2.7 YPC and a TD looks like putting him in a real offense did nothing to improve the YPC. The reality is TR is a bust at #3 overall.

Yep and Bradshaw looks better than Trent.

13 carries for 35 yards. First it was inexperience and a minor knee clean out. Then it was ribs. This year it was bad blocking. Now he's with the Colts playing with a back gaining more yards behind the same line.

I just can't take the excuses for this guy anymore. He isn't special. He's just a guy. We absolutely fleeced the Colts.

And the right side of our line is just HORRIBLE. I can't believe how bad Schwartz looks. He's like a statue.

Calm Down. It was one game. Against the 49ers at home. On a new team, new coach, new playbook... it's been 3 days. Wow

I wonder what Holmgren has to say now, does he still think TR is the 2nd coming of Jim Brown?

JAFBF

Yeah, give it at least another week.

McGahee wasn't too in sync either, though to be fair McGahee was coming off the Couch and hadn't played since November.

all that and he still played like crap

PoeticG I think over time you will find peace with this move. Hopefully the win today helped. I was a staunch Trich supporter that grew to believe he just couldnt live up to what was expected of a number 3 pick. I will however say this. His comments to the fans after the trade were straight up class act. Telling us to remain patient and that the team had something special going. To say that after he was blindside traded is straight up. I admire him for that.

And Bradshaw with only 6 more carries (more were added at the end of the game, they were split evenly most of the game), had 19 for 95 yards 5.0 ypc 1 td longest gain was 27.

Trent's longest gain was 7. I honestly was never impressed in any of his college games, he looked sluggish.

, but it's clear every RB from alabama is overrated due to their always elite oline and blocking TEs.

"I still think we should have gotten more back for him"

Wait....I'm confused....You were never impressed with him, you say he was overrated but think the Browns should have gotten more then a 1st rounder for him?? Is there something higher than a 1st rounder??? How the hell can you get more than a 1st rounder for a guy who obviously should have gone in the 2nd????

The Browns stole Indy B-L-I-N-D

Richardson isn't even the 2nd coming of William Green

Waiting for next year

Let's see.....Browns 5-13 with Trent Richardson 1-0 without him....but the big story..... The Browns better hire a Nanny for Josh Gordon

He's one late night nap away from a total ban

yeah of course there is dickface.

how about a:

1. first and second rounder

2. a first and third rounder

3. a first and 4th rounder

etc.

OR how about this:

1. a first rounder and a player

2. a first rounder a 5th rounder and a player

etc. etc.

man you gotta be the new 'biggest asshole' on the board.

Sheepdog

I would have liked to get another pick for Richardson but if this is all we could get then I will take it. It's better than getting a 2nd rounder. All we can hope for now is that the Colts don't make the playoffs so we are picking in the first half of the draft with their pick.

But you're still one dumbass....it's soooo easy to troll for numbnuts like you...I don't even need to bait the hook... He wasn't worth the 3rd pick in the draft but you want more, maybe he wasn't even the best back in the draft (proven so far) but you "think" they should have gotten more? Next you will be whining like the bitch you are that the Browns didn't get a 1st rounder before they release Weeden...Please...the next time you have a "thought" keep it a secret....You won't look like such a moron when you hit post.

Don't worry sugarbump no one will overtake you as biggest asshole on the board

And I would love to date Heidi Klum...doesn't make it realistic or even wishfull thinking...only a dream. He BARELY had 1st round stats and until he does the scale is tilted the Browns direction. The Browns are LUCKY they got a 1st rounder....I bet you want the Browns to get a 1st rounder for Weeden too right??

Right before they release him right?

I think Trent will get his, he was against the 49ers with 2 days of practice with his team. He got a touchdown(that was handed to him, I admit), and I think he can be a pass catcher in the Colts offense and the balance that they have on offense we will see Trent get his scores and big runs. He's a monster in open field, we all know that, his problem is recognizing the holes and blocking.

Is it wrong to imagine that with a FB like Vickers, Trent would have put up better #'s. And NFL caliber guards?

I'm not saying Trent hasn't been underwhelming, but him being the only weapon on our offense most games teams very easily cancelled him out. And we, as a team, cancelled him out abandoning the run whenever a deficit came about.

Before some of you start celebrating why not wait until week 17 to see who fleeced who.. or even 2-3 years.

We still have to draft what we were compensated for him and find his replacement.

Shouldn't be hard to find one in the draft and we have nailed every back we have ever drafted since 99.

It would be easier to get one in free agency....you know how every big time free agent is just dying to move to that great city on the lake and play for a perennial winner!!! And the Browns won't even have to overpay for him....He will see all those all pro's and future hall of famers and just sprout a wood he'll be so excited!!

i never said he was worth the pick fuckhead.

if you had been around here when that draft happened you would have known that i was screaming for the browns to take claiborne.

and i also never said we should have got more for him.

you smarmed someone with a smart ass comment asking what's higher than a first round pick and i just showed you.

every post you make is condescending to whomever it is and you come off looking like a dick.

go back to where you came from douche. only reason you came here in the first place was because of the TR trade and you could open your stinkin stooler hole.
