Hillis, Peyton (RB)
The Cleveland Browns have acquired Hillis and a 2011 draft pick from Denver in exchange for quarterback Brady Quinn.
Hillis is an excellent blocking back and this should be a solid deal for the Browns since Quinn never proved he had what it takes to start in the NFL.

Delhomme, Jake (QB)
Delhomme, released last week by Carolina, is visiting the Cleveland Browns. Agent Rick Smith said Thursday that Delhomme is at Cleveland's team headquarters in Berea, Ohio. The Browns have been shopping for a quarterback, and earlier this week acquired backup Seneca Wallace in a trade and released Derek Anderson. Agent Rick Smith would not comment on Delhomme's visit to Cleveland.
Delhomme went 58-40 in seven seasons as the Panthers' starter and led them to one Super Bowl appearance. He was cut as the Panthers trimmed salary - Delhomme is still owed $12.5 million - and so they could promote Matt Moore to starter. Delhomme is coming off his worst season, throwing a career-high 18 interceptions. He broke down in tears last week as he said goodbye to the Panthers and their fans.
