    I want to thank the Cleveland Browns for giving me my opportunity and looking forward to seeing the change. Time for the next step.

    Bet Devalve sleeps better tonight.

  • What the actual fuck. You cut a decent producing veteran that couldve mentored Njoku, and who had a pro bowl worthy season 2 years ago. They have some explaining to do

  • Jeez he's not Gronkowski. Still rebuilding, relax

  • Also, you're telling me NO TEAM is looking for a tight end that has expierience, can block decently, has size, and can catch? Getting nothing back for him is disgraceful

    I think so too, just feel bad for the guy, you could tell he loved the city and the team. Unfortunate we couldnt get anything for him

  • People get cut everyday.

  • It's being looked at as a favor to him in that it gives him more time to hook up with a Team versus waiting until Training Camp.

    Makes sense, though I still hate to see him go

    It's better for him to cut him now rather than ride him through pre-season and then cut. At least he has a chance to sign with and impress someone else for a few months.

    Know what? I'm tired of this crap. He's not Gronk, But at a projected $3.8 million, he wasn't getting paid like him either. Same deal as Pryor. Moneyball to the extreme.

    And to those who haven't figured out the direction this team is headed. Let me give you what I remember of Sashi's quote. "We still have a lot of holes to fill". Translation: "were going to suck (again) for Sam (Darnold). Our goal this year is to improve- from 1-15 to 3-13. This will be another year where Haslam is going to be questioning his decision if he put the right guys in place. Sashi must be 100% confident he's got 5 years to get the Browns in order, or he wouldn't be pushing picks into 2018. London- I'm glad I didn't totally commit to the England trip, because I'm not flying over there and spend big bucks, only to watch the Browns get embarrassed.

    Hey I like that one. "Suck for Sam". Something I can get behind.

  • you know you're pretty ordinary when jordan cameron outshined you.

  • No surprise here.. I saw this coming.. but I'm surprised they didnt bring him back to camp...

    Nickers...."There are no old running QB's in the NFL "~Sam Rutigliano~

  • Thought Telfer might be the one to go, but not totally shocked except that Barn apparently had zero trade value. I mean not even a future 6th?

    Good luck, Gary... thanks for 2015...

    Agree. This will be one long losing suckfest of a season.

  • I don't understand the rush to cut Barnidge. I think its obvious his time was winding down, but I probably would have kept him through this season to give me an experienced guy who can help mentor the other guys and phase him out. I don't see the advantage to cutting him.

  • This smacks of the old: "he's not one of our guys" bullshit. Is every player that was not selected specifically by this front office get show the door because they were not "our guy".

    I agree, its like: he is to be all of 32 this year, so lets get rid of him because he is that old.

    What can DeValve do that Barnidge can't? Other than be a choice of this front office?
