    Paul Kruger would be a good start, we need some more linebackers. Kruger would be a starter I'd assume, so we'd have Kruger, DQ, Gocong and Sheard. With Rubin, Taylor and Winn and Hughes down front. What do you guys think?

    You are forgetting JMJ, Acho, Robertson and Fort.

    I think the question does have to be asked: if we are going to a 3-4, along with DQ will any of these holdover LBs fit the bill? Include Gocong because I am not sure his position is secure by any means. Not in my view.

    I also still see Sheard as a DE even in a 3-4.

    So, we all say we need a few LBs. Do we have many of them on hand?

    Personally, I like Kaluka Miava more than any of these guys but that's not to take away from their potential... they just need developed.

  • I will be upset with Kruger over Avril, but honestly, I am just relieved the Browns are at least attempting with a Top 5 FA.... Let's go get Antoine Winfield, Keenan Lewis, Jared Cook, Donald Thomas, Greg Jones and Mike Devito as well.

  • It's just refreshing to hear the browns at least are trying for the top guys in FA this year. I've learned quite quickly to not get my hopes up with the Browns though. If Kruger and Cook come along with a solid second CB (there's a bunch out there) I might actually believe in the Browns for once. But alas only time will tell.

  • The Browns in the past 10 years have been Retards in FA.

    Hopefully they nab Kruger, or Avril and a good CB. Experience is what the team needs as the Browns are extremely young across the board, but our youth is very raw talent...stress "talent". This FA period is certainly an indicator of what direction the Browns will go in the draft.

  • let's go browns big day!!!!!

    There were reports of close to 12 mil, so this would be good.

    There’s another guy named Kruger who’ll be looking to donate some excess year-end money to the Human Fund.

    Per a source with knowledge of the situation, Ravens linebacker Paul Kruger is expected to sign with the Browns after the league year begins. The contract is expected to be in the range of $8 million to $9 million per year.

    The Colts were also reportedly after Kruger.

    Maybe now he can afford a jersey that fits.

  • 8 to 9 mil is pretty reasonable.

  • Sheard is an OLB, make no mistake. The DL rotation for next year is: Taylor/Rubin/Hughes, with Winn as the first off the bench. I don't want Avril - not good enough against the run. Abraham and Freeney are too old.

    I'm glad the Bears already signed Bennett -- they were our major competition for Jared Cook.
