Josh McDaniels won a trade?! Well, he was negotiating with the Browns and Eric Mangini. I know this trade was probably Mike Holmgren’s doing too, but Eric Mangini wanted Quinn out of there and Holmgren, no longer needing Quinn after signing Delhomme yesterday, did what Mangina wanted and sold Quinn for pennies on the dollar. Let’s see what they got for him. Two late picks and a fullback. I know Peyton Hillis can also play some running back, but he’s nothing more than a solid power backup to Jerome Harrison and a decent lead blocker, but they already have Lawrence Vickers at fullback and he does a decent job. Brady Quinn wasn’t developing the way they wanted him to, but 353 career attempts is not enough to write off a former 1^st rounder as a bust and sell him for a fullback and two late round picks. As for the Broncos, they got a steal here as Quinn has some upside and fits their system well. Too bad they already have Kyle Orton. I don’t know what they pan to do with both. Neither are great, but neither are awful.

Grade for Broncos: B+

Grade for Browns: C-
