Be Prepared To Lose Gipson
-
I think he seems alright...not talking crap or anything.....and he says they are continuing to talk....
I expect if he returns to form, the Browns will work to sign him before the season ends......if he wants #1 money, hell be gone.....but if he has reasonable expectations, we'll sign him.....(he did say they were very close....so Im guessing the Browns said lets see how it goes and then well talk......)...
Here's his interview from today for anyone who's interested....
If Gipson comes back, stays healthy and continues to produce at the level he has been - then he'll certainly be in talks for best safety in the NFL. I'd have no problem paying him Earl Thomas money.

Looks like Eric Weddle will be ufa next year too......sooooooo, IF we cant sign Gip, there's at least one more really good one who will be on the table......

Love some Weddle. And there's at least 1 more really good one named P. Rivers that can come with him. See Ya JM.

Weddle? Crazy enough (in a good way) to be a Brown...
... but I can't get excited about Rivers. Just seems "bad crazy" to me.

"Bad Crazy" is better than a Mentor, than promoted to a "Bridge" Than per Media and Team Reports "Josh, Better than any previous season". Hell we may not need a QB period. Come on Opener at Jets!! (God please get Josh threw camp or we our screwed)

Gipson needs to wake up. This is a guy who clearly needs to fire his agent, because that dude is telling him the wrong stuff. There are so many one year wonders in this league it isn't funny. He was tagged with a 2nd round qualifying offer, which basically says "hey give us a 2, and he is yours". If he was a good safety he would have gotten at least a sniff, but he got nothing. Dude needs to wake up and realize that 1 year that he didn't even stay healthy for doesn't mean he should get Ed Reed cash. Hell even if he manages to stay healthy this year, and have a great year I still wouldn't pay him what "he thinks he is worth".
What ever happened to earning your money? Sad how these kids act these days.

It's not just the players. In the past, there was no way a team would spend a 1st round draft pick on a top tier player who had an injured knee to end the previous season, much less a UDFA with very limited experience. That being said, treatment & rehab are far superior to what they were years ago.
I still think he and/or his agent failed to understand or listen to the sound reasoning for a 2nd round tender, which I thought generous given the circumstances. I like Gipson, but I also think he benefited from playing in an already good defensive unit. He would be exposed far more in a lesser defense. If he goes elsewhere next year, he may learn that.

and we are still talking TC. hopefully he can get back in and contribute and gel again with his fellow team mates and surroundings.
sometimes you don't realize what you have until it is gone.
god, how the fuck do you stop this auto-correct shit? can't type real downright rude stuff anymore without it being replaced with vagina farts.

Is Gipson Earl Thomas 2.0, or Dashon Goldson 2.0? I'm not sure that one season will answer anything, especially if he gets injured.

An NFL player has a finite amount of high earning years and there is zero financial team loyalty, get yours while you can.
