    Ward is a tough loss... But his availability... Or lack thereof... Bothers me...

      When it is time to tighten the belt, I’d take two DBs at half the cost that are likely to play more than 12 games over Ward.  His lack of availability crushed us this past Sunday.

        Right.

        Seems the injury bug has plagued the Browns secondary for years, including Haden who departed 5 or 6 years ago.

          Just saw that Janovich, MJ Stewart and Chris Hubbard put on IR. I wasn’t aware Janovich was injured and l thought Hubbard was already on IR. 

          Corresponding moves, DE Joe Jackson gets to ride the active roster train this week along with FB Johnny Stanton, and CB Tim Harris gets elevated from the PS. T Alex Taylor signed to the PS too.

            I'll tell you what, players now-a-days play with hardly any pads on anymore.  The shoulder pads on 'skilled' players are little itty bitty things.  And below the waist, virtually no pads at all.  And they're extending the season.  You KNOW they'll want a nice even 18 games, rather than this lopsided schedule thing they've got going on now.

            Ward is out.  That's bad.  It's happening too often.  But he's our best CB.  He's a good player.  Newsome was out too.  Greedy Williams is gonna be 'out' soon enough.  But all of the other backups at CB that we were using were also getting injured in the game.  Might as well have GOOD players getting hurt than mediocre guys who are gonna get hurt too.

              I don’t follow that logic “might as well have good players getting hurt”.  If we are eventually going to pay Ward 17-20M a year into his late 20s we don’t need that cap space on the IR

                  I might not agree on all.  It seems some get hurt more often.  That is what I don't want.

                  Face it, Hospital Ward is just a frail player.  If he didn't get involved with tackling players, he  probably wouldn't get hurt expect for a hamstring issue once or twice a season.

                  If everybody had like minds, we would never learn.

                    Meh, Joe Haden used to give himself concussions on the reg, he seemed to out grow that though. Maybe give Hospital Ward some Adderall??

                      ward is going to get a huge contract ... i dont think it will be from the browns they drafted Newsome as his replacement.  

                      Also Teller is gone as well just start bracing for it mentally.  He will get a huge contract and with paying Tretter , Bitonio and Conklin already its not happening .

                        Which of our CB's have demonstrated that they are not frail?   My line has been to call them brittle.

                            Ward is 0 for 3 staying healthy. He’s missed a month in each of his first three seasons.  He’s missed 12 games and he’s still on his first contract.

                                          My point, they're ALL going to get hurt.  Would you rather have good players or cheap players?  

                                          Ward is 0 for 3 staying healthy. He’s missed a month in each of his first three seasons.  He’s missed 12 games and he’s still on his first contract.

                                          Through his first 3 years myles Garrett missed more than games than "hospital" ward missed through his first 3 if we're going with this availability argument
