  • Ward is going to demand big money, probably top dollar for his position.. knowing what we know about Banner I just don't see him paying it.

    maybe a lot comparatively speaking but I think we can get it done for 5-6 mill a year.

    I think it will be more like 7 million

  • We aren't paying anybody and we have some of the most money available to spend. There should be NO problem in signing every major contributor the Browns have had the past 10 years and still be way under the salary cap. There is NO excuse not to bring back the little talent that we do have. It's really up to the FO, do they think that they will continue to fill the stadium trotting out these fucking backups year after year? If that's the case I won't be going anymore. Browns need to quit being cheap and keep our guys. You build from the draft but you aint building shit if you let the talent walk after their rookie contract. Especially players like Mack and Ward...

  • Don't forget that we can franchise one. I think we keep Ward but let Mack go. He seems to be full of himself and to be honest, is overrated. He can't run block to Save his life and is an ok pass blocker.

    Hey, we agree. 🙂 The Browns are way under the cap- we only have 5 guys making big money- Thomas, Haden, Jackson, Kruger, and Bryant. They can afford both easily, we don't have a Peyton Manning qb salary to worry about- yet.

    I read an article by Grossi that he sounds pretty certain Banner won't bring DQ back, I will give it its own thread.

    That wouldn't upset a lot of people. DQ makes a lot of tackles, but he's hardly an elite LB.

    No but you can't expect every player to be elite. If you have elite players mixed in with a bunch of good players is not a bad thing.

  • Who does DQ have on both sides for support? Mingo, Groves (hurt), Freddy (overated) Kruger? He might have better run stoppage if the other guys don't get. Wasn't he good at the run stop a few years ago? Granted he is what 31 now, we need a couple of solid guys at the LB positions and a better game scheme. I still think DQ is good and worth a re-done contract.

  • I like DQ for his leadership and he is pretty good. More importantly if we draft an MLB to replace Robertson DQ is exactly the kind of guy I want taking the new guy under his wing.

  • I believe we'd be best off returning both players. Mack is going to want a contract similar to Eric Wood's, whereas Ward's contract should be more team-friendly.

    On Mack-

  • fuck mack, keep ward no matter what.

    and as far as DQ is concerned, whoever brings up the fact of continuity within a franchise should look at him as our only true veteran captain on defense. sometimes that's worth keeping around.

    dickheads.

    clappy new year!
