Isn't that a rule?

Beyond that, who knows how severe Campbell's concussion is and whether or not he will be able to play next week.

In any event....it may not be a bad idea to bring in another QB....because the two we got suck swamp water in any event.

Comedy relief? That is the only thing I can think of! Because right on schedule, November has just about come and gone, and ONCE AGAIN the Browns will be playing for NOTHING down the stretch!

@tim-couch-pulls-out said:

no that's not bad BUT those numbers in now way justify moving up to get him. if we pick 8th like someone said above he should be there, but like you said the browns can't do anything right when picking a QB so it'll prob be johnny 'the punk' manziel.

wonder if he's realated to the leat great queen, merv griffen.

yeah that RG3 ship is taking on water, real fast.

Did anyone watch Hundley against Oregon? He was awful. Doesn't show up in big games. Doesn't read presnap and make adjustments.

That's not necessarily fair, UCLA as a whole got handled against Oregon. Their offense barely got to function, Hundley was only able to throw 19 passes in that game, and he still completed 13 for a percentage near 70%.

That was just a pure overmatch.

You have to remember, this is a team that were considered 5 point underdogs to Nevada this season. He's doing amazing things on a team that really has no place winning.

He's posted solid numbers against Stanford, USC and Cal for his career. For a redshirt sophomore to average around 70% completion and around 200 yards per game passing and 50 rushing against the top teams in the Pac 12? That's not bad.

I'm more in love with his potential. He's an athletic freak and is talented enough to literally play any position. I mean, he recorded a passing TD, rushing TD, receiving TD and coffin corner punt all in one game. Add to that a polarizing personality and an Econ major at good school, and it's easy to see why some believe he could be the best all around prospect to come out this season.

His first ever college snap was a 78-yard TD run. His second, third, and fourth games were all 300 yard performances, making him the first ever QB to do that for UCLA. His freshman year, he broke single season records for completions, passing yards and total offense, and after one season moved up to second on UCLA's all-time passing touchdown list.

And he hates the NCAA, calling them a "cartel".

I'd be thrilled to get him, which means it's not happening.

Mettenberger, welcome to Cleveland.

"To backup Hoyer" ????

You're really ready to go into another season with a "flash in the pan," underdog QB who is a "feel good" kind of guy (Frye, Quinn, Holcolm, McCoy)

He's played 2 games and he's almost 30 years old. He may have earned a chance to compete next year, but I'm ready to see a franchise guy get in there and play...

I personally want hoyer to get a fair shake and not just throw some kid who was SUPPOSED to be good in there because there was some hype. Let him compete, because I think he's the leader the browns have needed so goddamn badly. It ain't Campbell and it certainly isn't Weeden. And hype doesn't equal leadership. Look at bob griffen.

Then he should fit right in with the Browns

And while the Hoyer/Hundley plan sounds ideal to me, the Browns may have Carr fever. Manziel looked a little light in the arm to me yesterday and we don't have a very good track record with that in Cleveland winds so I may be stumbling and bumbling off that bandwagon.

Trading up in the draft hasn't worked for the Browns. Brady Quinn, Trent Richardson, Kellen Winslow

@richiswhere said:

I read some sarcasm here?

Yeah, just taking what falls to you at the most important position in team sports isn't widely held wisdom.

@usfbrown said:

I agree as well.

EXCEPT

I would advocate a slight trade up for Hundley, if need be and if the price is right.

@usfbrown said:

Yeah...that's how you do it!!!!

@usfbrown said:

I agree.

@lbc-mike said:

So we are down to only having Weeden. Are the Browns allowed to have an open tryout for the QB position this week? Come one, Come All!!! I will would be willing to give anyone at this point for a try. homeless guy holding the cardboard sign asking for money, all the guys who "coulda, shoulda" " I could've been,.......", our mascot, the guys who were never scouted, my grandfather, my gay sister, anyone but Weeden!!!!!

At lease give us a reason to watch!!

I hope you actually do have a gay sister or else this post isn't as funny.

that there should be two new qb's on the Browns roster, to back up

Hoyer.

Seriously. Even if they have to draft two, one early, one later.

Two new qbs who can freakin THINK on the field. dammit.
