Browns to give Vince Young a look-see

He’s back. Possibly. Maybe.

Quarterback Vince Young, the third overall pick in the 2006 draft who has been out of the NFL since 2011, will participate in the Browns’ voluntary minicamp on a tryout basis this week, according to Mark Berman of FOX 26 in Houston.

Young, who will take a physical on Monday, spent portions of the offseason in 2012 and 2013 with the Bills and Packers, respectively.

The Browns’ interest isn’t surprising. For starters, their best options currently are Brian Hoyer, who’s recovering from a torn ACL, and Alex Tanney, who’s best known for his abilities as a trick-shot artist.

Besides, owner Jimmy Haslam, a Tennessean, witnessed Young become a Pro Bowler in both 2006 and 2009 with the Titans. It makes sense for Haslam to at least raise with his football people the question of whether Young at least deserves a chance to compete with the top options currently under contract in Cleveland.

Young spent 2011 with the Eagles, with his biggest contribution being the inadvertent coining of the term “dream team.” In Cleveland, the overriding objective is to end a nightmare that has lasted for nearly 20 years.
 
As much as I hate "at the end of the day".

I want to finger-stab someone in the throat when I hear them say that.
 
Earl Thomas just re-signed with the Seahawks for 4 years/40 mill. 27.75 mill guaranteed. Wow.

They are also going into negotiations with Richard Sherman now with the intent of making him the highest paid CB in the league.
 
Browns sign Vince Young.
 
Browns also signed Tyler Thigpen.
 
Trying to throw people off the trail for their wanting to draft a QB.
 
I'd give that money to Thomas without blinking.
 
ESPN - Redskins cut safety Tanard Jackson, who was reinstated by NFL on Monday after drug-related suspension
 
I'd have to work him out since he hasn't played in a few years but I would bring in Tanard Jackson. Garrett is too big of a sissy but I'd like to see if he still has it.

He is sitting on three strikes already so if he f's up again, the NFL will ban him. I'd bet junk $100 he's better than anything we have at Free Safety right now, rust and all.
 


Watch them sign him and he turns out well for them. Meanwhile, we were too good for him.
 


Well damn. That didn't last long.

Cut Alex Tanney too.
 
Alex Tanney.... I guess he will be back in a few days when Orton retires
 
I thought it was lame of Sherman to kind of bag on Peterson for using his deal as a reference. Thought it was kind of an unwritten rule for players to want their peers to get those dollars.
