Brian Hartline is now a Cleveland Brown.

I like Hartline. Just hope we can avoid the "back Home" crap this time.

Clevfan4life

not hating it....but meh. Not exactly the FA splash I was hoping they'd make. But yeah solid player and solid value

Either Hartline is easily impressed or Deflip could sell stink to a monkey... What did he say, "The QB throwing to ya will either be a 35 year old retread that's won 17, count Em 17 total games in his career, or a 2nd year Qb that hasn't won any... But that's if he gets a ride back from rehab.

He's good for two TD's a season on average and is an Ohio native named Brian-sure why not.

Johnny's, Mike Evans without Size??

Westside Steve

Glad to have the guy.

No reason to dump Austin if we don't have to.

I agree Steve. Austin may not make the team, but I would rather see one of the youg guys bump him off the team then simply not sign him.

It would probably cost us 6million if he did make the team .......I think we can rebuild him

MLD Woody

Much better signing than Ginn would be

Darren, I see what you did there..."Steve. Austin".... 6 million dollar man. I can hear the bionic sound effect. Priceless!

The Gipper

Possession receiver really. Which is fine and needed....but not going to replace the dynamic that Josh Gordon gives you. Few if any WRs could do that. The speed will still have to come from Gabriel, Hawkins, Benjamin.

Dane Sanzenbacher is still out there. Another sure handed guy.

I think it's a great start. The Browns NEED a get-open-fast wr.

Speed guys that can get downfield... that takes a few more seconds of time,

than a guy who can get off the los and make things easier on a qb to

get rid of the ball for a completion.

I don't know that Hartline is that "get open fast wr". Maybe I am wrong. Maybe my "scouting report" on him is in error. He is a guy that necessarily has that burst. Quick perhaps, more Wes Welker/Edelman/Brian Brennan/Joe Jurevicious/ precise route runner.

Am I off base? Or am I stereotyping him because he is white?

Avoid it by only dressing him for road games?

Love me some Sanzenbacher...

Did you say he can't jump?

His fiance will look good in the new, more vibrant, orange.

Looks like a bank roll disappeared from his right hand when he touched her...

Maintenance fee?
