Not surprised he was moved.

So he was moved for a FB, and two mid/late rounders.

Not too bad.

GL to Brady Quinn. I think he can do well if surrounded by better players. Im just not sure Denver has better players.

I'm glad we got ANYONE who can contribute for Quinn. Since when did he ever contribute for us? Mr Quinn king of the 3 yard pass.

Quinn and Anderson just didnt cut it. I would start Wallace or Delhomme over either.

Also, whats this making out party with Troy Smith all about? He has done nothing in the NFL, yet gets compared to people who actually has? Cmon guys.. earn your dues!

Funny that Quinn who was supposedly going to be the franchise QB for the Browns is now traded for a FB and a sixth Rd pick.

Hopefully they can start drafting better.

You can say this about every franchise. "Funny how Cade Mcknown, Ryan Leaf, Akili Smith, Matt Leinart, Alex Smith, David Carr, Erik Klingler, Dave Brown, Tommy Maddux, Rick Mirer, Heath Shuler, Trent Dilfer #6 pick, Jim Druckenmiller, etc.."

Yeah but it isn't an annual thing for most teams.

And Leinart, Carr, Maddox, and Dilfer at least got in more than the 6 games or so that Quinn did.

That's more than what I thought they could get out of him. Holmgren is really cleaning house (that's a good thing)

I thought it was just one 6th round pick...not two?

ESPN said a 6th round pick in 2011 and a conditional pick is 2012.

Wow. Not sure I am that angry with the move, but not sure I get it either. We now have 0 QB on this team with an upside. At least Quinn had a far fetched possibility to do good. Oh well, Quinn threw some terrible passes last year and never looked comfortable. Dunno what we're gonna do with Hillis cept maybe a 3rd down type back.

Hillis will probably play some Special teams, or maybe be in a Wildcat package or two.

I see the Browns taking a QB in the draft this year.

Where do you get 6th round picks? It says 2 conditional picks.

Wallace still has an upside...he's never been given a great opportunity, and he's still relatively young for a QB

That's a serious stretch man.

Wallace is inevitably nothing more than a backup QB.

I hope they wait until next year to draft a QB, but I doubt it. This draft is just too weak to take a risk at QB. Let's focus on defense...

And they better not get a QB in the draft this year, the offense still isn't good enough yet to place a young QB in there and the defense still needs so much work, and this year's draft is definitely the year to address those defensive needs.

There was really no value out there for Quinn, so I don't know what to think of this trade.
