Re: Is Brady Quinn Being Selfish By Holding Out?

Let's say Brady Quinn thinks he's going to start for a long time. Jason Campbell's starting for a long time for us, he was drafted 25th. He's getting $8 million over 5 years with a signing bonus of less than $1 million.

Aaron Rodgers didn't get much more than that. Explain to me what leg Quinn has to stand on if he's trying to ask for much more than that?

You can think you're a starter and a franchise QB all you want, but the market is what guides your value. The Browns have no reason to rush Quinn into action in his rookie season; it's not like he's going to be their savior this year. The Browns have all the leverage here, and Quinn's grasping at straws.

Quinn has no legs to stand on but that shouldn't preclude him and his agent from trying. If I was the owner I would tell him to go suck a d*ck! Plain, simple and to the point, though crude.
