The news of Josh McCown joining the Browns dropped shortly after most workers clocked out for the weekend, but there was no shortage of reaction from the national reporters who cover every crevice of the NFL.

For those that shut off social media during the weekend or simply don't follow everyone who covers the league, here's a small sampling to kick off your Monday.

The Josh McCown signing by the Browns is also a good thing for Manziel. McCown's a real pro & a good influence for young QBs.

With the Bucs' OC situation last year, Josh McCown was practically a player-coach. He could be an enormous help for Manziel if JM embraces.

As mentioned previously, McCown was pretty much installing game plans for the Bucs this past year in Tedford's absence. Smart guy.

#Browns did their homework on McCown: They felt issues last season were related to no OC, major OL problems, lack of running gm, thumb inj.

McCown wants to help Manziel grow as a person and player http://t.co/BpwBv2Qftc

It appeared Josh McCown was headed to Buffalo. It took old-school recruiting by #Browns to secure him. Pettine, Haslam, Defilippo did work
