06:03 AM ET 04.20 | A general manger told me that he expects Cleveland to trade Brady Quinn this week but he???s not sure what team he will be heading to. The prevailing feeling in the NFL is that the Browns like Mark Sanchez and have spent considerable time getting to know everything they can about him.

I would rather have Quinn over Sanchez. Even though Brady didn't come through in the big games, he still to me is a more refine QB. Sanchez should have stayed at USC for 1 more year. Maybe Minnesota will grab Sanchez

I would give Brady a shot at a full season.

I'd be giddy if I were Quinn. Sounds like that's a terrible environment for a QB lately.

going from a qb that loses alot of big games to a player that won alot of big games in college not a bad idea

AND THE BROWNS WONDER WHY THEY CANT WIN ANYTHING, BLAME THE COACH AND FIRE HIM BUT DRAFT ANOTHER QB SMART. THEY DESERVE TO LOSE.

So are the Browns going to draft Sanchez with Pick #5 and then turn around and trade Anderson AND Quinn? Sounds like a fantasy football scenario to me, but not likely to work in the real world unless the Browns are just going to give Anderson and Quinn away.

Everyone remember - this week is like the super-tight, super-ridiculous week for NFL news. Just about nothing that you read will be true, because everyone is trying to put up smokescreens.

The Vikings offered two first rounders for Quinn last year. Maybe the Browns are hoping the Vikes will revisit the deal. Especially now that Cutler is in the division. Not saying Quinn is Cutler just saying that he would be an upgrade over Tjack. I think if they can get him for a 1st and 5th they do it.

And so the madness of the last few days before the draft begins. I would be seriously surprised if Cleveland takes another Qb with 2 guys on the roster already. I haven't heard of anybody banging down the Browns' door. I'm willing to bet this is a rumor started by the Browns' management to try and drum up more interest in trades for Anderson and Quinn.

Thank God Cleveland's got Lebron James, because they'll never win a Super Bowl with the circus they call a front office. BTW, Mangini, well, I'll let you finish it, but I'll spot you the "s" in the four lettered word I'm think of.

April 20, 2009  08:23 AM ET

Yes we want to trade an over-rated pretty boy with no arm strength for a weak armed primadonna who is all potential. Wait a minute, which is which again? The only difference is Sanchez has a criminal past. Throw in Brady's sister and her friend and you got a deal. Of course, Sanchez will have to vacate his USC student-aflete housing.

April 20, 2009  08:27 AM ET

Wow! Not sure what to think of this one (rumor). If this happens Mangini better hope that Sanchez works out or Bruce (Sportime Ohio) and the rest of the fans in Northeastern Ohio will be calling for is job.

This trade is absolutely retarded. Cleveland deserves to loose if it happens.

Stole me thunder!

I agree, Quinn should be happier than a fly in a wet dumpster. I never thought Quinn was that bad. He hasn't the game time to show what he'll become.

If the Browns were to trade quinn Im sure they wont trade Anderson. Well Hmmmmmmm... on second thought who knows what there thinking.

Mike Lombardi is a big 'tub o' lard'. i wouldn't listen to what he says over my 2 year old son. If the Browns had a 1st round pick on the table already, what happened to that? Why didn't they pull the trigger? They are just smoking it to see who will jump up to 5 to take Sanchez so we can trade down. Who wil freak first, Dan Snyder and the Skins, the Jets, someone else? Stay tuned. No Way the Browns trade Quinn, and actually get a 1st Rd. pick, but then draft another QB to sit. What the heck ever!

April 20, 2009  08:32 AM ET

Oh yeah, And Sanchez is the real thing? He's more of a question mark than Quinn is.

Weird man, just weird.

April 20, 2009  08:32 AM ET

I agree with the what guy take sanchez and dump brady q

April 20, 2009  08:33 AM ET

If they do and Bradys a Bust then they now lost 11 million. I dont think they are willing to take that chance, but then again if they draft Sanchez at #5 how much will that cost?
