Holmgren's job over the past year should be enough to exclude him from ever holding a front office job again. I was a huge supporter of his hiring, but that presumed he actually gave two sh*ts about the team.
That said, sheesh. I'd give Weeden at least a year in the Chud-Norv system before trading him for a 7th round pick or whatever they'll fetch for him.

How would you feel about Alex Smith?

I'd be ok with it. Browns don't have their 2nd round pick this year. I surely wouldn't want to spend a first. But at that point, why not just draft a dude in the 3rd round and hope he's Russell Wilson.
Still would prefer to see what Weeden would do with a vertical passing game. He's probably the worst kind of QB you could install in an accuracy-driven West Coast system, and perhaps a prototypical Chudzinski type passer.

Percy Harvin to Seattle??? Wow this seems like a huge step back for the Vikings. Seattle's first rounder is a late one. I guess this signals the Vikes are going in to rebuilding mode?

Mike Wallace to the Dolphins. That feels like a significant loss for Pittsburgh, more so than James Harrison.

Wallace held out last year, which the Steelers don't approve of, and then had a down year. Antonio Brown became the clear #1, so it was just a matter of time until Wallace was gone. There was no way to afford both. I think it is certainly a loss, but the passing game will be ok. They have bigger problems than losing Wallace (or Harrison). I'm not particularly optimistic about the team right now.

Feels like the ravens and steelers are losing a bunch of significant free agents. So should I start printing my Browns AFC North Champions t-shirt now or wait a few months?

Colt to SF. Good for Colt, a much better situation. Could see some good playing time too since Kapernick is probably going to be banged up a lot.

I agree. Good on Colt. He is a terrible fit for the CHUD/Norv system (I imagine) and was a good soldier when the Browns picked Weeden. He's a near-perfect backup for SF with his scrambling ability and his don't-kill-you-ability.
Gonna be awesome when he goes 3-1 coming off the bench for an injured Kaepernick and the 9ers flip him for a second rounder.
