Yep, after four hours of waiting, Brady Quinn has been drafted. The Cleveland Browns traded up with the Dallas Cowboys to pick Brady Quinn with the 22nd overall pick.

Great job by the Browns who now have a franchise offensive tackle and a franchise quarterback.

This is the move of the draft. Cleveland wanted either Thomas or Quinn at #3, and they wind up getting BOTH! Unbelievable!

yeah and Quinn lucked out in this as well

Russell will be lucky not to spend 1/2 the year on IR while Quinn may very well become ROY

Quinn goes to a team with a high-quality new LT in Thomas, Edwards at wideout, Winslow and Heiden at the TE positions, Jamal Lewis in the backfield... there's a lot of offensive talent here. if only LeCharles Bentley was healthy.

I'm just shocked that Brady Quinn fell all the way to #22 in the NFL draft. But I think it'll be good news for both the Browns & for Quinn.

How long until Quinn is the starter for the Browns? Will he be there in game #1 or will they groom him as an understudy for a year or more?

I'd say there's a definite shot he starts in week one. I'm sure he'll be given every opporunity to win the job.

i think they need to give him a few weeks maybe put him in for week 3 against the Raiders ...... should be a good chance to get a win and start him off on the right foot

looks like if things go their way the have a shot at 9 wins this year

Can Brady Quinn lead this team to the playoffs? I don't think it's totally out of the question.

alot depends on how their defense stacks up now

the offense should be fairly effective if the defense can keep them in games

though they are still in a tough division ..... with a fairly tough schedule

Well, there is a GM now in Cleveland looking like a genuis for passing on Quinn at #3...
