i_am_the_swammi 36 Posted April 28, 2007 If, for some reason, he's still there at #26, the Eagles would have to think long and hard. McNabb, has another 2-3 years of his prime (assuming he can somehow remain injury-free)....many here are wondering just when the Eagles will begin their search for the heir apparent. Quinn is a smart Notre-Damer....Andy Reid could do some good things with Quinn in grooming him to take over for McNabb in 2-3 years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Def. 952 Posted April 28, 2007 You skipped the blunder of sending the Eagles a 2nd round draft pick for AJ Feely, who the Eagles re-signed just two years later after the Phins cut him Stop while I'm down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Swampnuts 0 Posted April 28, 2007 How'd you like to be Brady Quinn's parents right now? I feel bad for this kid, but he's handling himself with class. Hopefully that blondie slipped him into the restroom to "de-stress". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TripleW64 12 Posted April 28, 2007 I'll be shocked if the Chiefs don't pick him up. +1 I think that would be a gift to KC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Duchess Jack 14 Posted April 28, 2007 Nice job by the Browns. Much better than some other teams I saw him going to (praying he would not land on the pats). Robbed from my sadsack franchise and signed by yours. Hopefully, he'll pan out for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
piratesownninjas 32 Posted April 28, 2007 If you would have told me that the Browns would have Quinn and Thomas after the first round, I would have thought they would have traded off there entire draft next year and Braylon Edwards. Could Cleveland have finally figured it out? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
detlef 127 Posted April 28, 2007 and he does go to cleveland ...cant beleive how many teams passed up on him Why? Is the guy such a "can't miss?" Frankly, I'm amazed at how many QBs get taken high. They're easily the hardest position to evaluate. Take a quick look at last year's leading passers (rating) only 1/3 of the top 15 were high first round picks and only 6 of those 15 were even 1st rounders. If I've got a high pick, I want it to count and it's a whole lot less that can go wrong when you've got some freak of nature D-lineman sitting right there. Remember what a steal GB got with Rogers?

crispirons 0 Posted April 28, 2007 how many millions did quinn lose by dropping from a supposed top 5 pick to number 22?? i have to think its substantial. its gotta suck when you have no control over what people are doing but are losing millions in the process. do i feel sorry for him, no. just commenting on his loss of income and not having any thing you can do about it.

Agreed that Quinn is far from a "can't miss" guy, but a good QB is inherently more valuable than a "freak of nature D-lineman". Just ask Bears and Ravens fans.

MikesVikes 145 Posted April 28, 2007 (edited) The trophy blonde raises character questions. Is this the blonde that the whole world is talking about today? Lol another site picked this up. Edited April 28, 2007 by MikesVikes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Randall 35 Posted April 28, 2007 (edited) At the price of this years 2nd and next years 1st. Good trade but cost them. I think that's too much for him. His agent will say Kiper had him the #1 pick last year so he deserves #1 money. Edited April 28, 2007 by Randall Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Perchoutofwater 15 Posted April 28, 2007 I love the trade from the Cowboys perspective. They wanted a CB, but the CB's that they really wanted were gone. They can still get an impact WR with the Browns 2nd this year, and can probably get the top corner in the draft next year with the Browns 2008 1st. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
