Tick Tock..Crow as a RFA has till this Friday to sign his 2.7M Offer Sheet. Atkinson re-signed days ago.D. Jackson & Duke are under a contract. Let the Games begin Friday? But...If Crow does not sign, he can't play anywhere? So Crow doesn't accrue another season & Browns can tender him again next year..PEN PLEASE!! Draft RB visits continue..BTW---^^(nice a$$ lady..from the late Jackie Gleason)..Gip, get your top pen pushers on this Crow.but.If offered a 2nd rounder? Is it this Draft or 2018 draft?

I like Crow, and I would've killed to see him play more with a lead and a healthier offensive line. We lost Bitonio and we went completely to garbage instantly. Bitonio HAS to find a way to stay healthy.

Package deal Crow and Kaepernick.

You want the Browns to sign Kaepernick? I am not necessarily totally against that if they don't do something serious at the QB position in this draft.

Joe Mixon allegedly has another assault on a female dating back to highschool. Came up during the most recent civil trial.

LogicIsForSquares

So I don't think Mixon will be coming in to replace Crowell.

Just say, no... to Joe...

Sign it, Crow... let's see what you can do behind a good OL.

The difference is that Kaepernick has proven that he can play a bit. JFF has not.

But, I say: Go for it. If the Browns don't get the QB they want (and, yes, we really don't know what they really want. Many say it is MT...Ghoolie thinks it is "Black Tarkenton" i.e. Watson, others have mocked other QBs to the Browns), then do a similar deal to what they did with RGIII. Sign him to a minimal deal. It costs them nothing but money, which the Browns have plenty of, and you see how he fits into Hue Jackson's system.

Only one condition: I don't care if he wants to protest for or against some kind of civil rights...I would just disallow him to wear those cop/pig socks or anything of the sort. No disparaging police...who he would need to protect him if he went off in some stupid direction with his rhetoric.

Wet.. dry... whatever... no interest here... in either...

But gun to my head?

The second round tender consequences are a little vague- BUT. The way I take it is he doesn't sign the tender, he can (and should already have been) negotiating with other teams. They can offer him a better deal than the Browns $2 million or so. But if he signs elsewhere, the Browns will get a second round pick from that team. Obviously to date no other team thinks he's worth a second rounder with better RB talent likely available in the upcoming draft. He'll probably be back on the Browns for a one year prove it deal @ the $2.7 million tender. Boo-hoo, most of us peons would take that amount of cash for a year, and promptly retire.

Here's the thing. If these guys convinced me with a Mia culpa that they felt bad for their past actions I'm good with either of them. It wasn't Kaepernick's attitude that made him suck, he just had, as Bill says, diminishing skills. And besides the grand standing on the sidelines he was a team cancer before that.

Johnny had, or has, mental problems. If he sincerely beat those and puts in the effort to get better I think he has a much higher ceiling. I know guys who have beaten the alcoholism problem. Don't you?

I would worry about Johnny because he's very bright and articulate and could probably convince somebody that he was sincere about riding the water wagon.

Getting rid of Crowell (sp) makes good Browns sense.

We are rebuilding....building,.....or building for the future

We have few good players...........

Crowell is a good player

We have plenty of cash

Do whatever possible to fuck up this guy playing for the Browns.

FUCK YEAH MAN................this team really got's some shit together.

Fucking Morons.

What would you do if by chance the Browns made the playoffs next year. This is just a hypothetical. I am not expecting it by any means, but..in the past the 1999 Rams went from 4-12 to Super Bowl Champions, and in 2001 the Pats went from 5-11 to Super Bowl Champs. I am not even asking you about that hypothetical.

Just what would you do if they went 9-7 and squeaked into the playoffs.

Would you:

A. Give all Glory to a God that works miracles

B. Commit sepeku because your honor has been stained

C. Hide in a cave for a year.

D. Still frak off and become a Raider fan.

E. Cry like a little girl out of joy.

Yea, I know, you will say you don't have to worry because it will never happen. I fucking get that, so don't go there.

Just, a big "What if". What would you do?

Crowell dead last in yards after contact, he's not irreplaceable
