  • What is the health status of Josh Doctson. I see the red flag on him about an injury. So, what's up with that? Anyone know?

    He sustained it just after being informed he was on the Browns radar ....he shook his head so much he tore a ligament in his neck

    OK, I said "Let's look seriously at WR". You are not being serious here. Why can't you be serious for once? Why always fucking around? This is important stuff and you aren't giving it the attention it deserves. You should never ever make light of this subject. How can anyone ever respect anything you say if you can't say anything with any gravitas. What's wrong with you Man?

    (OK, just fucking with you.. 😛 )

    That got a legitimate chuckle out of me.

    2nd to last game of season at Ok. State, Doctson had his left hand in turf & defender fell on left arm putting Doc out rest of game. Tried to play season finally next week with Kansas, caught 1 pass, back out with wrist. Come to find out, Doc broke his left wrist back at Ok. State. Had surgery on left wrist end Nov. but could not get it ready before Alamo Bowl with Oregon 1-2-16 nor could QB Boykin who was suspended. Still found a way to beat Oregon. Soft cast at combine but all reports say he's ready to go..

    A wrist problem should not be totally detrimental to a WR......unless of course it prevents him from catching.

    M. Thomas>Doctson. not a buckeye nerd decision just think Thomas drops nothing & a solid NFL build body vs. a lengthier S. Watkins look in Doctson.

  • 4 that interest me, other than the obvious ones (alphabetically):

    Rashard Higgins

    Kenny Lawler

    Malcolm Mitchell (could be a late 4th round bargain due to injury history)

    Jordan Payton

    Mike

    Fair enough.

  • We had...

    Andrew Hawkins

    Brian Hartline

    Taylor Gabriel

    Marlon Moore

    Terrelle Pryor

    Rannell Hall

    Darius Jennings

    If we are lucky, we'll have...

    Josh Gordon

    Corey Coleman

    Jordan Payton

    Rashard Higgins

    Andrew Hawkins

    Ricardo Louis

    Terrel Pryor

    Seth DeValve

    That is an amazing turn-around in just a couple weeks. This will be a great group of receivers.

  • Not only am I not planning on having Gordon back, will he REALLY fit the mold of the type player this FO & Coaching staff want? I, for one, seriously doubt it.

    Will he stay out of trouble? Learn the playbook? Give 100% on ALL plays? Associate with good people?...I rest my case.

    If Gordon is able to play why wouldn't this staff atleast want him on the roster? Not only have we seen his potential. His contract is really cheap. If he messes up then oh well. But we can't just cut him before anything is 100%.

    I did not say cut him, did I? What I DID was question whether or not he would fit the mold of the type player this FO & Coaching staff wants...that is, high character players who love the game & will give it their all. I haven't seen that yet from JG, so "we'll see".

    Well said Mike! You can't fake passion, especially if a guy keeps choosing marijuana over football. Gordon is always suspended and look no deeper than the company he continues to keep. He recently had another positive test. How many more times do some people need to see history repeat itself with that knucklehead? BTW, the last time we saw a very disinterested Josh Gordon - he joined a 6-4 football team in progress here in 2014. He didn't know the playbook, took plays off, got suspended by the team, and the offense got worse (not better).

    This is the only Josh Gordon reality I continue to see: Urine = You're Out!

    Steve,

    While both those guys have to make changes, neither has the baggage JG has. No comparison.

    We'll just have to wait & see what happens.

    Yes there is a difference but I prefer simple stupidity to team cancer.

    But both attitudes need to be adjusted.

    When Kapernick's name came up, I puked in my own mouth and hoped it didn't happen.

    Griffin, I welcomed. I believe he's a good guy that went through a humbling experience last year. So far I'm seeing pictures of him with his teammates all over town supporting Cleveland and charities. I've seen the Browns drop down in the draft instead of grabbing a franchise QB.

    Grif never bad-mouthed the Redskins, or his coach, once last year. Showed up to every game and was a good teammate.

    I think that attitude has already been adjusted.

  • ALL RG III needs is a QB whisperer. The talent has been there all along. The coaching has not been there in the past. I like our chances.
