May happen. I was hoping he would be the backup to McNabb and be gone at the end of the year.

I would love to see McNabb come here...but it's not happening. Hate to say it, but Andy Reid can't get over McNabb...he can't live without him it seems like. I'm just wondering what other options at QB Cleveland has left besides the QB's they have now and the one's available in the draft. Or who else they could try to sign who still has some value

Here's an interesting link talking about the Browns and the draft. Kind of a weird take on it, but I do think that former Ohio University WR Taylor Price is going to be a really nice grab for someone in this year's draft. Has nice size and speed, and could contribute well on both offense, and the return game.

Disagree. he was a a solid blocker, receiver and leader. His role was diminishing but I think he was an all around solid TE

I always liked Steve Heiden and what he brought to the team when healthy.

Yeah, I liked Heiden a lot. He had problems staying healthy, but he was a good all around TE.

I liked Heiden but always wished he had eyebrows. He looked odd as hell.

I don't get the high maintnance either. Everything I've seen on him is very positive. If he is there at 7, he's a Brown.

But the article is correct in that they do have serious depth issues in the defensive backfield.

Anymore, all these sites have pretty crappy writers.....The Browns beat writer, whatever her name is, is a joke as well.

beat me to it.....

Jake may be lacking in his old age but he'll be good in the locker room and he is going to be able to make some throws....hopefully they all aren't to the wrong team.

Looks like what I heard came true? Delhomme to Cleveland. Anyone find an earlier post saying Jake was coming to Cle?

Justin Fargas also left without a contract and Ben Watson has fallen off the face of the planet.

At least someone who actually follows a team as a beat writer has the potential for inside information. Some yahoo like you or me who simply writes an opinion piece on the NFL isn't exactly what I'd call credible.

Im just a doofus on sports, but even i had heard Delhomme was signing with Cleveland. Scroll up as you wish, no one posted it before I did.
