Report: Browns asking Vikings for high draft pick in exchange for Josh McCown

The Cleveland Browns are reportedly asking quite a bit if someone wants to take Josh McCown off their hands.

The Minnesota Vikings have looked at McCown in light of the injury to Teddy Bridgewater, according to Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com. However, the Browns are asking for what is called “a high pick” in exchange for McCown, wary of Robert Griffin III’s injury history and cognizant of McCown’s role as a leader.

The Vikings have not weighed in on the asking price yet, but Cabot reports that Colin Kaepernick, Mark Sanchez, Mike Glennon, and Michael Vick could be other names the Vikings look at in light of Bridgewater’s injury.

The Cowboys targeted Foles, but this asking price chased them off. It seems like it could do the same to the Vikings and they’ll have to look elsewhere.
