hornbybrown Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 We have tons of cap space and with likely cuts will have more. We can afford to pay good money to get a good back up. I would be high on a bit of Fitzmagic and I can fully see him and Baker getting on with each other very well 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mind Character Posted January 3, 2019 Author Share Posted January 3, 2019 (edited) Updated the List by adding Nick Foles (not a realistic target for Browns), Mike Glennon, Brock Osweiler, and Sam Bradford (might retire) 12 hours ago, Mind Character said: The Following 14 QBs will be Unrestricted Free Agents Via Being Cut/Released or Based on Contract Necessitating UFA Status: Tier 1 1.) Nick Foles 2.) Joe Flacco 3.) Tyrod Taylor 4.) Ryan Tannehill 5.) Case Keenum 6.) Teddy Bridgewater 7.) Ryan Fitzpatrick Tier 2 8.) Trevor Siemian 9.) Blake Bortles 10.) Brett Hundley 11.) Robert Griffin III 12.) Mike Glennon 13.) Brock Osweiler 14.) Sam Bradford (Might Retire due to Knee issues at any time) Edited January 3, 2019 by Mind Character Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mind Character Posted January 3, 2019 Author Share Posted January 3, 2019 (edited) QB Pairing Predictions: 1.) Giants -- Teddy Bridgewater or Eli Manning via FA, as well as and Dwayne Haskins via Draft 2.) Washington -- Case Keenum 1-yr rental or Blake Bortles 1-yr rental until Alex Smith returns 3.) Broncos -- Nick Foles via FA and Drew Lock via Draft 4.) Jaguars -- Joe Flacco or Eli Manning via Acquisition and Daniel Jones via Draft 5.) Dolphins -- Tyrod Taylor via FA and Ryan Finley/Clayton Thorson via Draft ------------------------------------------ That would leave us to target Fitzpatrick, Siemian, or Hundley (drafted in the 5th round by the Packers; see Eliot Wolf presser on Hundley below) Edited January 3, 2019 by Mind Character Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candyman93 Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 I want Trace Mcsorely as a UDFA or late round pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reginaldm9 Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 Drew Stanton is 11-6 as a starter. I think you guys are just so used to attempting to scout QBs that you don't know what to do now that we have ZERO need for one. Case closed.

Spend less time scouting, and more time figuring out how to clone Baker. Because if he goes down, this team is ****ed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re going to be contenders we can’t afford to lose a game or 2 if baker goes out. We need a quality backup. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MistaBohmbastic Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 Brogan Roback was signed by the Squealers and now I suddenly don't feel so great about the future of the AFC North anymore... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This only indicates to me that Ben is retiring and Josh Dobbs is set to ascend to greatness just as VanS has predicted. Hope you enjoyed our run while it lasted. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope you enjoyed our run while it lasted. I enjoyed it much more in your Freddie Kitchens voice. Thanks for that. Next time though, try to include the word "scenario" into your phrasing. It really *pops* with that accent, as Baker had proven in his mic'd up vid against Cincy.

brooks1957 Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 Keep in mind we are talking about a BACKUP QB - i.e. - you hope he never plays. So here is a serviceable name that could offer stability to the position Matt Moore - formerly of the Dolphins. 35 years old with a nice amount of NFL success in his hip pocket. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both are flawed but competitive kids with lots of experience at big time programs. @LETSGOBROWNIES 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granted, he's had disappointing Jr. and Sr. seasons compared to what he did as a sophomore, but he's accurate on short passes/is a west coast kid because downfield he leaves a lot lacking. He's mentally very sharp and makes sound decisions with the football (albeit struggles under pressure and can get skittish). Honestly, he reminds me a bit of a stronger armed Cody Kessler/Kellen Moore. Like I said, I'd roll the dice with him as an UDFA/7th rounder. Don't get me wrong, if we pass on him, I don't really care, as I'm not in love with him, but I do like the fact that he's started close to 50 games and is very accurate in the short/intermediate game. In Freddy's system, he wouldn't be bad on a lot of those hitches, slants, corners, and outs...and IF he progresses (big if), I could see him as a Keenum type On 1/3/2019 at 11:29 AM, LETSGOBROWNIES said: Hard pass on Browning, he’s awful. Id like Seimian and Stanton for 2019 and when Stanton’s deal ends bring in a rookie to develop behind Baker on 2020. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
