Cleveland Browns check with Kansas City Chiefs about Trent Green
Metro Toronto, Canada - 5 hours ago
CLEVELAND (AP) - The Cleveland Browns seem to be beating the bushes for a veteran quarterback after all.

General manager Phil Savage confirmed Thursday night that that he contacted Kansas City GM Carl Peterson about Trent Green, a two-time Pro Bowl quarterback, during this week's NFL meetings in Phoenix. "I spoke to a number of teams/GMs about players/picks including KC," Savage said in an e-mail. "Bottom line, due diligence on a player who might be able to help us - nothing imminent or on the table."

Savage reiterated that he "did the same thing" with other teams. However, the fact that he would even approach another team about a proven QB is an interesting development for the Browns, who own the No. 3 overall pick in next month's draft.

Savage had said previously that the team would be willing to go into training camp next summer without a veteran and allow Charlie Frye and Derek Anderson to compete for the starting job.

I'd like him in Cleveland as a veteran backup, but only if the team doesn't overspend for him.

I am still a Charlie Frye guy. I think if they have an O line he will be a good QB.

Sure, stay with Frye... but have someone better than Anderson waiting in the wings if he struggles or gets hurt.
