  • What an awesome series of events that was @gumby73. That was such a cool letter, and an even cooler thing you did!

    Also, nice call on Joel and I'm glad we locked him up.

    Yeah... Most people usually can't wait to leave Cleveland.

    will Hunt even be here next year ?

    Well, according to Sportrac.. Hunt is under contract in 2022 for $6 million. Yeah, I'd say he's going to be here next year. 

    Unless you think the Browns will go the bargain basement route and offer Johnson a couple million a year to stick around.  🙂

    Bet that happens.. DJ is out of contract [UDFA signed 2019] after this season.  Is there any RB room more legit than Chubb/Hunt/DJ/Felton?

    oh cool i thought this was his last year under contract

  • Correct me if I'm wrong, Hunt is UFA after the 2022 season.  I doubt Barry will want to give $6 mil to a 1b RB.   I'd very much expect him to hand D'J a couple mil a year after this season and lock him up as our long term Robin to Chubb's Batman.

  • I don't think Hunt wants the added pressures that comes as a RB1 again ? was it the added stress/lo'cal/body bangs cracking him up once? (maybe)..

    for what KH brings? He's happy..He's Home & still paid on a fair deal...

    Felton...imho... needs more game day snaps... Coy or not... I've seen nothing on the all 22's that says they can cover this rook..let him NFL grow Stef

  • Maybe DJ wants a shot somewhere?

    Regarding Felton I don’t see a RB.  Not in our scheme and not at this level yet.  Give him a couple gadget Run plays and you use play design to try to isolate him in the slot against a LB/S.

    I was going to disagree with this... but...after thinking about it and looking it up, Felton actually had a slightly faster 40 time than Jarvis at the combine. I thought Landry would have been a good bit faster. So, I agree with that.

    have not seen enough of Felton's blocking assignments..

    have not seen (or coaches trusting?) Felton in any type of pass pro assignment.. 

    72 total offensive snaps/149 ST... 13 of 14 in catching targets from both positions..

    While Felton’s intrigue derives from his versatility, some front offices likely soured on him given his below-average athletic testing.

    At UCLA’s pro day, Felton ran the 40-yard dash in a disappointing 4.59 seconds (1.62-second 10-yard split), the 3-cone drill in 7.31 seconds, and the short shuttle in 4.5 seconds. He also delivered a subpar 31.5-inch vertical. Considering his meager size — 5-foot-9 and 189 pounds — Felton’s composite athletic profile rates among the very worst of both running backs and wide receivers.

    But while athletic profiles hold increasing value in the NFL, Felton can overcome his shortcomings with skill and the ability to stay on the field in myriad roles. That, ultimately, mattered the most to his draft stock.  (Fits the Felton I've seen)

    EDit-- Felton in the least was not my draft bother... The drafting A. Schwartz was my bother.. the board was loaded..

    Correct ^^^^

    Here's Juice's 'comparing the same' Pro day speed dials..

    Pro Day Date: 4/9/2014
    40 Yard Dash: 4.61 seconds
    40 Yard (MPH): 17.75 (MPH)
    20 Yard Split: 2.69 seconds
    10 Yard Split: 1.58 seconds
    Bench Press: (N/A) reps (225 lb)
    Vertical Leap: 31.5 inches
    Height: 71.5 inches
    Weight: 205 lbs
    Broad Jump: 113 inches
    Hand Size: 10.25 inches
    Arm Length: 31.75 inches
    20 Yd Shuttle: 4.59 seconds
    Three Cone: 7.56 seconds

    Both 40's/3 cone drill times should bother some ? 

    Joel Bitonio won't mind skipping his combine numbers ?

    I like Felton. But he's a role player... he's no Jarvis Landry.

    I feel the same way. I wonder how certain players will perform once the spotlights switches to them. 

    Great resigning of Bitonio. OL is a mandatory continous investment for this offensive system.
