OMG! I didn't realize a VERIFIED Espn reporter is totally credible!! LMAO
Actually, they are. The list of verified news personnel is perpetually curated on social media sites for this exact reason.
I get that you're old, but at least plead ignorance when it comes to that there newfangled social mediums. Things are different nowadays, pop pop.

My experience is that today's media has far less credibility than in the past. NFL Network & others actually posted the Browns' re-signing of Jordan Cameron just before he signed with Miami. That's just ONE example. You & I simply chose to disagree. I can tolerate that. What I have a hard time tolerating is your arrogant, know it all attitude, & lack of respect for others. I find your penchant for childish insults & name calling almost humorous, but then I just consider the source. As we used to say in the Army, you wouldn't make a pimple on a good man's ass.

I have a hard time tolerating irrational and illogical thinking, so I guess we can call it even.

OK, we'll call it even & let's both understand that we won't always agree OR disagree but we both can do so in a more civil fashion, so how about we shake hands & move forward with no hard feelings.

F-U.
Honestly, I'm a little bummed that he didn't get traded to Denver or another playoff bound team.. JT has been such a great player his entire career and a class act; he deserves to win something, and he sure as shit isn't going to win with the Browns anytime soon.
In a way, he sort of reminds me of the horse from "Animal Farm". He'll be loyal to the Browns cause until he physically can't play anymore, then we'll ship him off to the glue factory in Jacksonville or Oakland or San Francisco for like a 4th rounder or something.
That really worked out well for Phil Dawson. Gonna end his career on another dumpster fire team in another city. And SF ain't all it's cracked up to be.

Joe Thomas is not an elite run blocker. Id say hes an average at best run blocker on a team who that has to run the ball to be competitive.

He's ranked #2 run blocker in the league.....again.....
He's a good,not average, run blocker and an elite pass blocker.
lets just say it.....He's elite....across the board.....none better
Baloney. Just last year, he was the best run blocker. Give the rest of us a break from the nonsense already.
This year #2....must be slipping.......
Trade Joe Thomas crowd = Looney.
Omg.....I agree......miracles DO happen.....

Agreed - Joe is no roadgrader, but I figure there is no roadgrader in the NFL,
who can also do what Joe does. Surely the abilities are mutually exclusive.
TC...
Is it wrong to think that there is a lot more unverified reporting these days? That second sources are optional and the need to be first often trumps the need to be right?

Today? None I can think of, but over time?
Munoz... Ogden... Pace... Jones... All were in the same class as Joe as a pass blocker and all were also road graders.

If we gave up JT + a 3rd, for Denver's 1st and 2nd - I would be in the crowd of torches and pitchforks for Farmer's head.
Earlier report said we wanted 1st + Shaq Barrett, something like that is probably closer to the truth of what we would have taken for JT.

If they thought Denver would part with one of their starting OLB'ers, and a stud too, in the middle of a SB hunt? OUr team is run by factual nitwits. No business being around any football operations whatsoever.

The Browns have enough overall talent to be a playoff contender. They are missing a few key pieces.
The Browns problems are in the FO and coaching....not the on field talent.....except the most important position: QB

um no they don't. Seriously. No they don't. They've got a few players that deserve honorable mentions

I'm hoping the broncos called, and ray said "we want a first...and a second..." "OK" "...and then throw in your linebacker as well..." "umm..." "...and give us a 4th while you're at it"
Just to fuck with the broncos. Because the alternative - that he was seriously considering trading JT - is a bit troublesome. You can trade just about anyone on this team, but trade JT and there will be a full scale revolt.

That was just wrong, Zombo.

You know what they say about sun shines and dogs asses. And you, my friend, are a huge dog's ass

As much as I love Joe he's not getting any younger. A first and a second next year would be a nice prize. Next year Denver starts over.
Assuming, of course, that whoever the GM is next year doesn't pull a ray farmer on us.

Talent evaluation wise at the beginning of the year....yes, they do. But a few things have occurred: Injuries have diminished a few good players......like Joe Haden.
And bad coaching begets bad playing. Its like a movie.....you can have some of the greatest acting talent up on that screen, but if the writing for that movie is piss poor (say GM) .....and the directing of those great actors is piss poor (coaching)....you have a bad movie. Great actors cannot cure it.
Like some of these:
