    PFF #9 Devin Bush got 3 years for 30M (AB..Ya should of paid it !)

    PFF #59 Alex Anzalone got the same 2 years for 17M to TB

    PFF ranked Jets Quincy Williams #154 

    Williams' three-year extension with the Jets didn't age as desired. Last year, he was responsible for a 45.5 overall PFF grade, with his 35.2 PFF coverage grade the fifth-lowest among qualified linebackers. His missed tackle percentage also increased by 3%, while his run stop rate fell from 8.8% to 7.7%. The 29-year-old has put good tape on display as recently as two years ago, and teams may attempt to recapture that by giving him a flier.

    LB Germaine Pratt #97 is still a FA

    It sucked losing Bush.  Here's a LBer (Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year) that could get drafted in round 3 or 4?

      Stefon Diggs is out there.  He had 85 catches last year for the Pats.  I don't think adding a veteran would hurt that group.

        I'll take it a step farther. 4 children with four different women in 2025. That's a lot of baggage and drama for an Organization, Front Office, Coaching Staff and Roster that have their collective shit together.

          Love the signing for Quincy as a replacement. He wasn't a fit for Aaron Glenn's scheme. I imagine Rutenberg is the best guy to maximize his talent.

            he was the 17th overall pick and can play lg or rg and has only missed 2 games since being drafted, that is what i was looking for as i have never heard of him

            Durable, 26 y/o, not a liability.  3yr. 49M for the amount of cash getting thrown around today.  This is good.  Charger fans seem to be good riddance but they are notoriously not known for their football IQ

            Decent run-blocking guards who are wild passpro liabilities can be drafted in the 6th round.  Yes, Zion was a first-rounder a few seasons ago, but they declined his rookie option for good reason --- he is abysmal at one of the two things a guard needs to do in the sport of football.

            The actual question is how much you're paying for whatever skill a player has... and unfortunately this signing is a bad ROI.  If they don't care about passpro, just throw out road-grading rookies, they're always available.

                  While I don’t disagree with you…I’ll give some grace as you know the offensive line especially pass protection needs to function as one cohesive unit.  His partner at left tackle Rashawn Slater was lost for the year in training camp, the next then Joe Alt playing out of position was out halfway through the year and then the chargers ran with Salyer.  Maybe this combination had something to do with his low pass blocking win rate?

                    If he comes back healthy and can start all 17 this was a huge pickup.  This allows you to slow play a day 2 of the draft rookie into the role down the road and not this season.

                            Looks like the Browns have filled 3/5th of the OLine starters in the last week or so. 

                            Left Tackle seems like the move with the first pick, hopefully after moving down.

                              Projected Updated OL 

                              As of now, the Browns projected starting offensive looks significantly different than last year. Given that Berry noted that Dawand Jones has a role in 2026, he gets penciled in as the left tackle for now:

                              • LT Dawand Jones (or a 1st round pick in 2026)
                              • LG Zion Johnson

                                Looks like the Browns have filled 3/5th of the OLine starters in the last week or so. 

                                Left Tackle seems like the move with the first pick, hopefully after moving down.

                                now for something completely different , how about moving up ? Know not at 6, take Styles or if some crazy reason if Reese is there you have to take him @ six, take BPA on the  OL @ 24 and then either before that pick or after BPA WR or visa versa, its time to draft quality or quantity, its not like we will be super bowl contenders.

                                  I really like Styles, but I have no interest in taking him that high. As much as I would love to put him next to Krautbacker, I feel like a non-pass rushing LB that high is a questionable choice, especially considering our needs. I’d rather take an edge guy - you can never have too many pass rushers.

                                    I’m low key happy they resigned Tevin Jenkins. It’s weird that potentially 2 starters on the O-line are named Jenkins.

                                      Makes ya wonder...

                                      Todd Monken's first position coach, he hired was OL coach George Warhop.. Warhop has had a good 2 days..

                                      https://www.dawgsbynature.com/cleveland-browns-coaching-staff/116596/the-browns-new-ol-coach-brings-detail-oriented-approach-back-to-cleveland-george-warhop

                                      connecting more dots..

                                      Bobby Johnson is Warhop's Asst OL coach for the Browns.. 2025_Raiders_at_Commanders_74.jpg.f8362eee48782390a05953120c9f7104.jpg   

                                      Johnson, had a bird's eye view of all the NFL combine OL-men assisting in OL field drills on Sunday

                                      ..Back to FA news..

                                      It looks like whoever plays quarterback for the Browns won't have to face Maxx Crosby in a Ravens uniform twice; Baltimore backed out of the trade that would have cost them two first-round picks.  (failed physical?)

                                        Just got back from band rehearsal to see that we've signed another OLineman.  Very Good!  Even though the Charger guy can only run block, we've made big strides towards opening up the draft board for us.  Still more to do on the OL...and WR remains a huge issue, but we're getting there.

                                        -  I notice that Bitonio, Teller & Njoku are still available.

                                          Cleveland also has the following under contract for the offensive line:

                                          • Zak Zinter
                                          • Luke Wypler
                                          • Kendrick Green
                                          • Jeremiah Byers
                                          • Kingsley Eguakun
                                          • KT Leveston
                                          • Tye Phillips
                                          • Jack Conley

                                          Isn't Dewand under contract?

                                          At any rate, we will keep at least 2 more roster spots for O line.  With our recent issues with Oline, I could see us keeping 11 O linemen heading in to the season.

                                          If everybody had like minds, we would never learn.
