Browns Kaepernick Rumors

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.

Even the Walrus didn't want to match The Skins level of stupidity in offering the Rams the entire farm. So... No. Some people see a bad thing before and as it happens.
RG3 was one of those things.

Ohhh....I misinterpreted that salary chart then....I thought the first column "guaranteed base" was ALL guaranteed.....my bad
Ah... I see now... the column label in my first chart 3 pages ago.... fixed now....
Here's the link to the OTC page... Shows three years of pro-rated bonus is all he is due. $7.4mm total...

So if I see that correctly it behooves SF financially to trade him out before April 1 or not at all, correct?

Holy shit a good read & Hue pack your tent, if, Kaps a golddigger too in a competition sport .. Quote--Kap is "wary of taking a lower $ deal on a bad team that is losing talent & that may also use it's 1st round pick #2 on a QB." Those are reasonable concerns, 9'ers & Brns. can agree on a deal all they want, but if Brns. requires a restructured deal from Kap to get something done, Kap holds the cards. The Hue & GM Sashi team has just met their 1st crossroads...

so talked to a die hard 9er fan last night and mentioned the kaep to cleveland thing and he reminded me of why hue wants kaep so bad is because he wanted to draft him in oakland when he was head coach, so for all those 'in hue we trust' people out there or ones that are on the fence about him (me) there was something then and now that jackson likes about this guy.
all i know (as someone has mentioned prev) is it's a big gamble considering a regime that just got fired because of the horse they hitched their wagon to, albeit an owner pick or not.

It is a gamble...but Hue has a reputation as a QB guy so if he sees something in Kap that he can work with, who am I to question it. If it works, we're all happy and if it doesn't we're back to square 1 in 2 years when Hue gets fired.

Again Andy Dalton, the least desirable middle-of-the-road quarterback in the playoffs? That's where the guru tag comes from? Or Carson Palmer? Palmer was a first-round number one pick wasn't he? And the guidance of Hue Jackson was where exactly?
It seems more should have been expected from him, no?

I'm not sure...just saying what I've read about him. After the shit show we've had at QB over the past 15 years, I'd take Andy Dalton in a heartbeat.

Actually, Dalton was 2nd in passer rating (106.3) 2nd in yards per attempt (8.42) 8th in comp.% (66.1) and threw 3.5 TDs for every interception. (25/7). apart from losing 3 games to injury, this was his best season by far. Dalton took a huge step forward in 2015 and Hue deserves at least a little credit for helping him develop into a top 10 guy.
-
Well maybe I'm just saying of the teams in the NFL he'd be hovering somewhere the Midway point. Really a game changer?

For the Browns he would be.

That's what you hope for when you have nothing. Or we could politely ask Green Bay to trade us Rodgers. Or maybe we draft another Brady Quinn, Brandon Weeden or Johnny Manziel. You can win a Super Bowl with a 15th best QB and a 1st rated defense.

Where? Whole deal he signed with SF was for just under $13mm guaranteed and over $10mm of it was in his first year.
Um, I don't think so Tour.....
So if I see that correctly it behooves SF financially to trade him out before April 1 or not at all, correct?
That's the way I read it Ag. He has a $11 million salary and a $2 million roster bonus that becomes guaranteed- April 1st sounds about right.
Not an answer but an upgrade. Goff or Wentz could be the next Andrew Luck but more often than not they are the next Teddy Twatwater.
MHO the only upgrade over McCown is he's younger. And apparently a lot more expensive.

at this point or any point as a browns fan do any of us get a say so in what goes on so.......
only time i really felt the bad vibes was with holgren and i let it ne known.
this regime just like the last, i'll give it a chance.
sometime, somehow the peeps from above have to know you can't grow anything if you keep riiping out the seeds you wanted to plant.

Well we don't have the number one rated D do we? We're just talking about the quarterback. if mediocrity is your goal, hell yes Andy Dalton is just fine.That's what you hope for when you have nothing.

Also if they were the same age and under the same circumstances I'm just happy with Josh McCown.
My point is if we are drafting at number 2 and Jackson is supposed to be some sort of hot shit Guru I expect an elite quarterback.
I wonder how many teams in the entire NFL would be happy to trade Dalton for their starter.
