Carr in Cleveland? (Rumor)

[Smooth]

Over from the RealGM boards, from the NFL scout there...

Something I heard tonight, from the person who told me 3 weeks before the actual signing last year about LeCharles Bentley coming home:

David Carr is a pretty good bet to be the starting QB in Cleveland next year. It's beyond preliminary talks, and if the price I heard is legit, Browns fans should be happy. Now whether or not Carr is a signficant upgrade, who knows...

I'd really like the trade for Carr... I think he'd be a good fit here as long as we can develop our line into a solid one... The Texans offensive was a huge problem for him as well as the poor positional players... Putting him with K2, BE and JJ would do wonders for him...

Remember, this IS a rumor...

What would you trade for him? A second day pick at best...

 

[TheAdmin]

Swap draft position in the 2nd and fourth rounds.

Wouldn't mind it...he's better than Joey Harrington and it makes a little more sense then getting a senior citizen (Kerry Collins, Brad Johnson)

 

[Mac]

I wonder how likely this is to happen...

 

[chiefwahoo]

Would Carr be any better than a healthy Couch? I'm not trying to be sarcastic either, that is a serious question. I just don't know what would help this team anymore, they completely baffle me. I would not want Phil Savage's job.

I'd rather have Carr than Chuck Fries

If it happens, carr will become the sacrificial lamb for a year while whatever QB we draft learns the offense

I hope not, we've been down that road a few too many times already. I'm tired of playing rotating QB's. I wish we could just get a franchise guy in here for a few years and we could stop worrying about drafting a new QB every other year.

Carr is better than Frye, although that's probably not saying much.

How much would he cost against the cap?

I wouldn't mind this if it is on the cheap.

You need a line of at least solid college guys before bringing in a franchise QB...we're Junior Varsity in highschool about now..

I heard Carr was available earlier in the week but didn't hear this.

Did this guy end up saying what the price would be for Carr?

... and we need a D-line... and a quality RB... and some help in the secondary... and a head coach with a pulse... etc, etc.

Yikes. (that's all I got)
