Former Bengals G Kevin Zeitler expects to sign with Cleveland, per sources. Big day for Browns O line. Highest paid guard in NFL history.

But I thought PFF said that our Oline was damn near elite?

$60 million over 5 years.

Between him and Bitonio we have over $100 million locked in on our guards alone. Should say a whole lot about what they wanna do on offense this year, which is just fine with me.

So we are going the Dallas Cowboys route. The line sorted in front of two young guys at the skill positions?

I still class Kessler and Crowell as young...

Well that's settled. Now we just need to stay healthy and do some damn protecting of whatever qb we have trot out there.

Mr. Make-Believe

Oh fuck yeah! O-Line looks amazing!

Do these moves bring Fournette in to play if he lasts until 12?

We have some decent running backs.

President could learn a thing from Sashi ... This is how you build a wall.

They're not Fournette though are they? I've seen Adrian Peterson comparisons with him

They had to switch the players up to make it fair for the defenses.

Now we do not need to draft Oline!!! Draft Defense,defense,defense!!!

I think Cook or Mixon would be more apt comparisons, at least if we're operating under the Cowboy's gameplan. Cook and Mixon seem a little more versatile. Fournette seems like he would need a rather specific offense to excel, a la AP. That's just my humble opinion though.

Not even close man. He was decent in college, but got held in check against good defenses. I'm just saying he is not a need with our own rb being more then serviceable. Crow was tearing it up the 1st few games. He could be a 1000 plus Yard rusher year in and out with new one line makeover.

LondonBrown

I'm happy to go with Crowell. This line helps him and whoever the starting QB is going to be.

Nice, I'm batting 1,000 on my free-agency predictions so far (predicted Britt and Tretter as well as Zeitler).

Are Bouye and McDonald still in play?
