I voted Cleveland bc I think Quinn is a bum.

Id love for this to be around next year. I have no idea what to think of Delhomme. At his $7million price tag It would have been cheaper to keep Quinn and Fraley, and still have a couple million $.

If Quinn cant even beat out Orton, then Cleveland hands down.

Its also nice to not have to need to draft a RB this year with all the other needs.

How could anyone think that Denver made out in that trade? We got rid of a qb that had no chance of even being even mediocre here. He wasn't worth a ham sammich to us and we got a rb and 2 picks.

I voted Denver because I want to believe Quinn will be great in other surroundings.

Okay, I really just want their 3rd rounder in 2012.

I will say this ... the odds are not good for Quinn. Take a look at former 1st round QBs who get cut or traded by their deafting team before they even hit free agency. The list is long, and impressive only in the scope of wasted draft picks spent.

Akili Smith
Tim Couch
Cade McNown
Heath Shuler
Dave Brown
Jim Druckenmiller
Rick Mirer (even after making rookie of the year, IIRC)
David Klingler
Todd Marinovich
Dan McGwire
Andre Ware
Kyke Boller
Patrick Ramsey
Joey Harrington
David Carr



That's off the top of my head ......

Quinn would need to buck quite a trend for teams giving up on a 1st round QB quickly in order to succeed.

Its no secret that I knew that Quinn was a bum from the start......and I love sandwiches.

I wish there was a third choice.. That being that it's too soon to rate.

Who knows, maybe McDaniels can make Quinn something special. He did pretty well with Matt Cassel..

And while Hillis looks good to us, he may not be when we get down to it....

Time will tell

Exactly. Too often we want to rate the winners and loser right away. ESPN was asking who won the McNabb and Brandon Marshall trades like 3 minutes after they happened. It could go either way depending on how those two play and what the other teams get in the draft (which is still 1 week away).

jeez....rush, rush, rush.
