Browns Kaepernick Rumors
-
Well...if we end up with McCown, Kap and Goff/Wentz the fans will be very confused about which one to chant for......
While it might sound like a good idea on paper, Id rather pick a guy and commit for a minute....but with 3 potential starters??? talk about your QB controversies......

there's certainly potential for controversy, but that only happens if it's a close race among healthy players.
usually injury dictates who's the "next man up" in Cleveland, so with the right coach it seems it could be a manageable situation.
it would just be so nice to lock up the entire QB room for the mid-long term ya know? just wishful thinking.

Offer them a first round pick, conditional that Ray Farmer select for them.

I hope they put conditions on the pick considering the favor the Browns would be doing for the 9ers if he never returns to form.
One thing about this though, it sure paints a picture of what Hue wants to do on offense.

MHO is our third rounder is too high for Kap, considering the Broncos only gave a 7th for Sanchez. Sure if he returns to SB form, we got a bargain, but I'm not counting on that.
So.... as I suggested before, offer them a fifth round (we have 3) or maybe a 4th (we have 2) and a conditional pick in 2017 based on his performance. (he makes the Pro Bowl, you get your second) Dear Sashi- cover your bases. And while we're at it, make the contract base cheap and heavily laden with incentives. Fer sure, we bring him in McCown isn't starting, and may well be gonzo.

This is bad. I'm excited to see what's happening here and I'm not even that big of a fan of Kaepernick.
Is it just my trust in Hue? Or how bad we've been at that position for so long? Or maybe it's my fear that maybe these two QBs in the draft aren't what I think they could be?
Please let this end.

Agree.... cannot see this signing and drafting a QB at #2.
A 3rd round flyer on Dak? Sure... similar skill sets. Keep McC as the vet backup/mentor for both...
But I do not like running QBs.... just don't...
Have I mentioned that before?

I'm not sure Kaep is actually a QB any more. Kaepernick might be better as a RB, similar to Denard Robinson for the Jags. Just like JFF, Kaepernick's next correct progression will be his first. I forget where I saw the story explaining that Kaepernick wasn't calm enough to complete a fullback flare on the first play of the game for multiple games in a row - he would transform the play into a QB sweep to the other side of the field from the FB..

I'm all mixed up on this. I want a QB at number 2 but not sure? If they get Wentz and let him learn with McCown I'm all for it! I see an advantage to taking Kaepernick only if the number two pick is Bosa and the 32 pick someone like Derrick Henry. What I'm trying to say is after 50 years I just don't trust any of the Front Offices anymore. I'd like Bosa, a wide receiver, running back and then defense. I'd be happy if we just played McCown!

Yeah if they traded for Kaepernick, then took Bosa/Jack, Doctson and filled holes with the rest of their picks, I can't say as I would be upset with that.

I would rather take a QB in the middle to late rounds even if we dont get Kaep ........Goff and Wentz are reaches at 2 IMO.
Best player available has never done the ravens any harm

Exactly. Is Hue not aware of this? At this stage of his career, you can't fix basic things like that anymore. Well, the longer this drags out, the happier I am. I hope Kap is asking for tons of money- after he saw what Oswieler got, and this deal falls through.

To be totally frank with you, I trust Hue more than anyone on this Board myself included. I have uneasy feelings about this but Hue is noted at one of the best in the league at getting good play at the QB position. If he thinks Kaep is someone he can get high level play from, I will cede to him on that. He and all the guys in this regime know their tenure rides heavy on this call.

Well if we get him Hue's tenure is riding on it. His bet to make, not mine.

Okay, but this time I think I'll do the wait and see. Quarterback Guru? Well great. Andy Dalton? Probably the most mediocre of all playoff quarterbacks.To be totally frank with you, I trust Hue more than anyone on this Board myself included.

Wake me up when we get to 5 + 11.
This time if it turns out I'm wrong it will be a pleasant surprise.

If Kaep turns the Browns around to the point of yearly playoff contenders I'll personally start the petition to name the stadium after him.

16 teams, including the Browns, would love to open camp with Andy Dalton

Goff and Wentz are reaches at 2 IMO.
says the fan of the team with no franchise qb.
how do you know they are reaches?
three #1's for RG3 was a reach, but only in hindsight.
when you don't have a franchise qb at all, to get one there is almost no such thing as a reach.
i don't care what they have to do to get one as long as they find one, and one long term.
i'm not even sure just one can get us through 16+ games anymore.
