BRADY QUINN TRADED

[DawgsResurrected64]

As much as I didn't want Quinn to go, there was really no place for him anymore. Holmgren's running a new offense this year, and if he doesn't think you're "it", you're gone. Browns need a solid starter AND backup familiar with the westcoast style. Delhomme and Wallace (my guess is Ratliff will be cut) will be around for a few years at most while the QB the Browns draft this year is being acclimated with the new system. It also gives a few year's insurance in case the QB we draft isn't our guy. It's looking like this year and next is built so the young guys can adjust to west coast play AND be competitive in the AFCN with results. I still think Quinn can be effective if he drops the weights and watches more film.

The drama is over!

wow! Which X QB will have more success in the near future?

I just hope we get a real QB in the draft and not one of these projects that Phil Savage would go after.

Quinn always sucked even in college I got a lot of hate here and elsewhere ..........making a big deal we blew a first and second on that bum

Good riddance.................let him lose games for someone else............another Phil Sewage blunder drano

Not a whole lot of Quinn loving coming from this site, many here pretty much kept that in-check, so much so that those who were goo-goo eyed over Quinn, packed up and left the site.

The Cleveland Browns have always been the focus.

Rich, we are going to start a new tailgate format this season. Instead of having a big tailgate each Home date, we are going to pick approx three dates and have Huge parties on those dates. The inbetween dates are subject to differ. Hope we see you at the sacred land this season.

Why is BQ not on the new roster on the Browns websit but KW is? Hillis is already on it too.

[next2nothing]

Is Hillis a full time HB or FB or a little of both? I just would like to know any opinions on what he is going to do for us.

I like big backs. I hate all tweeners unless they are RB's tweening toward FB.

Let's pound the rock!

Bronco fan here,

You guys got a hard work ethic, selfless team player who takes on tacklers, good hands and a mean stiff arm in Hillis. I suggest you put pressure on your coach to give the guy the ball.

I'll be rooting for him from Denver (sort of...you know what I mean).

i agree 100%. just don't get the wimbley trade.

Wimbley is not much of a player never has been since they figured out his rookie year all he had was a speed rush.............stank at everything else.........another Savage blunder good riddance

Same, I like his size. Is it possible he is going to be our starting HB now?

Look at his stats form 08. He caught for 116 one game, 4 weeks later ran for 129. Looks like a Brad Hoover type back. Can catch, run for short tough yards, some speed and can block.

No shit, look at this video. This dude is 250lbs? Any every down back?

[Kosar_For_President]

Scratch some speed, dude can burn. No shit!!!

He runs over WIMBLEY, lol @ 2:20.

[/quoteT]

they don't even have the Wimbley trade on their site yet.

[cambridgeho]

He looks pretty soild, I wonder if we would use him in the TE position?

as a fb his main role would be to bang some heads as a punishing blocker. i would love to see him catch the ball out of the backfield like Lorenzo Neal. to me that's some real hardcore, blue collar football that gets the offense pumped up and turns the crowd into a frenzied mob. that is what i would love to see from hillis

That pretty much describes Hillis. You should be happy if the coach utilizes his talents.

The first few clips here show him taking on tacklers and moving the pile forward.
