    Word is Travis Benjamin is out of Cleveland and heading to San Diego. Sad to see him go. Watched him grow over the years. Cleveland shouldve resigned him. Thoughts?

      It sucks to see him go, but it's completely understandable. He served his time for four years on shitty teams and under a complete trainwreck of a front office, and probably wants to play for a contender at this point. I wish him luck (except when he plays the Browns, of course).

      Browns F.O. has burned most of its bridges with its near constant mismanagement, so they're going to have a difficult time retaining quality FA's until they actually get some winning seasons under their belt and show progress. This team rebuild is going to be mostly draft-driven for the near future.

          A contender? You mean the team picking above us in the draft, that has the reigning champs in their division? Yeah, I can definitely see them making a run next year.

          I would like to have kept him, at the right money. We drafted him, developed him, and he's a decent 2/3 receiver and PR. But, those guys are not so hard to replace. I *really* want us to keep schwartz though.

            He's replaceable. I'm glad he had a nice season and is going to get a good contract. But he's a little small, a little fragile and he isn't going to get faster as he gets older. Just a part. But a part that now has to be replaced. Farmer's damage to this team will continue to haunt us for awhile I am afraid.

              san diego is no contender BUT they do have the best weather and the best looking women in the US.

                  EXACTLY. Getting a bit older, he can still play fast in their weather... btw, he lived in Florida... went to Miami.

                  He'll do well in the hot weather. But good luck to him, they offered him a contract he couldn't refuse, and

                  the Browns have other needs and couldn't match it. He was a round 4 pick back then, he can be replaced.

                    The Browns' No. 1 and No. 2 receivers are currently Brian Hartline and Terrelle Pryor. Jim Tressel must be so proud.

                          Hue was the new OC when the Bengals decided not to retain him, so maybe there's bad blood. But, like Benjamin, replaceable.

                                Marvin Jones and Josh Gordon starting, we will be drafting the #3 guy.

                                It will feel funny drafting a WR. That will play.

                                    Oh don't be so cup half full. Dismantalytics tells us to let him go and bring in another retread known by the new coach. πŸ˜‰

                                    Besides we don't have QB who can throw to the fastest player in the NFL. He'll just outrun the underthrow. πŸ˜†

                                        Southern California or Cleveland, OH?

                                        that's a real tough choice

                                        Actually, it is. In a study about lifestyle, Cleveland beat San Diego in like 11 out of 12 categories.

                                        This included things like cost of living, crime rate, housing costs, congestion, unemployment, education ....Cleveland even beat SD in sport team success.

                                        San Diego won 1 category: milder weather.

                                        (and Cleveland fared the same vs. LA...except the part about sports teams)

                                          exactly.

                                          san diego is no contender BUT they do have the best weather and the best looking women in the US.

                                          I am not sure about the women. Perhaps they simply have the most scantily clad, most botoxed women. That was not part of the study.
