Did a morning search on Browns news and found this, much to my dismay. I just see it as another Jake Delhomme situation. Meh!

Ya, it feels like Delhommo, he's 34 and coming off a terrible decline year.
But ... he's a two time Pro Bowler with experience in Shanny's offense.
He would compete with Hoyer to start (I think Hoyer beats him out) ... which means we would roll the dice on #4 QB, but instead grab a Sammy Watkins and hanve a veteran passer throwing to Watkins, Gordon, Cameron. That doesn't sound bad. The QB will come ... let's get competitive again for chrissakes.

Schaub is a “serious possibility” for the Browns

The Factory of Sadness seems to be planning another stellar product line for 2014; perhaps they’ll dub it the “Pick 6.”
With quarterback a clear need and new offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan having a prior relationship with Texans quarterback Matt Schaub, Schaub could become the next quarterback to join the Browns.
Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com reports that Schaub is a “serious possibility” for the Browns.
Schaub had some strong years with Shanahan, but based on a horrible 2013 season Schaub seems to be broken beyond repair. For that reason, he wouldn’t be handed the job in Cleveland. He’d have to compete with Brian Hoyer, who’s recovering from a torn ACL.
Currently the property of the Texans, Schaub isn’t available unless and until he’s released. With a cap number north of $14 million, that’s likely to happen, barring a pay cut so big that Ike Taylor would say, “Damn, that guy took a big pay cut.”
The Texans could create $10 million in cap space (as of June 1) by cutting Schaub with the post-June 1 designation. The team would carry $3.5 million in dead money for 2014 before absorbing a $7 million cap charge in 2015.
It’s unclear whether acquiring Schaub would take the Browns out of play for a first-round quarterback. Much of it depends on how much they pay Schaub. The less he gets, the more likely that the Browns are hoping to throw other teams off the scent of the possibility that the team will use the No. 4 pick in round one on a quarterback.
-
How many times can the Browns bring in past their prime QB's before they learn the lesson? If Schaub is brought in and is made the starter we might as well start looking at 2015 top prospects.
-
Schaub comes up here for the same reason that Cousins and Grossman do: because he has a history, somewhat successful with the Shanahan's. I assume that includes Kyle.
I guess it could happen....if the Browns brass decides that this in NOT the year that a franchise QB can be obtained in the draft.
Maybe the Browns really do think all these QBs in the draft are overrated, and that a veteran like Schaub could be a better answer for now....and to wait for that QB while the rest of the team is built up.

this is all bullshit.

Hahaha... You should post this response in every thread.
I'm not a Schaub guy either. But if Weeden is out and Schaub is in, it MAY be a marginal improvement?
it would be a big step up. i think he makes reads pretty well. it's just the dumb throw gene that weeden and schaub share that is impossible to shake. how many QBs are we going to have on our roster? this means we'd cut campbell who we still owe money too correct? we know weeden is still going to get paid from us.
hoyer schaub weeden and a third rounder like fales? or don't pick a QB at all?
now i'm really fucking confused.....
bullshit!
-
I would rather get Josh McCown for a year ....have him compete with Hoyer and a drafted QB if we get one .....

Regardless of what seems the plan, I'm betting Pettine and Farmer know exactly what they will do at QB.

Farmer has said as much already.
If they do pick up Schaub, then yeah I'm hoping that's a sign they know they don't want a QB from this year's draft. Perhaps with some of the curious (but not necessarily bad IMO) FA signings popping up in the last day or so, this all points to trading up in the draft to get a choice pick in 2015 for a QB?

Re: "curious' signings
Speed, speed, speed!

i wouldn't mind that at all. but pettine and farmer also know the game when it comes to the draft......blowin smoke.
BUT if we do sign schaub, it's (IMO) a sign they're going to cut weeds and campbell and draft a QB in the 2nd or 3rd round. i really doubt they'd sign shaub and have hoyer and pick a QB @ 4 in this draft.

Assuming Hoyer is the #1 QB, having experience for competing and NOT losing games (in the event of an injury) is imperative. Newb/s will need a season to season.

Hahaha, some "blowin' smoke" is a way safe bet.

If this rumor is true and they do get Schaub this will surely mean we go into 2014/15 with Hoyer/Schaub and a developmental QB in the 3rd to 7th round ...... our 2 first rounders and 2nd rounder will be used elsewhere .....
And if we get Edelman and Shields the slot receiver and shut down 2nd corner position is done....we can use the early picks in the draft to get Watkins a RB and someone for the right side of the O Line
I'm ok with that. No matter what I want to see Hoyer get his shot. If its because Im a hometown mark so be it.hometown

I am not totally convinced that Edelman is not just a creation of the genius of Tom Brady and the New England loving media. And I think we can pretty much say that he will have no Tom Brady throwing to him here.
