Anderson came out 29 touchdowns passes and led the team created a 10 team wins six negative history records, he was elected in 2007, the All-Star team. However, since then, his promising career into a corner. The start of last season, he lost the starting position, replaced by Brady - Quinn, which he later returned to the starting lineup once again relegated to the bench. When Quinn is injured, he returned to starting position, and the Cleveland Browns won the last two games.
Anderson, now 26-year-old played in the Cleveland Browns team five seasons, he was in 2005 Baltimore Ravens selected, then traded to the Cleveland Browns. Anderson on March 19 should be given a list of two million U.S. dollars prize money, his salary in 2010 will reach 7.45 million U.S. dollars, a heavy economic burden Cleveland Browns decided to give his reasons. "I want to thank Derek for his in the past five years, the contribution for the Cleveland Browns," coach Eric Mangini said in a statement, "We asked him to do everything he did, coaching such a a competitive player is a pleasant thing. I wish him every success in the coming days. "
In 2007, Anderson, 3,787 yards passing in his 29 passing, 17 second pass on the outside to take over Bulei Long - John Edwards, this has been taken over outside the Cleveland Browns last season was sold to New York Jets. Has the strongest arm, as one of the NFL players, Anderson never failed to repeat his 2007's success. In the last season of seven games, Anderson completed only 182 passes in 81 times (passing success rate 45%) totaled 888 yards, including three touchdowns passing, and 10 steals. October 11 last year, the Buffalo, strong winds, Anderson 17 passes, only two were successful and a total of 23 yards, but the Cleveland Browns finally to 6-3 victory over the Buffalo Bill Team . Anderson's 42.1 rating is extremely bad points, starting at the Anderson Brown race record of 3 wins 4 losses. Regardless of his own struggles and those from the Cleveland Browns fans like the constant criticism of Quinn, Anderson had never complained before, remains one of the leaders as a team inside.
Last year, December 20, Quinn leg injuries, after that, Anderson return to the starter, and have achieved victory in the final two games, Cleveland Brown, a four-game winning streak ended the final game, which also saved mandji to dump to Nepal.
Anderson is likely to soon join another team. His 6-foot 6-inch height, he was young, and his strong arm, a rare enough to make NFL general managers salivate. He also had a 34 times starting experience.
For the Cleveland Browns, their quarterback for choosing the direction is unclear. Quinn failed to meet expectations; Wallace, this with the Cleveland Browns President Mike - Holmgren worked in the Seahawks players, he has a good all-round skills, but they do not see in him to the future prospects. Holmgren said last week that the team is trying to find the one quarterback, but did not made it clear that this is where the election means that the free agent or through a trade. Cleveland Browns in April's draft, there will be 11 in options, the club is likely to pick out a good player and cultivate those.
