OT: Brady Quinn to the Broncos - Page 4 - New England Patriots Forums

I think this is a steal, as opposed to a mistake for the Bronco's. Hillis is certainly replacable, and the late picks are camp fodder the vast majority of the time. In Quinn, the Broncos get a 1st round talent, who's struggled with one of, if not the most, talentless offenses in the league. This is a low risk, high reward move for the Broncos.

If you consider Cutler better than I guess your right

Something else that is interesting. Schefter just tweeted that Quinn wanted out of Cleveland and is happy to be gone..

I think that Quinn will have a chip on his shoulder and be out to prove that he wasn't the issue in Cleveland.

I still can't believe that Mangini is still the coach there. I don't understand what Holmgren is thinking with that lack of a move..

I like it for Denver too. I'm not sold on Quinn but they gave up a totally replaceable RB and late picks. Well worth the shot. And although I'm not sold on Quinn he may be their best QB right now.

All Denver gave up was Peyton Hillis and some late round picks. Hillis is a talented fullback but he's still that, JUST a fullback. Josh obviously believes that he can salvage Quinn, or he wouldn't make this move. Even if it doesn't work out, he didn't lose much. And you have to admit that Quinn has more upside than Kyle Orton.

i think this could put denver into the playoffs if everyone gels nicely...dammit

Excellent move by the Broncos. They give up little in return for a possible Franchise QB.

Quinn excelled in the same system that McKid is running.....

He'll have Quinn dumping off to Moreno and throwing 7 yard crossing patterns all day long. If there is one system Brady Quinn can excel in, it's McDaniels. Good trade for every party involved.

Huge mistake? Josh traded a couple sixth rounders and a fullback (dime a dozen) for a former first round draft choice that might turn into a good player in the right system.

Delhomme was the worst starting QB other than Russel and that was with a stud WR and a great running game. Yeah, Quinn and Anderson were bad but Delhomme is HORRIBLE.
