I love this move on the Brown's end.. There is a slight possibility that Brock can turn the ship around and become a salvage QB for 2-3 years while they rebuild. I love they picked up a second-round pick in the process. The cap is not an issue in Cleveland, so why not get paid to take a chance on a young QB when you won't be in contention for at least two more years? Absolutely brilliant.
Imagine Brock developing into a really good QB (not plausible but just imagine.) Clev would get paid a second round pick to take over the contract of a good QB. It's a no-brainer for Cleveland. The only possible way this is negative is if the Browns front office thinks he's the guy and do not draft a 1st round QB this year or next (and he continues to be awful) or his cap hit becomes a problem when the Brown's are trying to sign a few guys to make them contenders. I love trades like this in the NFL.
Also, not a horrible deal on Houston's end as they will probably sign Romo and become instant contenders.
