Rent him for one year. He still has some gas left in the tank and he would show Thomas how a pro wide receiver trains.

Plus he has vendettas for Philly and Dallas, I could live with him for 1 year.

T.O may get worked up about the #81 being unofficially retired. After all, didn't Lee Evans or whoever it was gave up #81 to him when he went to Buffalo?

I on the other hand have a bit more faith in Shanahan and doubt we end up anywhere close to the 4-12 season and no where near the top 5 in next years draft. Which means we will have a mediocre QB whether we keep JC or not, Colt, and some aged Vet you guys are wanting. Yeah good idea.

Basically here's the problem, there are a lot more talented OL on the board vs. QB's. There are a lot more OL that could easily be starting almost half way through the draft list of OL. But only about 3 QB's would be worth starting either this year or next. Most would have to be heavily coached up with the intention of being utilized in about 3-4 years. JC will be gone next year. I think he's tired of the BS, plus the owner is tired of the mediocre performance. So we can draft a top notch QB this year, pick up a bunch of OL, and throw the QB on the field next year after he's had a year of learning or we can forgo the position to pick up OL this year when they have the deepest OL draft and pick up a mediocre QB next year since we will be farther down the board and throw him to the fire under an awsome OL. My opinion I'd rather have the QB learning for a year and ready to step in next year when JC leaves, thats if he doesn't get picked up by someone this year.

Calm down Vinny. I'm not even bothering reading your stuff anymore, so save it.

I can't believe you took me serious.

It would get us a couple more Buck and Aikman games...

He may be the only one who does.

I remember that also. A nice mix of drafting and FA acquisitions can do the trick in a cap free year. I liked his answer for the sole reason in that it seems like the guy has a clear cut plan on turning this thing around.

See, even your computer is not agreeing with your suggestions.

I didn't, just playing along. This is fun. Only an imbecile would want Shuler back. I couldn't beleive you could even joke about bringing Shuler back.

But this is what we talked about a couple of weeks ago. That there would be major changes to the current roster. Shanahan and Allen have no loyalties to anyone on the roster and they've never been afraid to make changes

And there's more to come. Skins seem really intent on shipping Rocky and Campbell out ideally by this weekend (regardless of what they're saying).

Lots of Browns rumors floating around. Some good, some not so good. Depending on your perspective I suppose.

Quinn? Any chance of the Cooley rumor resurfacing?

Not with the Bear's unsuccessful bid to trade Greg Olsen.
