Bosa

The Browns Board

  • I'm thinkin forget it. Bosa doesn't seem, to me, to be a fit. The Browns are building an

    UPBEAT TEAM, and Bosa, while talented, is more a loner, more about himself, sulking

    type. and, I don't see his skills as being all that outstanding. He can play... when he

    wants to?

    Nah. The Browns are building an outstanding lockerroom - adding prima donna drama seems dumb.

  • Loved joey as a buckeye but I'm dissapointed in him now. Can't say I'm eager to bring that kind of attitude to the team.

  • I'd offer Phillys first rounder and a 3rd rounder. This guy is a tremendous talent who is smart and works his tail off. This will be a small blip that nobody will remember in two years.

  • Judging by the reactions on this board, I'm assuming none of you have actually bothered to do any sort of research into this situation at all.

    Also...no, I don't want Bosa. Didn't want him then, don't want him now.

    But he's far from being in the wrong whatsoever. The Chargers are a joke of an organization and are fucking themselves over yet again.

    Yup, yup and yup....

    Bosa is not asking for anything every 2nd and 3rd overall pick has gotten since the current CBA...

    SD is simply striking a posture they have struck with every pick they've made since the current CBA. Prior to Bosa their highest pick was at #11 overall.

    In the end SD will cave...

    Well, you also have to consider that it is his agent that is driving the bus on this holdout. As others have noted, the Chargers apparently take a position on the money contrary to what other teams take, and that has fueled a duel perhaps between agent and SD FO. A stare down contest to see who blinks first.

    While it doesn't help, I don't think an instinctual player like Bosa will be missing a lot if he misses a few days...or a week of training camp.

    Yeah TC, I know exactly what the holdup is. The bonus money is guaranteed, in his case $17 million. Looks like Joey wants to buy an oceanfront mansion and a couple Lamborghinis NOW, not in a couple years. You'd think the Chargers would want to make their top pick happy.

  • Sure why not. First rounders are hit or miss anyways.

    Money up front is one of two acceptable options from Bosa's perspective.

    Kind of, but not really.

    Bosa wants the same contract that every single player has gotten at the #3 pick since the new CBA, and the Chargers are refusing to give in. He either wants his bonus money up front, OR he wants offset language removed from his contract. Whatever he chooses to do with his money is his choice, but the fact of the matter is - why should he have to take a lesser contract than any other #3 pick has?

    The Chargers are simply being the Chargers - a shittily run organization of penny-pinching half-wits. I'm no Bosa apologist by any means, I don't believe he's all that good. But dude isn't asking for anything other than the status quo.

  • Nothing I read in this thread surprised me.

  • Awesome... we worry about stuff like that...

  • Joe thomas and bosa playing on same team would send ghoulie into dab heaven.

    better of spinning yarn?

  • I give this trade about a .0001% chance in hell of happening. It would go against virtually all of our new management principles, and I get the feeling that we're stockpiling picks to be in the running for a QB next year just in case RG III doesn't pan out like we hope. I believe we'll need all of the picks PLUS some if we're going to move up as far as I think we'll need to, and even then, there is NO guarantee that we can get the QB we want...no matter how many picks we have. If Deshawn Watson has as good of a year as I think he will, and a team that is in desperate need of a QB is sitting at one...there's a zero percent chance a trade will happen.

    Still, if a team like the Titans this year (who had their QB) gets the first pick, it would be an arms race to move up, and we'll need as many picks as one can muster to secure the trade up. Now, will there be other QB's to draft next year? Of course, and maybe a guy will come out of nowhere to knock off Watson as the number 1 choice...but I doubt it.

    Now that we have all of the LOGIC out of the way, I would be remiss to think that this trade for Bosa wouldn't be the craziest thing to happen to our team in quite some time. I mean, can you imagine getting one of the top rated pass rushers on our team to play with Nassib, Ogbah, Bryant, and Kruger? Oh, and the fact that he played at OSU makes it THAT much more of a dream for many fans.

    If what I read about Bosa's situation is true, then I don't understand why the Chargers are being dicks. Why should Bosa accept less than other people? I don't get it. And I wish Bosa's mother would just keep out of it.

    Perhaps I'd feel better about the potential for trading for the guy if he REALLY wanted to play for us, but I remember him saying something negative about our franchise months ago. Maybe it wasn't that big of a deal...I don't remember...but I don't recall him WANTING to come here, and who can blame the guy.

    Still...even I have to admit it would send shockwaves through our team and fan base.

    You were unnecessarily optimistic given that a trade deadline passed yesterday afternoon.

    It all starts with attitude, and Bosa has a bad one when it comes to Cleveland.

    He acts like he's too good for the Browns, and the prick hasn't even taken a single snap as a pro.

    He can eat a bag of dicks.

    I can't disagree with you either.

    Good to great athleticism coupled with negative attitude=failure. Trade is out of the picture & I have no complaints.
