    Hey i agree with Browns149... taking a look at this guy cant hurt. And if he ends up being worth a roster spot on any team, maybe it might be a little more enticing for him to come to a team like Cleveland where the team is young and the possibility for playing time is greater, as opposed to going to a veteran team where hes going to ride the pine alot more because he cant crack the starting lineup. Just my 2ยข

    !!!!hopefully i'll be alive when it happens!!!!

        I watched all of his games at UF, he is defiantly a special player. Wouldn't hurt to bring him in for a Special Teams spot. Hell, he's even blocked a few punts. Worth a tryout, IMO.

          If they were unwilling to sign Cedric Benson, why would they sign Demps?

                Benson has atleast 4 arrests in the last 4 years . And was suspended for such activity just last year. He's one dui or punch away from a 4-6 game suspension

                    Sorry, this argument about once a player hits 30 they are no longer viable is just as bad as the never signing a free agent one. What's the difference in signing a big name F/A QB and drafting a 28-year-old one? Cap-space? Browns have tons of that.

                    Anyway. They could keep BJAX and sign Demps. The Browns' running backs are made of glass.

                    ...Maybe all of them except for Richardson.

                    Trent Richardson IS the man of steel, Brother. He could very well continue playing on the knee that's bothering him most likely, but, his legs are his vehicle to success in this league... not a one hit wonder like a Hillis or a Jerome Harrison or William Green. No, a long term career that will rival that of Jim Brown's career. I know it's a little premature but whatever, that's my opinion and that's what I see happening. Having the surgery before the season is just right. T-Rich doesn't need reps. He's a bonifide beast, your quintessential "Hulk in the Hoodie"! This is great for us that he's out right now, that means 1) He's fresh. 2) There is very little tape on him from the pros, from what he's evolved into since the BCS Championship Game. 3) He's going to catch a lot of teams off guard and it's going to be awesome to watch them try and scramble all frantic to try and catch up to Trent as he's long gone for 6... I could continue on to six if you'd like but I think you get the point.

                      If he were washed up he wouldn't have signed a contract with the Packers.

                                Yeah. It's real, real premature to begin to compare Trent Richardson's not-yet-begun career to the greatest running back of all time
