  • Higgins and Louis are garbage.. c'mon people.. really?

  • Ima bite my tongue on the whole Gabe / Hawkins thing...except to say that this is additional proof of poor planning and more signs of a rudderless ship when it comes to foresight and knowing where you're going with this roster...

    In other news.....Corey Coleman should be the slot guy......(which makes me point to the above comment....again)

    My first thought when I saw this thread started was, "Mud not gonna be a happy camper! 😡 " 😁

    Nothin' wrong with flopsy and dropsy. 😉

  • If you haven't read the story on this dude, it's an amazing read on his journey to the Browns. Good luck hombre, he will catch on somewhere I'm sure.

    Well, the depth chart had Pryor and Coleman as the starting WRs....and had Hawkins and Louis as the backups. Of course...what pct. of plays do the Browns (and every other NFL team) use 3 Wideouts. Like half or more? So the #3 guy is really basically a starter in that "slot" role. Higgins would be the one to step up.

    81 Higgins, Rashard 16/5--(6'1") Coleman.Cory (5'11")opps

    15 Alford, Mario SF16--(5'8") 85 Hall, Rannell P/TB--(6'0") Boyce, Josh SF16--(5'11")

    Cutting Hawk sucks to save another 1.5M on a already 100M available cap. ^^this is whats left at slot options. How bout we 1st find a QB that can get the ball out to a 5'7" 180 lbs guys like of Hawk & Gabe..even better draft a 6'1 slot guy in WR-Zay Jones..line him up anywhere & watch him go...I'll get over it, it's a Toledo thing.Good Luck & go get a ring Hawk

    I agree. The release of Hawkins may portend the fact that the Browns still may be in the WR market in the draft. We didn't think so after taking 4 of them last year....but now I see it highly possible that they go WR, perhaps in the first 4 rounds.

    Interesting. Do you think his skills are more that way than like #1 or 2 wideout?

    Does this possibly portend the pickup of a "non-slot" type WR in FA? People mentioned Jeffrey. That could be the type...but I am not so sure he would be the man. If not he...who?

  • Hmmm....I wonder if this means that Mike Williams or Cory Davis are in play at #12 (and Coleman moves to slot).

    I don't think for a moment that Williams would last til 12.

    There would be a lot of griping if they take a WR at 12....given they took a WR in round 1 last year...and given the other desperate needs on this team.

    How do we really know? They didn't play that much. (I know...you will say the reason they didn't play that much is because they are garbage.....hard to argue with that logic)

  • One of these days we'll actually trade players after their peak season rather than watch as they struggle in vain to replicate them.

    Good luck, Hawk...

  • Hawkins always seemed like a great dude and he did some remarkable stuff with us in his first year.

    But his production made this an inevitability.

    Will always dig the guy...

    Yup...pretty high pick for a slot guy......but that's probably where he belongs.

  • No big loss, pun intended 🙂
