  • Anyone concerned that we gave 100M to a small corner with legitimate concussion concerns now?

     I'd love to know how I saw IDL as a problem this season and he didn't then.  

    Yes, we were concerned with the IDL...But apparently he/they were thinking that the guys they drafted were ready to step up and fill the roles.  Now, it's become apparent that they are not up to the task.

    The concern is magnified because we are weak at all three levels up the middle.   We can’t go into next training camp confident if we have Johnson and Delpit in the back Philips and another stop gap again at Mike.

    But he does have a lot of downtime. That's what's good on have two backs that could be featured backs for 95% of NFL teams. I am so stoked that Kareem is still here. PAY THE MAN!

    You have big contracts for Watson, Garrett, Ward and Chubb. There's some OLinemen making good money, along with Njoku. 

    Thanks for the effort Kareem, it's been fun watching you, good luck next year wherever you end up.

    It is beginning to look that way and I feel better about that given that we aren’t starting 2023 with a game manager type QB.  
     

    If you want to run the ball 40 times- Hunt is not a luxury he’s a necessity

    Absolutely!   Last time I saw someone that talented and fragile he was Made in China and stayed on sidelines.  Yao Ming

  • I just wanna say l love beating the Bengals.

    I can understand why Hunt is still on the roster, you just don't give that kind of talent away for a 4th round pick. Even if there is a log jam at RB , Kareem is a game changing back.

    I'm hoping this hasn't lured the front office into a false sense of security about the status of the Browns IDL.  They're still not good.

    What I've noticed in off seasons is that Berry seems to address what we see as problems.  I feel pretty confident that he's got IDL at the top of his list.

    ...and your guy, Winfrey, didn't even get to dress.

    With the number of concussions he's had I think he should retire.....before he screws up his later years of life.

    Better to retire when you  need  to rather than too  late   and live to regret it.   These guys all make decent money now that if they're  smart  enough to save  especially if they hit that rather generous NFL pension should be financially alright.   

    Nothing sadder than another Ken Stabler, Junior Seau  among many,  many others.

    I'm assuming that we don't get any compensatory picks if a guy retires.
