    Its only baffling if you assume the Browns didn't try to keep Pryor. We know they did, but I suspect the agent is asking for way too much money. However, I still hope they do sign him because then you can do this:

    WR1: Pryor

    WR2: Britt

    Slot: Coleman

    Coleman would be an excellent slot receiver.

    What a weird move .....

    the superbowl champs have been more active than the 1-15 team in FA so far ....Gilmore is a huge pick up for them

    I guess it's more baffling to me because Britt is markedly mediocre, at near 29 years old to get $17mil guaranteed is Dwayne Bowe-esque head scratching.

    Seeing as this was almost dollar for dollar the deal I thought TP should get (seriously, check out my comment in the TP thread), that would be mean keeping TP would result in having $40+ million guaranteed in the following

    Kenny Britt

    Terrelle Pryor

    Corey Coleman

    Yikes..

    1000 yards under Keenan and Goff was pretty good and maybe they see him as the veteran presence in the WR room?

    like Jefferson, some FA's don't want to play for a 1-15, continually losing team.

    Maybe there should only be one team in the NFL - so nobody has to have a losing season

    and make some young yuppies pout that they don't get participation trophys unless their team

    goes to the superbowl.

    I didn't see this one coming.

    At least he's over 6 foot.

    WTF, buying scraps again. IF this is with Pryor is meh ok. If it's instead of Pryor someone needs fired today. 1) We have to demonstrate willingness to pay players to keep them 2) 1000 yards 5 TD's is Britts career best , it's Pryors floor in first year a a receiver. I expected better I really did.

    Pretty solid for a #2 on the outside. If that's not what he is for us then this is silly.

    He could also be considered a replacement for Hawkins.

    Pryor - 77 catches, 1004 yards, 4TDs (with a carousel of mediocrity throwing the ball)

    Britt - 68 catches, 1002 yards, 5TDs (with a carousel of mediocrity throwing the ball)

    Roughly the same age, height, weight, etc.
    I'm pretty sure they would rather have kept Pryor, but a very similar player on what we all would have been happy to keep Pryor on isn't something to cry about.

    Has Britt had any off the field issues lately?

    I remember him getting suspended a lot when he played for the Titans.

    Bar fights and stuff.

    This is an underwhelming signing, I would like it better if we are able to keep Pryor.

    Reformed character isn't he, at least I recall reading that on occasions last year

    How underwhelming and "So Browns".. They really are trying for 0-16 this upcoming season.

    my guess is pryor ends up in philly

    Yep. I like the signing IF Pryor was on the team. He'd be a valuable asset, and we'd have Pryor, Britt, and Coleman. A real WR corp. Alas...we now have Britt and Coleman, and three other dweebs we wasted picks on last year. And yes, I realize they were rookies, but I don't think any of them have what it takes. I hope I'm wrong. Hell, COLEMAN might not have what it takes.

    this could help us in keeping pryor

    Torrey Smith, 3-year deal for $15mil with the Eagles, per source maybe philly gives up on pryor now

    What a Browns thing to do..

    Let's get rid of an up-and-coming WR in Pryor for an underwhelming vet in Britt..

    It's like TJ Ward and Donte Whitner all over again! >🙁
