Unless they do end up with a deal with the Pats or Washington they need a vet QB and they have one with Brock. None available on the open market are better and honestly even the ones who signed with other teams weren't much better if at all.
I actually feel better with this team starting the season with Brock/Kessler and a rookie than McCown/RG and a rookie.
Brock has a winning record both with the Broncos and the Texans and won a playoff game. What transpired in Houston I have no idea other than Houston overpaying for a successful backup.

If they are using analytics then there is no way in hell they are giving the Patriots two 1st rounders for Jimmy.

I'm hoping this Jimmy crap just goes away unless they can get him for a 2018 second round pick. Move up from 33 if even needed for Mahomes and don't let him play other than preseason games. From everything I've read he seems to have the best chance at a good NFL career but is not ready to start right now.

Anything more than house money (ie. picks from other teams) the Browns front office is unwilling to pay.

I still think there's a strong possibility that Tom Brady told the Pats he wants one more title and he will retire. So they made a splash getting Cooks, Gilmore, Allen & resigned Hightower. Jimmy gets paid after the year.
I think the Browns getting that 2nd round pick had nothing to do with a trade they had worked out. They just had a ton of cap space and figured they could take it on to get a draft pick back. Worse case they got their QB for 2017 on top of it.

Fuck it. I'm ready to face the Brock/Kessler era until they find the QB we need. I know it's not going to happen but it would be a dream come true if Brock ended up being that QB.

Well when Hue was asked at the owners meeting if Brock would be a Brown. Hue's answer, I don't know.

A few other worthy notes from the last day or so:
The Browns are likely going to get new uniforms again in 2020 The Browns will not be on Hard Knocks this year Hue said they will not trade the 1st pick in the draft

They better not trade the #1 pick but with Hue saying that it's probably up for negotiation.

I saw that earlier. Kid is a force. He doesn't have to put up big stats to disrupt an offense.

Now MKC and Pat McManamon are saying Hue said they wouldn't trade #1 for a quarterback.

He said he would like to not trade it as there are good players there but would listen to calls.

Either way it's smoke and mirrors until draft day.

MKC's dislike of Garrett has sold me on him.

He wouldn't discuss trades with other players. As many times as those dumb fucks kept asking, he can't talk about players on other teams.

They cut the first video short of the trade question but it is discussed in the second
