2010 NFL Draft: These Are Mike Holmgren's Cleveland Browns Now

Whatever the 2010 Cleveland Browns turn out to be, 100 percent of the credit or blame will fall on Mike Holmgren's shoulders.

In what can only be described as eye-catching moves, Holmgren and General Manager Tom Heckert replaced their two young quarterbacks: one who was largely unproven and one who threw a lot of interceptions.

But Jake Delhomme and Seneca Wallace are older than Brady Quinn and Derek Anderson, so they have that going for them...wait.

What?!?!?!?

These moves didn't make any sense, as we stand here today in the middle of March.

None.

Zero.

This is not meant to be an impassioned defense of Quinn or Anderson, it's a statement of fact when you look at the situation objectively. The Browns essentially have the same two kinds of quarterbacks, except they're older.

Add to this the trade of Kamerion Wimbley, the teams' leading pass rusher, to the Oakland Raiders for a third-round draft pick and Head Coach Eric Mangini would like to formally thank Holmgren and Heckert for distracting people from how bad he got swindled during the 2009 draft tradedown debacle.

Wimbley was the Browns' first-round pick in 2006, so he only is 26-years-old and has only missed one game in his four years with the Browns. Wimbley's contract also was club-friendly at a relatively cheap $1.065 million for the 2010 season.

To add fuel to our "What the . . ?" fire, Wimbley's 26.5 career sacks were the most posted in Cleveland in a four-season stretch since the Browns returned to the league in 1999.

For that we only got a third-round pick.

That's just bad negotiating and shame on our front office for not sticking to their guns and holding out for more.

Of course, why they even wanted to trade Wimbley is the question.

You'd think there would be a place on our thin defense for a guy with 26.5 sacks in a four-year period. This is the team that gave a second-round tender to D'Qwell Jackson, who only has three sacks in the same time period, and Wimbley only is worth a third-round pick?

Where's George "Costanza" Kokinis when you need him? That's how awful the Wimbley trade should be viewed right now.

No matter what you think of Quinn, though, the fact is the Browns traded a former first-round draft pick for a backup running back, a sixth-round pick in 2011, and a conditional pick in 2012.

Since Quinn only has 12 starts to his career and only is 25-years-old, that's garbage. The Browns would've been better off just keeping him and giving it one more try.

Holmgren's famous for molding quarterbacks, but seems to think Quinn is a lost cause. Fine, Quinn is a lost cause, but this was a weak move not befitting a front office that's supposed to be savvier than this.

As the Browns move into next month's draft, the idea they might draft Tim Tebow no longer is that far-fetched because, why wouldn't they?

Draft a punter in the second round? Why not?

It makes about as much sense as signing a 35-year-old quarterback who throws a lot of interceptions and trading your best pass rusher for peanuts.

A press conference is scheduled in which Holmgren will be available. It will be interesting to see if he is held to the same level of criticism as Mangini was because Holmgren has a lot of explaining to do.
