Rumor: Rubin may be the next cut
-
I see him as being in the same situation as DQ, with the possible difference that I don't know if he's owed a roster bonus and if not can we try to trade him? Both solid, neither pro-bowl calibre, and $16m on two players like that is a bit much.
He's solid, but unspectacular and for $7m a year we can probably find better. By all accounts he seems better suited to a 4-3 DT than 3-4 DE position.
-
In my opinion, Rubin has performed at a higher level than DQ did in his time here....but he and DQ were the most senior members of this team I believe (once Dawson left).
Maybe this regime feels it wants to leave those who have been here through so much losing behind....expecially when it would cost a lot to keep them.
-
makes sense. no real surprise.
-
He can go. Winn and Hughes have played better at times, and they are younger and getting paid much less... I'd prefer a trade him, but with his massive contract that would be difficult.
-
Rubins our best lineman, still better than Taylor...let's be clear about that. He would have gotten us something real good in a trade. But now we're gonna cut him and get nothing.

were saving money to make a run at LeBron

Yep. Farmer sucks, get rid and lets get new guys in.

well in his defense the decision on Rubin should have been made last year and he wouldn't have been the signal caller on that one. I mean now, what can they do? The joos in the FO say we don't want to pay vets like Rubin and DQ, so that's that. Rubin I at least understand letting walk cause we have backup at his position. DQ I will never understand. And what these two losses mean for the lockeroom is a big question. Guys will start questioning being here and playing their asses off. Stil salty though that we're not gonna get shit for Rubin. There are teams out there that are "desperate" for a 3-4 NT of Rubins caliber. Even 4-3 teams would be pickled shit to have him, he's one of the best down lineman in the NFL. I know Indy will be all over his ass. Indy picks up Rubin and that defense just became potential top 5.
-
I think Wynn/Houghes/A.Bryant can fill that gap pretty well... he is more of a run stuffing 4-3 DT than he is attacking 3-4 DE...multiple front philosophy aside, he is not worth 7Mill considering the other guys we have to rotate in already.

yep I was screamin for them to trade him last year. Was told not worth it. Man just shows how stupid banner and Lombardi was
-
well we haven't cut him yet.
there's a march 11th (?) cap hit, after that a lot of teams will be resigning players, so maybe they're just waiting. i mean mack or ward haven't been taken care of yet either.
calm down marys.
-
With the amount of cap space the Browns have they should just eat his contract and if they want to get rid of him trade him away. We have plenty of depth, so I'm not worried about losing him, but I don't like the idea of cutting a player that has decent trade value on him. He is worth at least a 3rd or 4th round pick.

Same for DQ, we could have gotten a second rounder for DQ, at the least.
