revolt. He is the one player with heart and dynamic talent on this team plus he is a local boy. He seems to have character and a great work ethic too. You think he wouldn't want to be returning kicks for a good team? Sure he would, but he shuts the hell up and tries to make us better every damn week.

Cribbs is also a great value at his current salary, even if they did give him some more money. I seriously doubt that Cribbs would be traded. Cribbs represents what Mangini says he values in a player and he is still young

Interesting. I wouldn't be surprised if we made more moves. I'm all for it. As long as we change WTF we have going on right now.

Trade St Claire ... Trade St Claire

Trade deadline is October 20, 2009.
Browns are trading for what? next year?
-
Corey Williams? Dqwell? Wimbley? Steinbach?
To bad you couldn't just trade teams. Like one team for another. That would be pretty f-ing cool.
Or get a trade like in madden when its not fair and you override it anyways. That's what we need.

Ah yes the overide. That and create a player, bringing glory back to Cleveland. Undeafeated Seasons and a pro bowl loaded with brownies.
It almost brings a tear to my eye

I know this statement is going to sound like nonsense, but. What if we were to trade Cribbs. What type of value would we get? I see on hear how much he sucks as a WR anyway. I would sadly miss the guy, but would he gives us more for the future. Any thoughts?

Dude, if the NFL worked like my Madden the browns would be 16-0 this season and have won every super bowl from 1994-present.

I dont know what we can get for him but........ If we do not have Cribbs running back kicks is this team worth watching?

Really? Wow I didnt even think of that.
Joking man! Your comment made me laugh because I have thought that exact same thing so many times, and I remember one time, after I threw a pick with DA, I quit the game and promptly traded his ass for Peyton Manning straight up!

To me he is not replaceable for us, but to other teams they have to think the same thing. I think he has the most value right now, he could help put a team over the top. Field position is key.

how about the rewind feature. how nice would that be on sundays

I have turned off the game so many times because I didnt think my stats were good enough. I was still crushing the team but didnt like the stats.
But that was a while ago. I have the ps3 and by Madden every year and now play it like all day one day and go into GM mode and don't even end up playing the actuall game. And then never play it again.
