Hillis To Kansas City
-
Wow!!!!! That Hardesty guy must be a stud if we can afford to let Hillis go for peanuts. Can't wait to see him in action

Richardson will be no better than Hillis was
this is just crazy talk.
this is just crazy talk.
How is it crazy talk? They are both 4.5 runners from the SEC who like to work out.
What has Richardson done? And please, save the "HE CAN BENCH 475 POUNDS SO HES AUTOMATICALLY AMAZING!!!!1!" shit.
What has he done on the field? He benefits from being on a completely stacked team and his highlight reels show nothing but him trucking defensive backs who, for the most part, won't even be playing on Sundays. His claims to fame have been
1) breaking arm tackles against a weak Arkansas defense
2) trucking Janoris Jenkins, a CB.
He won't be running over anyone like that in the NFL, and without that trucking ability...he's nothing but a average to below average back. He's a one trick pony who's trick won't work on the next level.
But..but..but... he can work out a lot!
I'm awesome, and I fuck dolphins. Ghoolie 12/2/2012: I have absolutely no skills, training or pride -

Yep, Trent Richardson's predecessor at Alabama....who happened to win the Heisman...and was drafted 28th overall gave the Saints this amazing production last year: 122 rushes; 474 yards; 3.9 ypc......just sayin'.....but, not to worry we have another early round SEC RB on the roster....
Heckert can always rely on his SEC boi, Montario Hardesty, who he traded a third round pick and two fifths to move up and select in the second.....Montario has given the Browns a stunning stat sheet: 88 rushes; 266 yards; 3.0 ypc; 19 long; 0 TDs....thank goodness the Browns got rid of the malcontent white boi Hillis...that "locker room cancer" over a three million dollar one year contract...makes perfect sense.....bring Richardson home Heckert!

Nice move Browns. Now we have to use one of those cherished draft picks on a roster spot, rather than re-signing a proven player. We saved all those draft picks by passing on the RG3 deal (which i was glad to see), and now we throw a pick away.
This team is on an endless treadmill.

You can say the same thing about any other player in college. Most days they play against shit players who will never be in the NFL and have highlights loaded with them performing against those players. But alot of those guys still turn out great in the NFL.

I agree we shouldn't take him, but you're missing a lot about the guy tim. He's nowhere near a one trick pony. All scouting reports rave about his elusiveness, speed to the hole, blocking ability and north to south along with lateral quickness and incredible breakaway speed. For being his size and workout warrior, the dude gets to the edge with ease. Also, you're completely undermining how well the guy ran at Alabama. That offense was predicated on the run and although you're right most guys aren't going to play on sunday the SEC from top to bottom is the best league in college football.
The only real knock on the guy is that he doesn't have the best hands out of the backfield which as we've seen is a pivotal part of the crap we called offense last year. So yea, I don't think he's the guy to draft but this guy is going to be a monster in the NFL.

Let us wait to see what the FO's plan is regarding Running Backs before we burn them shall we? If we get Ben Tate would you guys be excited?

If we got Ben Tate, not offering Hillis anything will make sense. If we draft Richardson it will make sense. Hell if we draft a RB in the first 2 rounds it will make sense. Till then it does not make sense that the Browns did not at least match the Redskins offer of 3 million. Makes zero sense.
Ruining threads since 1897. -
Nope...since Texas has already said they wont do it for a third rounder...so now its a 2nd and 3rd...and everyone saying RBs are a dime a dozen then why even offer a 3rd when everyone says you can get a ray rice in the 4th round

It will make 0 sense only if we go into 2012 without any decent RB. Last year the stunt that Hillis and his agent pulled might have really pissed the coach and the FO. I'm not going to burn them for this.

Baloney. Hell with Hillis. He got the gigantic big head, and wanted to cash in. The Browns TRIED.
But Hillis and his agent(S) blew it hugely. Good for the Browns - Hillis burnt his bridges, now he had to go somewhere.
GOOD RIDDANCE ! Now, we need a rb that is a TEAM PLAYER.. @@
********************************************
"Tony Zarella, from WOIO in Cleveland, is reporting the Browns are preparing to offer Hillis a three year incentive-laden contract. Zarella reported last November the Browns offered Hillis a three year 16.5 Million dollar contract that they just took off the table. Peyton is a tremendous talent for the Browns despite all the drama surrounding the back from Arkansas."

Oh my God we didn't sign back an injury prone, pre-Madonna who allianated himself with the whole organization!!! Whatever will we do? God forbid that we think that our front office has a plan that would include replacing him! Everyone knows that if you don't replace an average running back within 5 hours of letting him go that you have no back up plan!!!

This. We offered him more money and he scoffed at it. Dumbass.

Hillis won't get 50 yards when the Browns play the Chiefs this year - the Chiefs OL can't block the Browns DL.

You are right about one thing it won't be 50 yards it's gonna be 150 or more.
Maybe you thought we had a stout run defense last year, jokes on you son.

Yes, because they are the exact same people. Jesus Christ.

Wow, this is new, people bitching about a player they don't like that isn't here anymore... where have I heard that?

Good riddance.
6 months and you'll be eating your words.
This franchise is so ass-backwards it's ridiculous, and the fanbase is the same way. It's no wonder we're always in the cellar.

I liked Hillis, I enjoyed watching him play, but he shoulda signed a damn deal before the season last year. Take what you offered and play for that third contract ... you never know what is going to happen once the season started. Shit happened, and he was fucked. Had he signed before the season he coulda been the king of Cleveland and taken care of his family for life.
Oh well, It's not like it's Jim Brown walking out that door.
Would I rather trade a second for Ben Tate than re-sign Hillis? Yes. Will it happen? Hellifiknow ... but I don't feel any worse about the Browns after this move.

You know what will make me feel worse Z? We're in year three of a rebuild. This is H & H's make or break year. They had damn well better be right with the moves- non moves they're making. IMHO the fans in general, and this fan in particular isn't going to put up with another 4-12 suckful season. Hillis rushes for 1,200 yards and RGIII wins offensive rookie of the year- I'll personally lead the charge to ride 'em out of town on a rail.

Word ive been hearing is that Houston wants are 22nd pick for Tate,or to swap 1sts 22 for 26 and us throw in a 3rd or 4th round pick...
Richardson is a great back I dono who gave that lil report on him but his biggest weakness is his breakaway speed he has great hands outta the backfield..Hes just not gonna run away from anyone at the next level hes gonna get his yards but he wont be a big homerun threat..
As far as Hillis is concerned wish we could have kept him simply because were not in position to lose talent at any spot when we have so many needs, we will have to address the position in the draft or u cant count on a 4-12 season again..
