So apparently the Browns are releasing/released Jake Delhomme. Perusing my Tweets, I see this:

OK, so he plays for the Brownies last year. We have Daboll. Does this make sense, or just Kelly seeing if anything sticks?
Thoughts?

I guess that makes sense considering he knows Daboll's offense already. I'd hope that'd be a contingency if a deal for Orton isn't worked out though.

We need 3 QBs. Delhomme is an experienced vet and knows the offense. Not sure what the problem is?
For the people objecting, why again would it be bad to have Delhomme as a #2/#3 QB?steveincolorado and Aqua4Ever04 like this. -
Yes, it makes perfect sense. We need a backup quarterback. If we trade for Orton, I think it makes a lot more sense to pick up Delhomme, who is familiar with Daboll, as the backup than it does to keep a disgruntled Chad Henne. Ship Chad Henne off somewhere else for whatever you can get, or package him in another deal. Let him go start fresh somewhere else.
This makes a lot of sense. -
Well, as a #3 Qb, you can do worse, as long as he understood that was his role...
Even still though

exactly, why the hell would anyone want Delhomme over Henne as our backup?
-
Would you rather him, or say..who?? for the #3? -

If he's strictly our backup im ok with that, but if he's competing for a starting spot than noooo way.

Yikes!!!!

We could sign anyone to be our #3 QB. 99% of which will have zero impact on the team. Delhomme knows the offense, and in the situtation with a short offseason and needing to power-learn the new playbook... having a vet QB who knows the offense would make a bigger impact than almost any other option for a #3 QB.steveincolorado and Stringer Bell like this. -

Just saw a post from Clayton that said Delhomme getting cut could make it easier for Orten to come to Miami (presumably for John Fox to use him as a back up to Tebow, I guess?). So what you said may end up reality anyways! -
-
As long as he never plays a snap, whatever.
-
We're ****ing losing. Then we can all try to get Lucky in April. -
Taylor back and now Trusnik. So JT is our backup pass rusher..........we could do worse. We'll have to really watch his snaps though. If we can get 10-15 maybe a bit more from him a game then I think that's a good area to be in for him.

Would rather have a UDFA or a young guy we can develop at the #3 QB position. If we're down to having Delhomme coming into a game, we're ****ed anyways.
-
i rather sign brad smith to be our #3 QB and with the new rule that would make much more sense

Keep him away

I would rather have them leave the roster spot empty.
