Jake Delhomme to Visit Saints (Cleveland signs Jake)

I don't care who we go out and sign, there's not a man on the planet (besides Peyton Manning) who could make Drew Brees look over his shoulder. I personally don't think it's a bad thing to bring Delhomme back in as a backup if he understands his role. But Drew Brees is a top 2 QB in the NFL, he's not going to get scared of Delhorrible

Jake Delhomme has agreed to a two-year deal with the Cleveland Browns, according to a league source.
Delhomme visited with the Browns on Thursday, but left without a deal. He was scheduled to visit the New Orleans Saints on Friday, but his trip was delayed because his flight was canceled, according to league sources.
Delhomme was released by the Carolina Panthers earlier this month after seven seasons with the team.

Cleveland Browns, Jake Delhomme agree to two-year contract - ESPN

Best of luck to him ... not sure if this is the best option for him.

his next best option was backing up drew

he'll go to the browns and be a starter for 2 years and then find a new home

you guys forget that just 4 short seasons ago we were also the laughing stock of the NFL

nobody wanted to come here and everybody that did come here got mocked and laughed at by the rest of the fans

the browns have a solid defense.....they have a lot of young talent......they are missing a few key pieces

1 of which is leadership......fujita and delhomme will solve that problem

Thanks Smash for article.

JD,2 yr.deal w/Cleveland at 7 million. Seven million.

Article says his home town team is N.O. Saints.
That should be that JD's home state team is Saints.

And most of North Carolina feels his home town team is NO Saints!

Just glad he isn't with the Saints. There is a real dislike for the fella up here in NC and it tends to rub off on all of us who aren't Panthers fans! In two years, where will he be? Wishing he had been #2 behind Drew Brees!

Hooray we didn't get him!

Wow, the Browns keep on making questionable decisions don't they?

SAINT_MICHAEL · 03-14-2010, 05:19 AM

Just to go full circle...I bet Sean Payton could make Quinn or Andersen good QBs with this team. It would be interesting if we signed either to be a backup behind Drew.

Different front office same horrible decisions. The Browns will continue to be bad.
