No.

Just from football related perspective, he cannot run a pro offense efficiently.

If we want a player to run around and make plays, leave it to Prescott and Showers.

Vick is not a savvy veteran that can make a difference.
Out of that list of Browns' QBs, I would hope that we are after Austin Davis

Get real..if we are going with old QB's just get Vick in here. I'm reporting any non-football related responses so save yourself the trouble.
Throw a bomb like that then threaten anyone that responds? That is very un-football like!

And that is fair.

Vick is a "name". But his work since leaving Dan Reeves speaks for itself.

He has amazing talent in his arm, still. And of course can run.

But he has not had the opportunity to develop mentally beyond what he was in Atlanta.

If all we want is a run around QB, just roll with the younger kids.

To me Vick is the left handed Joe Gilliam. Now that guy had an arm.

His best year was without Reeves. In Philly, after prison. By a lot.

Not that I want him here. 2010-12 were 2 pretty damn good years for him. Andy Reid got a lot from some real bums.

McCown is probably the best bet at this point, but I read his salary is $4mil +.

I'd rather have McCown than Foles but that is without taking into consideration salary or compensation that the Browns would ask for.

I see both as only backup QB's with no real starting future ahead of them. McCown at least has toughness and some grit. Of course he's old but in a backup role for a year or two he'd be fine.

Just my two cents.

Vick won games last year with the Steelers as a backup QB. They are like Dallas in a few ways as their defense was not good at all and have a very good offense

Why would Foles want to be here?

He won't be the starter. Not the future. Can't increase his value unless Romo gets hurt.

He'll hold out for a better offer.

Well, no starting jobs available that I know of.

I'm always amazed how the same guys over and over again get jobs but others don't. The McCowns of the world...... Always there to steal someone's money.

I wouldn't give cleveland anything for him. Wait for him to be cut or sign foles. Unless this is a negotiating tactic with foles.
Files ain't all that. I'll take a pack of kools and bags of chips instead.

Yeah. Teams are banging down the door to sign him too. We got no chance.

Take 51% toughness 49% skill all day.
