Best Answer

Quinn, a talented quarterback at the college level and a native of Dublin Ohio was a childhood fan of the Browns and thus, considered a "hometown boy" by many in Northeast Ohio. Projected to be a top 5 pick, and by many to be the Browns #1 draft pick his draft day stock plummeted while the Browns also focused on their offensive line by drafting Joe Thomas with their top pick. As Quinn's stock fell, the Browns felt their top pick next year would not be able to get them a player of a higher quality than Quinn and pulled the trigger to trade for an additional pick. Before the season, the Browns also were not aware of the full potential of Derek Anderson nor the failure of Charlie Frye in their system. They drafted Quinn to be the quarterback of the future.
