Who wants Brady Quinn in purple?

The Browns appear to be closing in on a three-year contract extension with QB Derek Anderson, who had a very nice season with Cleveland and almost led the squad to the playoffs. From the Cleveland Plain Dealer:

Browns General Manager Phil Savage said Tuesday he’s optimistic the Browns will sign quarterback Derek Anderson to a three-year deal before he becomes a restricted free agent on Feb. 28. “Talks have been a little more frequent in recent days,” Savage said in an e-mail response. “It seems that the three-year deal is becoming more the focus. We’ve had pretty good dialogue and will continue over the [NFL scouting] combine.”

We can’t imagine the Browns are going to eat up a ton of cap space with both Anderson and Brady Quinn (and the mystery hand). So the questions become: Should Cleveland trade him, and would you like to see the Vikings make a run at him?

Not a chance. Why would we want him and that contract? T-Jack is coming into his 3rd year. Look at this TD/INT ratio for to somewhat well known QBs in their first 3 years in order.
Favre: 18/13, 19/24, 33/14
Manning: 26/22, 26/14, 33/20
All 4 Bears QBs in the last 3 years: 11/15, 24/22, 18/21 (not directed at any particular chicago sports fan or anything…)

Give T-Jax one more year and then dump him if needed. Grossman and Donte are free agents…we could get either one of them of $50 and a ham sandwitch.

Not only the mystery hand but it’s placement and angle…..

Who’s the guy with his hand on the football? What’s going on in that room?

Girls of Randball, I ask you - how much does it cost a guy to get his chest waxed?

Cleveland won’t trade him. And as soon as I said that Rick Speilman picked up the phone.

and another question, Ramon, why are so many guys waxing ? Is is like getting a Brazilian where a partner thinks they are once again making it in high school ?
