    I like Kessler, but this "competition" hasn't exactly brought the best our of him, and lets be honest, he's the Josh Tomlin of the Browns QBs. Always prepared, will give a professional attempt any time he's called on, but limited physically. Plus, his tendency to hold onto the ball too long and not being the stoutest built QB of all-time makes you wonder how long he'd be healthy enough to start for an extended time.

    Am not counting Kess out of this thing at this time. but as most, we see more QB hope in Kizer..imo Kess at Camp took a Gregg Williams hit by Gregg taking away all of Kess's short center of Field release valves. Probably took away his center seam routes that Kess can throw to force the kid to grow his field vision..If Kessler turns his tunnel vision around? he may want to give a nod to Williams

    Listened to an extended discussion on this very topic on NFL Network. Definitely making him improve.

  • Good points gumby. Same point has been made for JT helping MG improve his DE responsibilities. It's great to have one of the greatest to ever wear a Browns uniform right there opposite to make something special out of raw talent. Also great to have a DC improve the QB's at the same time he improves our team D coordination. I love this team's approach to making this team into something special.

    Cut him. He's trash. No accuracy what so ever

    Brock- I agree about the accuracy thing. rewatched most of the first half, and when the passes weren't uncatachable, they were high- hanging out his receivers for kill shots.  Did throw a few on target, but not enough in my book. Have no idea how he went 6\8.  

  • So at this point why not a conditional trade whereby if he is still on the roster of the team taking him, say after game 6, then we get a 6th or 7th rounder for him in 2018?

  • I don't think we are in a hurry, Ag. We're going to eat his salary, that seems clear, so the objective will be to maximize his value and he is a veteran QB with over a seasons worth of starts under his belt.

    This is it exactly. Even if we don't get any takers, although a well below average player Brock isn't a bad guy to have around for the 3rd string QB. Hogan can still go to the PS at this point so we don't lose anyone. I think he's more valuable to our team than say a 6th/7th round pick which is all we'd get for the guy at this point in time.

    However, if a high level QB goes down and Brock gets thrown around in the conversation of 3rd round or player who could contribute...
