There must not have been any demand for him at all. Which boggles the mind. He didn't run his mouth ONCE all last season. He sat on the inactive list all year without a peep. He was rookie of the year in 2012, but he has less than 3 full years of wear and tear.

Yeah, he's had injuries, but nothing that any other QB hasn't overcome.

The Rams, Jets, Broncos, and 49ers all have unsettled QB situations. None of them made him an offer?

Was that all he got? The Browns, or bust?

I haven't seen a playoff QB get shunned like that since Tim Tebow.

Rip

It's the curse of the dual threat QB, especially when that injury is on your knees/ankles.

From what I've read, those teams were interested in him, but after doing their research, something scared them off and they went in a different direction.

And now that he gets to play behind that OL? My prediction is that if he wins the starting job, he'll be out by mid season with a knee injury.

Yeah, I don't know why his reputation is so bad.

I've followed him pretty closely over the last four years. He's a LOT less controversial than a lot of other QBs that are still playing.

I just don't get it. Unless there's something in his medical record that marks him as irrevocably broken, he seems like he'd be worth a shot on a team without a solid franchise QB.

I'm a bit disappointed that the Rams didn't go for him. Foles and Keenum definitely don't look like they're gonna be the solution.

According to what I've read, it's his poor reputation in the locker room along with his injury history.

I'm sure you can find positives and negatives about that.

The locker room bullshit goes both ways.

I've heard a few players (usually ones that were not very good) talk shit, while everyone else jumps to his defense.

So, I dunno. I guess we'll see how the experiment in Cleveland works out. I wish him the best, but I don't think that'll do him any good.

Casting rez:

Since the draft is over with and OTAs have started, figured that it's time to drag out my prediction post for the 2016 season. So without further ado.

We'll start a 2017 thread soon enough... but I have to call homerism on your NFC West pick... Arizona got better this offseason, especially where it needed it the most (O-line, defensive front and pass rush).

(yes, I live in AZ, but not really a Cardinals fan... and I'm not even sure I agree with you picking my Redskins to win the East... I think Dallas is the team to beat still, assuming a healthy Romo)

The good guys are winning!

Ayyyyy NFC South Represent.

New England is just bad people make them lose!

no u

Well, this season was a complete disappointment.

My Redskins completely stagnated. Dallas got good

And all I heard all year was crying on the local radio about how disappointing the Cardinals were (and they were... but, damn...)
