    I basically want to hear from Manziel on the first day of camp saying he's back and ready to concentrate on football, then nothing at all from him until the exhibition games in the summer. I want to hear from *everybody else* how great he's doing, and see no pictures of him on anything inflatable. Is that so unrealistic? πŸ™

    The first part is totally realistic, he will tell us how he had changed and is ready to do what's necessary to be successful. I doubt that the second part is realistic though. He will more than likely get wasted at a Hinder reunion show and take a fat shit on the sidewalk in front of the Agora.

    Its all regurgitated Bullshit, because theres no news coming out of NFL so its safe to rewrite crap. The "source" a friend of a friend crap is nonsense. Maziel's a hot topic, and they are putting their spin to sell articles.

    Especially in April you have to assume that most headlines are just pot-stirring bullshit, but the Browns pursuing Bradford rumor has been floating around ever since the philly trade. At some point you have to wonder if there is any fire to go along with the smoke.

    I agree that it's probably just speculation, but part of me is still afraid that the Browns, for some damn reason, actually want Bradford.

    I think we have could cause to have some fear being Browns fans for some time. I just feel that rumor wanting Bradford for so long this story is basically same but with creative twist.

    .@BusterSkrine on #Manziel: I think he is going to be a good Quarterback & I don't think he lost the trust of everybody in the locker room.

  • A 1st rounder for a QB who's missed 31 games in 5 seasons with a passer rating of 79 and a massive contract.

    I'd give up a 4th and that's it.

  • The article said Manziel and a 3rd for Bradford??

    If that's the case, count me in...

  • Why the fuck didn't we go after Nick Foles if he was available?

    Manziel and a 2nd or 3rd rounder straight up for Foles instead of Sam Bradford.

  • How do you know they didn't???????

  • Man, I remember when I actually used to like the off season.

  • most of the stuff coming out is being put out as either a smoke screen or something to fuel a rumor that will be used to make phone rings pre-draft.

    chip kelly better stir up something because his ass is sitting on the hottest seat in the NFL right now.

    and btw i like bradford but not as a brown. manziel for bradford straight up.....maybe but i'd rather wait to see what the kid has. i know it might cost us draft day trade value but that trade would have to be for something else other than a crippled-ass QB.

    I would swap Manziel for Bradford straight up but I wouldn't give up anything else.

  • I usually do not buy into the speculation, but there is a guy I work that is very good friends with a prominent Cleveland sportscaster, that the talks are happening. They are not sure the pieces.

  • you have to understand that these are the same people that said the browns were going to lose a first round draft pick because of the farmer texting incident.

    i'll believe it when i see it. until then, i call bullshit.

    True man, I agree, I am just saying what was told to him from a good friend.

    Combine the way Chip has been wheeling and dealing with the QB-quest Farmer has been assigned and there is no telling who or what may be on the proverbial table.

  • I cannot wait until Manziel gets out of rehab and shuts up everybody... which probably won't work since everyone wants to bash the kid. It's gay. Manziel wasn't supposed to play last year, yet he did, since Hoyer chocked went it came crunch time, Manziel was thrown to the wolves. Give the fucking kid a chance to prove himself.

    He will be fine when he's not looking over his shoulder at a pouty face cry baby as Brian Hoyer. Win or go home. The same will be for Manziel if he can't get it in the pros. But he should be given a fair chance. Get the kid some weapons and lets see what he's got. We haven't even scratched the surface of what Manziel can do come gametime. I for one, cannot wait.

  • the kid was a wasted draft pick. what nfl team has a year to throw away on a kid who doesn't give a crap about anyone but themselves, doesn't put in the time and looks like a 3rd stringer at best? that's not even mentioning the media circus and obnoxious fans that came with him. you think that might have had something to do with hoyer choKing?

    it'd be great if somehow he pulls open his jersey and there's a big S under it, he grows 2" taller and actually has the capacity to learn the playbook and read defenses.................

  • I have been & still am a Manziel fan. He has a passion for football & I want to see him succeed. Has the kid made mistakes? YEAH! Did I make those type mistakes at his age...oh YEAH!

    The kid is in rehab, so I'm with PG on this. Let's give Johnny a fair chance & see what happens. Who knows how his Browns' team mates & FO deal with him, but as a Browns' Fan, I'll support whatever decision(s) they make.

  • The kid will be nothing more than a footnote on some future board game. Sooner the Browns move on, the better.

    Rumor of course.

    OK, read it. Mr. Farmer, I have one suggestion to you. Go watch the play Bradford blew out his ACL against the Browns last preseason- and every other time he's done so- a few hundred times. Get back to me and tell me with a straight face you think the second coming of KiJana Carter or Lawyer Tillman is worth Manziel and a first round pick.
