THE BIG STORY

After his free fall in the 2007 NFL Draft, Brady Quinn is out for revenge

NEW YORK - Picked #7 in the BDFL, but falling to 22nd overall in the NFL Draft, Brady Quinn was proud to be a Green Springs Grenade, but once the free fall stopped, the former Irish macho man was relieved to be a Cleveland Brown. Quinn "The Medicine Man" as he'll be known throughout the league, should be the perfect fit for the blue collared, heavy Catholic Cleveland community. He will also be more than determined to prove those who passed on him to be wrong.   Look for Quinn to play early and often and put up big numbers in the BDFL in 2007.

Green Springs Grenades quarterback  draftee - Brady Quinn is out to prove the 21 teams who passed on him in the NFL Draft to be wrong in 2007 and for years to come
