Derek Anderson 1 year deal?

by Bernie19Kosar on Mar 6, 2008 10:10 PM EST

James Walker has broken down Derek Andersons' new deal. Interesting note...

What stands out most is the huge roster bonus of $5 million due before the 2009 season. This confirms everyone's suspicion that Cleveland's two-quarterback system is a one-year experiment.

The Browns will not pay Anderson a $5 million roster bonus next year unless they are convinced he is their long-term solution at quarterback. If not, the Browns likely will make a trade and turn to Brady Quinn.

Looks like Savage may have something up his sleeve for next years draft...

Would you accept this trade?

If a team with a mid-first round pick offered you their first pick for Derek Anderson would you make the trade? If they offered the same pick for Brady Quinn would you make the trade?

Re: Would you accept this trade?

At this point, I'd probably hold out for a Top 10 pick for DA for this year specifically and would not trade Quinn. A year from now? My guess is that my opinion would change in favor of giving Quinn the starting job for 2009.
