- To complement Edwards, they have David Patten and Robert Royal
- They will have a QB competition between Derek Anderson and Brady Quinn, either one of which could have conceivably been Mark Brunell's successor if not for Campbell.

I don't see this ending well.

Brett Favre

Coach Eric Mangini would like Brett Favre to attend Browns training camp this summer as a "guest instructor."

Favre remains under contract with the Jets, but we'll refrain from the "that hasn't stopped him before" comments. Mangini visualizes Favre helping Brady Quinn and Derek Anderson and stresses that it would be nothing "formal." It's certainly fair to question the wisdom of inviting a media circus in Mangini's first year on the job.
