[CBFF] Anderson An Option Again?

Windy City Gridiron by WCG on 2/1/08 A few weeks ago, the Cleveland
Browns announced that Derek Anderson would be their starter next year,
that last year of his contract. They are trying to work out an extended
deal to keep him around until they think Brady Quinn is ready. Problem
is Anderson isn't buying it. He wants a longer deal.
The Browns opened negotiations last week by offering Anderson a
three-year deal, but Anderson's representation is seeking a longer
term, about five years. The sides hope to reach a deal before free
agency opens Feb. 29.
Anderson obviously isn't interested in Brady Quinn's development, he
wants a long term deal and have a team. Assuming Anderson doesn't bite
on a short term deal and the Browns decide to just tender him high and
take the best offer, Anderson comes back on the radar. With it looking
likely that Donovan McNabb is going to stay with Philly, this would
potentially drive Anderson's value up, again making it worth the
decision for both the Browns and Anderson.
So start the debating again, interested?
