Erie Dawg Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 Is there any media resource that this board agrees with? Lol. Everyone seems to hate the Cleveland media but there were others on here that treated them like Pulitzer prize winning journalist when they were reporting the Lombardi hire and jim nantz comments....

Hunt Daddy Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 I don't know why, but I just got a feeling this is going to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comeonman Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 I think something will happen. Most people I'm sure felt like me when Weeden was drafted. It was a bad pick, and we probably will just have to let it go to waste. Don't think it will be mallet, but it will be someone else. It's a quarterback driven league, how many times do we hear that. The thing is IT IS TRUE. We will not be a playoff team until we have a solid quarterback. Who made the playoffs this year with a shit quarterback?

tampadawgs Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 OK here is the list of QBs who could be our QB next year... 1. Ryan Mallet- Big arm, behinf Brady for 2 years. Pats want at least a 3rd rounder or better....Really Doubt he becomes a Brown 2. Matt Fylnn- After Seattle payed big bucks for him, he got beat by Wilson for the starting job. Seattle will not pay 8M for a back-up he will be traded or out right released. Fylnn is what the Browns want a strong armed QB who throws the ball downfield 3. Mike Vick- Really do think he re-signs with Philly now that Kelly is there 4. Brandon Weeden- We already know what he is about 5. Colt Mccoy- 6. Alex Smith- Dude was really bad before Harbaugh got there. Really think the Jags will OVERPAY for him. I like Weeden, but would not be upset with Fylnn or Mallet. I really did like Mallet coming out of Ark. I really do think they Weeden can be a great QB..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really do think they Weeden can be a great QB..... That's just not even accurate. Matt Flynn is known for NOT having a big arm,known as a west coast offense qb, and isnt good throwing the deep ball. He is very similar to McCoy actually.

blitzz2 Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 Ryan Mallet? Who is to say he will be any better than what Weeden offers us? they guy has started what 4 games? and completed 1 pass? LOL. At least we got to see what Weeden brought to the table under an inept coach. His numbers weren't off the charts, but were Peytons in his 1st year? I would rather save a pick, or whatever Cleveland might want to give up to bring a QB that has sat behind Brady, and a offense that probably will be considerably different to what they run over there in NE. Sorry not on the Mullet band wagon, unproven commodity. We all saw how Cassel worked out with almost a season starting for NE. Why go down that same road.

Canton Mike Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 To me, even if we HAD to change QBs now (we DON'T know whether or not we do), there seems to be a simple question here..... Given Brady's advanced age & Mallett's youth, WHY would Belichek let him go IF he's the "heir apparent"? MANY red flags here. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flyin J Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 Mallett may not want to sit behind Brady for another three years so it makes sense to deal him now to load up for a final run with Brady. Mallett only has one year left on his deal and wont sign back to be a backup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erie Dawg Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 Not sure why this has 3 pages. He is not worth the 6th overall pick period. unless haslam wants lynched by a mob before the begining of the season this isnt going to happen. I cant see haslam and banner making stupid moves like this,I think banner and haslam knows you make moves to move forward not sideways or backwards.

Flyin J Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 He has more upside than Weeden, and as I stated earlier, if Banner and Lombardi feel like hes worth a 3rd and a conditional next year or a 3rd and Rubin I wouldnt mind it.

ClevelandFanForLife Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 Not sure why this has 3 pages. He is not worth the 6th overall pick period. Meh depends on what we can get. I would give up the sixth overall pick for Mallett... Along with every one of New England's picks over the next 3 drafts. Nothing less though.

BB could try to use Lombardi as his lap dog to dump his dregs off on us so that he could pick up multiple draft picks. He has done this before.

Erie Dawg Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 He has more upside than Weeden Oh yeah please elaborate. with a total of 4 passes and 1 int you can tell all that? I wonder if he still likes the white stuff, maybe we can spring on a couple 8 balls for a signing bonus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if he still likes the white stuff, maybe we can spring on a couple 8 balls for a signing bonus. Well hes 5 years younger for 1. Mallett has had two years learning from the best in the game for 2. If we do trade for him, I would assume that Lombardi and his buddy Belichek had honest conversations about him long before Lombardi even thought hed work in the NFL again. Weedens biggest weakness's are the hardest ones to correct. Im not for bringing in Mallett but I will defend the idea of it, because I liked him coming out of Arkansas and think he can be great. We'll see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

choco Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 Umm....colt and quinn are also younger. Means nothing. Matt cassel....remember him? Who'd he learn under? Lets not get into the coke habit for now....nothing youve suggested is performance related....merely intangible speculation. Weeden has more staering experience, and rapport with current players. Yet, giving up resources for an unknown is logical to you. Aye.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Mountain State Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 Pats fan here, I'm hesitant about trading Mallet. I think in five years he will be the best QB in the NFL, I don't think BB will let him go even for the #6 pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horn of Lake Erie Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 Like said before, the whole notion that backup QBs behind HOF QBs create HOF QBs is completely mythified. Look at Cassel, Flynn, etc.... Weeden is our best option at this point, and with the new, pro-field spreading offense Weeden can either show that he's worthy or a bust.

Give me one decent QB tutored under brady that hasnt sucked? Give me one quarteback that had all the tools that tutored under Brady. Just because some undrafted guys and some 6th and 7th round picks didnt go on to light the world on fire says nothing about Mallett. He got caught with coke one time when he was 21, and didnt even go to rehab. That was a red flag a draft time, not 3 years and no more incidents later.

No. For one reason, Brady has 3 years of football left in him and Mallett is going into the last year of his deal. Meaning if BB doesnt get something out of him now he loses him for nothing.

Meaning if BB doesnt get something out of him now he loses him for nothing. or they extend his contract. i agree with your thoughts about mallet. but i also agree we can't afford to be giving anything away this coming draft. if belichick is dangling the kid out there to be traded then we should take a look. if not give weeds another year, if weeden sucks azz again, then pick him up when he walks from NE. with all the teams that need QBs, i doubt if he makes it past draft day w/o being traded. hell you got people looking at jamarcus russell. then again maybe mallet is comfortable holding a clip board?

Tim Couch Pulls Out Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 Ryan Mallet is a dumpster-water redneck. He doesn't deserve a second of thought, much less multiple pages of a thread.

Not really sure what makes him a redneck either, was it where he played college ball? Hes originally from Texas, the same state 9 out of 32 NFL starters are from. Im really intrigued by him, and think he has a really good shot of being a good QB in this league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
