Bridge QB Over Troubled Waters
-
I will say this repeatedly but if you take Cousins and surround him with the talent we can secure with cap and picks you have a playoff team IMMEDIATELY. I cannot fathom how anyone cannot see that. Cousins, Gordon, J. Landry, Njoku, S. Barkley and Duke is F'ing magic waiting to happen.
Having looked closer at him.....It would not bother me to have him on this team....
But...with what he wants....even though the Browns have a lot of money to spend....I think it possible that you could get yourself into a Joe Flacco situation....where you have so much money wrapped up in your QB...that you cannot afford to field a decent team around him.
Also...again...given "Cousins situation....where HE controls where he goes....I am still certain that he will want to go to a team far more "ready" to contend than the Browns seem to be.

Matt Moore....age 34.....a career backup...spot starter. Similar to Fitzpatrick...but I think Fitz would be a better choice with more starting experience. Possible
Moore is Less , No thanks
Gravestone on Boot Hill...Tombstone Ariz. (I have been there and seen it):

Why would McCown 'NOT' be in the good graces of Browns fans? If our previous FO's had any capability with foresight he should have been our QB this year.

Well the FO were tasked with a complete teardown and to be competitive in 2019 as Haslam said himself. But as he went back on it Sashi lost his job, for doing what he asked...
But this has been done to the death now, onwards and upwards I hope

MarkO's right..this list sucks..At least make a move on Bradford(they make china dolls?) Nick Foles, Man, we got a starting job for you
(smell camp hold out? with 1 low ball deal left ) hell Colt McCoy has been in league 4 more years than McCarron..Colts (he's now 31) got a year left with deadskins, Colt's not afraid of Cleveland..

Talk on the radio this morning about some QBs that may be trade bait:
Andy Dalton.....If McCarron isn't granted Free Agency....it may be open competition for starter in Cinci....to the point that the Kitties may want to trade Dalton.
Brian Hoyer....while expected to continue to back up Brady....he is not in any long term plans...and could be traded.
Landry Jones.....the Pitts may consider Josh Dobbs and their new backup QB behind BR, making Jones expendable.
Foles. Discussed above....not likely.
Ryan Tannehill. It is possible that the Dolphins may be past him. They may me in the market for Cousins.
And, oh, hey....a couple of names still out there perhaps:
1. Tyrod Taylor. Bills do not see a future with him. Not sure of his status...is a FA or not. If yes....signing him could be considered. If not....could be tradeable.
2. Colin Kaepernik. If we are listing FA QBs....he is on the list (with about as good a track record as anyone.) Signing him would take the heat off Hue Jackson....because everyone would have something else to talk about other than his suckage.
3. Like the Vikings...it is possible that all 3 of the Denver QBs could be in play: Osweiler...though they may keep him as a veteran backup. Siemian. Clearly not seen as the QBOTF for them. Same for Paxton Lynch. (not that the Browns would or should have any interest in him. We have our own version of him)
Some more info here: Tony Grossi's QB Tracker:
-
Taylor is under contract thru 2018 with $8,5mm in dead money... so the Bills will be motivated sellers if they are moving on.
Hoyer is under contract thru 2019 at a bargain price. Odds are they draft a kid Day 2. I doubt the Pats move Hoyer until their kid proves himself and that's not likely to be this year.

Wasn't sure about Taylor. I know that Hoyer was signed...which is why I said they could be trade bait.
On the other hand....Buffalo appears clearly done with Taylor. Though unlikely...I suppose they could just cut him. Teams have cut QBs to whom they owed a lot more than the figure you mention. (can you say Browns/B.O.)
Though...I suspect they could get some....even if meager, trade value out of Taylor.

Thus the term "motivated sellers."

Best job in the world now, agent for any good or nearly good NFL quarterback with any experience at all......even better than selling used cars!
GO BUCKEYES, BROWNS, INDIANS, CAVS, YSU, NAVY and yes I like ND! -
I think it’s obvious we make a deal with the Pats to get Brian Hoyer.
-
My choice ALL ALONG...contact the Jets and offer a 5th or 6th rounder for Josh McCown! He is a great option AND your QB coach when he retires!!!
GO BROWNS!!!
Except...per the Walter Football link....he is a free agent...and it would not cost any draft picks. You just sign him.
Is Walter wrong...or did he leave something out?

If he is available without giving up a pick,BONUS!!!! sign him asap!

Why would the agent's job be better than the QBs job. Agents only get 10-15% or so. The QB keeps the rest.
Best job...besides being a left hand relief pitcher, may be backup QB. Hold the clipboard, no risk of injury....get a few million bucks. Not bad work if you can get it.

I will say this repeatedly but if you take Cousins and surround him with the talent we can secure with cap and picks you have a playoff team IMMEDIATELY. I cannot fathom how anyone cannot see that. Cousins, Gordon, J. Landry, Njoku, S. Barkley and Duke is F'ing magic waiting to happen.
Having looked closer at him.....It would not bother me to have him on this team....
But...with what he wants....even though the Browns have a lot of money to spend....I think it possible that you could get yourself into a Joe Flacco situation....where you have so much money wrapped up in your QB...that you cannot afford to field a decent team around him.
Also...again...given "Cousins situation....where HE controls where he goes....I am still certain that he will want to go to a team far more "ready" to contend than the Browns seem to be.

While you are wishing for schidt that will never happen, why not put in a request for a new Breitling Chrono 44 for yourself. Cousins will voluntariyl have his nuts cut off before he would play in Cleveland. Don't be an idiot, dude. Nobody of any veteran skill level is coming to Cleveland.
The Cleveland Browns have the hardest hit players in the NFL -

Do you bother to read what you respond to Bludcart? I said that he ain't coming here...for the reason that he wants to win now.
Hello! McFly! Is anybody home? Are you asleep...or are you just drunk on that rum shite you drink?

There is no reason we can't convince Cousins he can come here and win now. You tell him you have our O line to protect you and Gordon, J Landry, Saquon Barkley, Duke and Njoku as weapons and BAM ?. That's 2 free agents signings and an entire draft to build a defense to support a top 5 O. Easy peezy we just need to get that Sheet done.

He doesn't really have the beat of options. My guess is Denver if they have the $$$. Otherwise, he's picking amongst teams that need him to be the "savior"
