Way back when, Coach Butch Davis said he might know the identity of the Browns' starting quarterback before training camp.
Thursday, he amended that view.
``I'm not going to make a decision prior to camp,'' Davis said.
So the quarterback competition between Tim Couch and Kelly Holcomb will continue -- starting next Friday, the first day of practice for the entire team. Davis' deadline for a decision: The third preseason game at Detroit on Aug. 23.
``It will unfold and reveal itself and we'll see what happens,'' Davis said.
Between now and next week, the team will try to sign its seven draft picks so all can be on the field for three days of rookie workouts starting Tuesday. None have signed yet, but Davis did not seem concerned because few picks throughout the league have signed.
``I think it's the kind of scenario of, `When is the shoe going to drop?' '' Davis said.
