Crazy idea

[Thaak]

What if we traded the #5 and DA for the #12 and #18?

#5 is worth 1700 points

#12 is worth 1200 points

#18 is worth 900 points

So that's 400 points difference, which is a high 2nd rounder.

Essentially trading DA for a 2nd rounder.

Not until DA is gone, Then the dust will settle.

I'd go for it.

That would be a great deal for the Browns. Think of the two first round players the Browns could nab...

then they would have two picks in the second round...

Oh yeah. I'd love that deal.

Only problem is that it leaves us without a starting caliber qb. We could really make strides on defense with 4 picks in the first two round though.

Um, the trade INCLUDES sending DA to Denver. Re-read it please.

Are you saying Quinn is not starting caliber?

If McDaniels didn't like Cutler's "gunslinging," why would he want a shittier "gunslinger?"

[calfoxwc]

Because DA wouldn't pout and whine. He just wouldn't care.

BQ looks like a starter to me every bit as much if not more so than cassel was last year..and definately more capable then DA to start and being that bq has more then a cob of corn for a brain unlike DA he will actually get better and learn from his mistakes...

There would have to be another reason for them to trade up to 5 then, because theres no point having Orton, DA, Sanchez and Simms on the roster. Doesnt make much sense for Denver.
