    Having Byrd and Ward would be sick. But honestly I think Gipson played alright as the season went on.

      Given those numbers you have 41M at minimum, probably closer to 43-45. Then there's also bonuses ect. that will be paid out on top of the money that we have to have allocated for the draft. You do all that and you put us in real trouble next year when salaries go up for everyone and then we got to start restructuring and cutting solid players. this isnt the way to get better.

      Dude we've been aweful for about 15 years.

      Next year we would plat for the Superbowl. I'm so tired with losing. If they can just give us 1 great year, i'd sign every day.

      If you believe 5 overpriced free agents are going to take us to the promised land, you're just being ignorant. Free Agents dont always work the best for teams. Let's ask the Eagles and the "Dream Team." Sort of need a team to gel, and if you're blowing up and re-building in free agency every couple of years, it's never gonna work. Also, not likely to win a Superbowl in year 1 with a rookie HC/GM and either a rookie QB or a new starting QB like Hoyer.

        Free agency works best for teams that are one or two players away from Super Bowl contention. That's not the Browns. Still, I'd like to see them sign Asamoah because I think we could really use two guards and we could get another in the draft. Ditto for ILB, and maybe a CB or WR. The rest should come through the draft.

            What's wrong with you buddy ? You frustrated or something ? If you're confortable losing games after games years after years, well i guess what everybody say about Cleveland is right. They're just losers as sports fans and city. I'm not from Cleveland. Not even from the us. In my country, we're educated to be kind and polite. I guess yours parents forgot that when they raised you.

            So stay clam amigo, i don't give a shit about you. I'm here to talk ball. If you don't like it, get outta here, or at least, be quiet.

              Mik talks like that to everyone he first meets here. Don't take it personally and it won't bother you. 🙂

                  thank you.

                  all these guys/kids/shemales coming on here telling us to spend all our money in FA, love JF and if you don't like it you are being abusive with your comments cuz you are a naysayer.

                  sorry, mike. not drunk. if that's all you got to disregard my opinion then fine, go with that. we'll see who hits more on their own mock drafts in the end.

                  can i call you a BR slouch when everything you've said since the end of the 2013 season will be proven wrong? yeah i'm a drunk and you're a journalist.

                    So you're all in on one and done? The Eagles tried that- signing Asomugha and every other high priced FA they could- too bad it didn't work. We paid Kruger a ton of money- so how's that working out? It's nuts to spend every dollar of your cap room unless you're a certain SB contender- and the Browns are far from one. BTW, just Mack $10 million, Byrd another $10 million (at least) and probably Ward (around $8 million), and we've already shot 1\2 the Cap room.

                    Yup, and when those high priced back-loaded contracts come due, you either have to ask them to restructure, or cut them. The Cowboys can't afford DeMarcus Ware @ $13 million. And no, the Browns aren't going to pay that kind of money on a DE who's 31 years old. Just wait and watch what happens to the Broncos in a year or two when Von Miller is off his rookie contract- they have a roaster loaded with big buck contracts- Manning, Clady, Cromartie, and Welker for starters. I smell a major dismantling coming.
