    Yeah, he did... just being an ass taking a rule of thumb to an extreme because he thinks he scored a point. Pfffft...

    Because hyperbolic arguments contain some new form of validity?

    or you notice the Browns invested heavily in building a bulletproof cockpit for whoever starts?

    Yeah im gonna have to have that one proven first before i call any pocket created by a browns o line "bulletproof". We've had good talent on the line before and gotten less than mediocre results.

    Regarding the o-line, it's the old saw the chain is only as strong as the weakest link. Yeah Thomas, Bitonio, and Mack are individually pro bowl. Do you think an opposing defensive coordinator is going to bother attacking a strength? Nope, we're heading through unabated on the garbage right side. 🙂

    Currently, the only question is going to be at right tackle. I should add Barnidge is a liability if he's called on to block.

    Sounds like you totally get it! 😁 I have prevented two already..... I've never pushed my tongue against the roof of my mouth so hard.

    If this deal goes down and NE receives a 2018 1st round selection from Cleveland not a single NFL website with sanity will record the pick as a 2nd rounder.

    NOBODY.

    Why do you even continue?

    True...

    Also true? No one will "record it" as a 2017 1st rounder...

    how does the manner in which websites track assets have anything to do with the real time value of said asset?


  • Interesting. @AllbrightNFL just told @NickWilson923 there was a team that called the Browns to trade a late pick for Osweiler w/no eating $$


  • I was watching Jeopardy last night and the clue was "Only team willing to trade for Brock Osweiler" and we all know the answer.

  • It was a creative way of using an extra asset (cap rollover) to acquire a draft pick. Use it or lose it. Shrewd bending of the rules. Otherwise, jimmuh pockets that money.

    If anything, it shows he ain't being cheap.

    How exactly did this trade hurt the brown?

    Because they whiffed on a serious piece like Tony Jefferson, added a journeyman underachiever like Kenny Britt and will use this as somehow proving they know what the fuck they're doing.

    Great they are smart enough to spend $16 million of money they refuse to allocate on real talent to draft another Shon Coleman, kudos to the back office

    Jefferson took less money to play with the Ravens. What, exactly, the fuck, are the browns supposed to do? Player also have a choice in this dance...Were not the prettiest girl in the room. Your whining is petty and unrealistic.

    You overpay like they did for Collins & Taylor. That's what you do when your organization is a tire fire but hey we spent $16 million of unallocated resources for #55 in 2018

  • No, that's what silly fans do with no executive experience when discussing other people money.

    So they didn't overpay Collins & Taylor?

    Taylor has had 1 productive year in the NFL and couldn't get on the field in Miami $5 million per.

    And don't take my word on Collins, read the articles.

    Now I'm not arguing that we shouldn't have signed Collins or Taylor but giving Jefferson more money makes more sense than allocating resources trying to renegotiate a contract for a bum who you hope to pawn off on another bottom feeder for another draft pick.

    Maybe the 49ers, Jags or Jets get involved and give the Browns a 3rd rounder for a restructured Osweiler so the Browns end up getting #55 & #65 for $4 million. On it's face that is a great deal but that only works if the guys you draft are worth anything. There are current free agents that have proven on the field that they can contribute and I'd rather see them in Browns jerseys.
