Do you really think we're 1 QB away from winning games? JD and Wallace is the best combo in years. Move on....please.

Im not saying its a soultion or its even what i want to do as i previously stated i would not have an interest in him considering hes an unproven QB but he has ties to Heckert and i was only posting something that has been rumored so you may think JD and Wallace are the best thing we've ever seen but that dosent mean that Holmgren or Heckert arent coming up with another option looking around

Fair enough. It does seem logical that they would look in that direction, I just don't see how it would make any sense at this point though. We have veteran, one of the best back ups in the league and a rookie project... I'd mess with WR's before I start changing QB's. But hey, anything is possible.

Why would you want to even TOUCH a guy with a concussion when you have a prospect in Colt McCoy? I think the only QB move that could be made is Seneca Wallace taking over the starting role for this season if he plays and beats Baltimore this weekend. Otherwise, I would think McCoy would be making a play for the starting or #2 QB role in 2011.

This season is one that is in so much flux that it is hard to see Holmgren making any big moves without knowing Mangini's future. I think McCoy is Holmgren's new Matt Hasselbeck and the upcoming draft will be focused on building our trenches - The Right side of the OL, the DL (I think Rogers might get traded for some mid-late rounders and low end prospects) with a couple gambles on potential gamebreakers.

#1 Pick For Cleveland = Cam Heyward (if we can get him)

No here also, we really need to produce our own true starting QB at some point...but i honestly believe we currently lack the personnel on the field and the sidelines to both raise and then field a competent prospect with adequate weapons and tools at his disposal...

Much needs to be done before we can have success on that front, that even applies to colt....

A more important question, With the 2011 said to be QB rich should the Browns use their first round pick to draft a Quarterback ?

I haven't been impressed with ANY of the top QB prospects... None of them seem to be very athletic and they all seem to have some sort of strange injury history.

Here is a quick run-down of the 2011 QBs -

What he said. Simple and to the point.

Kolb May Be On His Way To Cleveland... Maybe

I figured it wouldn't be long after Reid announced the "dog killer won the start over Kolb . I don't know much about him so.......... whatever.

All GM's want their own boys . We know all about that .

Must not be high on McCoy

I just don't get how he could want a guy with a concussion over McCoy... Healthy unproven wins over unhealthy unproven - every time.

Interesting- I'm not opposed if the price is right. That means NOT a first rounder.

where do we stand on draft picks for next year?

cant seem to find a list anywhere.

Gips

LOL, im not surprised at all..since that makes it obvious that we will likely retain the current staff for at least a while we will need to get a ready trained QB as opposed to making our own...yet again....

At this point im not convinced kolb is even worth what they will ask if they decided to trade him...but its likely they wont trade him anyways...

JD and Wallace are the best combo in years, agreed. But at the same time thats like saying someone is the tallest midget. If we could get Kolb without giving up a first I am pretty much all over it. He has looked good when he played. We have ham and eggers QBs right now ... Kolb is a roll of the dice, but he has a ton of upside and seems to be suited well for a WCO.

McCoy also doesn't do it for me. Idealy I would love to see McCoy and a third for Kolb.

Kolb seems to fit in PERFECTLY with the clowns.

couldn't make it on a decent team that is built to win now......................but will somehow be clevelands messiah.

hmmmm..............deja vu? isn't this the same "winning" recipe you tried with JD?

neomogo

Ask Houston how they like Matt Schaub. Kolb looked awfully good last year in his 2 starts. 1st QB in NFL history to throw back to back 400 yard games in their first 2 starts.

Schaub was a 2nd round pick that saw limited time on the field behind Vick. Houston has a bonafide star at QB. The Browns have nothing. If you're going to give JD $7 million guaranteed I would surely give up a 2nd and 3rd for Kolb assuming it's even a possibility.

By "couldn't make it" you do realize he only got a half to basically prove his worth after 2 monster starts last year. And his benching was due to a concussion and a big game by a back up against the Lions ...
