Jake Delhomme is supposed to meet with the Browns tomorrow.. Good sign that Brady Quin will be gone if they can get anything for him

 
WHY?

Very difficult to a Brownies fan these days.......... :)

He's not the worst backup you could have, but this move indicates to me that Holmgren wants to completely revamp the QB position in Cleveland with his own guys. Quinn could be out the door by the end of the week if they can find a trade partner.

Who is he going to back up? If Quinn is gone, you have to think they are looking at Delhomme as the starter.

He is the worst backup you can have. Hands down. Jake has lost the mental and physical aspect of the game. At this point if your #1 went down it would be more beneficial to your team and franchise to put in a rookie or your developmental QB. Jake brings you nothing, absolutely nothing to the table during a game.Edit to say: HOLY CRAP are they really considering signing him as their #1. No friggin way.

Finally we're shipping our trash to Clevland rather than vice versa. You want Jeff Davidson back too?

 
Oh god, please no....
:shrug: Just when I thought it couldn't get any worse, they start talking to Delhomme......ugh :bag:
The 49ers not only talked to Carr they signed him :doh: I guess Carr's probably a little better than Delhomme right now but Carr will be the backup unless Smith completely falls apart( please please I hope not :( ) So if Delhomme ends up being the Browns starter could be a long year.
 
I would take Carr over Delhomme anyday. Just my opinion of course.

Houston destroyed any chance for Carr to be successful. I wouldn't be at all shocked if he won the starting job and took SF to the playoffs this season.

 
Delhomme Taking a Physical For The Browns

Cleveland - Jake Delhomme, former Carolina Panthers quarterback, is in town meeting with the Browns about playing for them in 2010. However, he may not leave without signing a deal after telling 19 Action News sports reporter Mark Schwab he couldn't talk because he's "going to take a physical."

This doesn't guarantee he'll be a Brown this season, but it does mean the Browns are interested in his services. According to NFL.com's Jason La Canfora, Delhomme has scheduled a visit with New Orleans on Friday and Saturday.

If we go into the 2010 season with Delhomme, Wallace, and Ratliff our QB's I'm going to switch my schedule to ensure I work Sunday's.

 
Jake The Mistake is a bit harsh. I actually hoped the Titans would sign him.

Jake played Pro Bowl football for a few years and almost won a Super Bowl. He's a leader.

He just lost his swing the last couple years. Steve Smith #####in' in the huddle didn't help. Delhomme needs a change of scenery.

I wish the Titans had inquired. We're stuck with Vince Young b/c of a senile, infatuated owner who insists VY is the answer. He's not. He can't lead.

Jake can lead. I hope he makes a huge comeback with Cleveland and I hope the fans embrace him.

He's going to be a 'good' backup QB, ala Mark Brunell. I can't think of too many competent backup QBs in the league. Sorgi just signed with the NYG...Painter is Peyton's backup.

Steve Smith was one of Delhomme's biggest supporters.
:thumbup: Smith tried to keep the team fired up in the huddle. Jake and Steve are close on and off the field, and Smith always had Jake's back when Jake would have a terrible game.
 
Offer from Clev 5 years at $6M a year and compete as a starter....according to NFL Network Total Access.

NO discussion as backup money for 2 yrs in his hometown area....

$$ or Hometown..... which way will he go?

Like all of the Browns moves this offseason except this one :wall:

God I wonder how much $$$ we're forking over for this guy. I'm sure he's being paid to start.

I'm afraid to ask CAR homers to chime in on this...

:wall: I guess it doesn't matter, though. In 2009, the passing game was terrible and they only won when they ran the ball 80% of the time anyhow. Even that crew could hand it off 50 times I think.

Adam_Schefter For those wondering about Brady Quinn's future in Cleveland, consider: Browns paying Jake Delhomme starter money -- $7 million this season.
:mellow:

Unbelievable! What in the world is Holmgren thinking?
 
Not sure why CLE fans are so upset. Was Seneca Wallace the savior or something?

You're rebuilding. Delhomme is a seat-warmer for, well, something.

 
Local TV report said 2 year deal. No $$$ details.
Adam Schefter is reporting (via Twitter):For those wondering about Brady Quinn's future in Cleveland, consider: Browns paying Jake Delhomme starter money -- $7 million this season.

Do you have a couple of days free?
Point taken.
I for one think Brady is better than Jake. Silly me.
:goodposting:While I'm not a Brady Quinn enthusiast, Jake is horrible.......and Wallace is nothing to be excited about. The only thing that made Jake look serviceable was Steve Smith. What offensive firepower does Cleveland have again?
