The Browns just signed Jake Delhomme today after trading for Seneca Wallace earlier in the week, meaning that Brady Quinn will probably be traded. The obvious destination is KC because of Charlie Weis.
I don't think I really like the idea. We already have a lot of money invested in Cassel, and I feel like Croyle is a better quarterback than Quinn. It would likely cost us a 3rd or 4th round pick also.
What do you guys think?

I don't understand where all the QB trade/draft rumors are coming from. When Pioli signed Cassel to a 60 million dollar contract in his first year as GM, i figured that would put to rest all the QB talk? Its the pieces around the QB that need work.
aside from the QB, Charles, Albert, maybe Waters and Bowe are really the only things on offense worth keeping. Which means Cassel isn't getting a lot of help. Quinn sucks too! why would anyone want him as their QB? Much less trade for him lol...
I do think your right about Pioli taking a flyer on a late round QB, like he always does. He seems to do a good job of landing LBs and QB's late in the draft, and i expect him to try and do so this year as well. Cassel, Croyle, Guit, and a late draft pick to battle out for no.3 or no.4 QB....
I heard Marshall Faulk on NFL network say Pioli is trying to win now, and last season was just a practice run. So he is done drafting core lineman types early, and now is looking to add playmakers. But what does Marshall Faulk know anyways lol...i hope he is right though!
Cassel will start next year and if he produces will keep starting. But there's never a problem with adding quality depth at any position, especially if we can obtain that depth inexpensively. Although, I would rather see us pick him up after he's released.

I dont think we will be trading for him...hes probably going ot get cut. Nobody wants to take on his contract

Cassel is nothing more than a $40 mil 2 year stop gap. Pioli did it like that so when he got who he wanted in here to coach, they could get their own guy. Cassel has already been paid for basically, so if you think those numbers, or the fact that Pioli traded for him is going to stop our coaches (not our GM because he doesnt coach) from getting the guy that THEY want, your crazy.
oh wait. I must not be a KC fan

trade just not happening and the browns will not cut him they cant count on dilfer and i wouldnt be suprised if he is the browns starter after preseason
Quinn's contract is peanuts. All the money is tied up in escalators. His salary for 2010 is around $750,000. It can jump to nearly 6 million if he taks 70% of the snaps. He would be very cheap for a 1st round talent.

Im with this guy. I dont see us trading for him, but if hes cut, why the hell not? He would be a cheap sign, and is only 25. If he develops we got a young quality quarterback for cheap, and if not, it wouldnt cost us to much. I think he have a better chance at being a starting quarterback than Matt Gutierrez, and he is the same age as Quinn.
And who better to develop Quinn than Weis?!

signing him after he gets cut is a lot different than making a trade for him, and giving away picks... (the OP has title stating he thinks we could end up making a trade for quinn...) ofcourse if he is released i would be all for signing him, why wouldn't you be?
