Acording to NFL Network's Adam Schefter:
As one general manager with a top-10 pick emailed Wednesday: "Cleveland's owner told (the Browns) to draft a QB. … The Lions want it known that they have the pick for Quinn. Minnesota and Houston will have to react. All this Quinn dropping talk is from people who have no clue about the draft."
I don't know where he gets the pulse of Browns fans, but Adam Schefter said tonight on NFL's Total Access Cleveland will be as happy with Quinn as they were the day Bernie Kosar was drafted. I have to completely disagree. He may be from Ohio, but Buckeye fans are far from dying to draft a Notre Dame guy. He must only mean the team's front office.Schefter said the Raiders are talking to several teams about trading down and the Lions are threatening the Browns and letting it be known they'll have to trade up to No. 2 to draft Quinn.
Writes Schefter: "This all leaves the Cleveland Browns in a precarious position. Multiple NFL sources said Browns upper management is urging the team to draft a quarterback, with Russell being the top choice, and Quinn being a logical second.
Some within the Browns organization do not want the teams to hold the No. 3 pick and not come away with a potential franchise quarterback.
The Lions know this and it is one reason they are engaged in as many discussions as they are. To ensure themselves a quarterback, the Browns will have to trade up to No. 1 or No. 2 to get him."
