    I still don't see how they give up on Colt so fast, the guy had what to work with for a WR? If they somehow could get Justin Blackman for him to throw too, that would be a huge improvement. Get this kid some help, he isn't that bad. I think Colt is far better then Kolb.

    Saying the same thing for weeks now Yeah Dude, no reason to give up on Colt yet.

    Colt will get one more year, but I wouldn't be surprised if they draft a QB late.

    The Browns have a few holes but I can't see any QB succeeding with those Wide outs. Their TE's are the best Wide Outs on that team.

    They say it takes 3 years to be comfortable in the west coast offense. McCoy barely got 3 weeks with the coaching staff with the non-existent off-season.
    And, their kick returner is their best WR right now.

    Eh, I'll disagree if Little can improve. He'll never be a superstar but if he gets the drops under control, he has potential to be a very solid receiver, especially in the WCO where he can get in space and be physical.

    Yeah, I like Little. He'll get better. Wide receivers used to get 3 years too.

    I'm a huge McCoy fan. Loved him since college. Would be a shame for them to ditch him without ever giving him a real chance to succeed.

    It's good to see people are talking about Colt McCoy.

    Colt and Little need to get an offseason together and get a number one WR. I am sure that Colt could be successful in this league he just needs pieces.

    we have known flynn was the consolation prize for a while. however, there really doesn't seem to be a lot of excitement from the teams about this guy. i'm beginning to wonder if the league feels he's the next kolb instead of being the next schaub.

    I don't think you can say that. I'm not a fan, but we don't really know what Kolb is. He came to a new team, into a new offense in a shortened preseason...I don't think it's a good "read" on what he's going to be yet.

    if kolb had been a rookie last year and that's all we knew about him, then i would agree. however, that was not his first rodeo and he looked just as lost, confused, and indecisive in the eagles offense, in which he played for many years.

    The guy is getting ready to turn 28 years old and has not improved on his ability to read defenses and make decisions.

    Don't get me wrong. He's not CFL or AFL quality. He is a legit #2 nfl QB and if that's what you turned to when your starter went down, it wouldn't be the worst thing in the world.

    But, to expect him to magically become starter quality and pay him as such is not smart.

    Sometimes being a rookie in a new system is easier than being a veteran in a new system in that a rookie has an empty head. Sometimes these veterans have that old habit there...

    I actually said many times that he would fail in Arizona last season. I tend to agree with you that he's no better than a 2. But I'd like to see him with a full off season before formulating the final opinion...if that makes sense.

    you're more patient and forgiving than i am. i've seen enough of him.

    If it makes you feel better with millions on the line and needing a QB, I wouldn't run out to sign him...lol.
