    Browns looking for offensive weapons ahead of trade deadline, sources say:

    The Cleveland Browns are exploring ways to acquire more offensive weapons before Tuesday's trade deadline, a league source told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

    The Browns are looking for a deep-ball threat who can spread the field for the offense, as well as help for the running game, which has struggled all season.

    Hue Jackson's Cleveland team is 0-7 entering Sunday's game against the Minnesota Vikings in London. Its offense ranks second worst in the league in points per game (14.7).

    The Browns' receiving unit lost second-year player Corey Coleman to a broken right hand in Week 2, and Kenny Britt has been a free agent bust. Duke Johnson Jr., who is listed as a running back, leads the Browns in receptions (32) and receiving yards (314). In the backfield, Isaiah Crowell has failed to duplicate a strong 2016, amassing only 287 yards on 91 carries (3.2-yard average) on the year.

    The lack of weapons hasn't helped the quarterback play. Rookie DeShone Kizer has been pulled from two of his past three starts but will get the nod behind center against Minnesota.

    Since then-coach Mike Pettine made the decision to bench Brian Hoyer in favor of Johnny Manziel in 2014, the Browns have changed starting quarterbacks in 20 of the past 43 games, through last Sunday's loss to the Tennessee Titans. Nine of the moves were made because of injury, and 11 were made because of a coach's decision.

    Kizer. Trade him and the circus that follows him to The Steeler for Bryant.  Ben is going to retire soon, and Kizer could take his place! 

    That would be an easy 2 wins a year for Cleveland, thank you Kizer- finally he'd complete a pass to a Brown in the Redzone. 😉

    The steelers arent going to trade bryant unless he does something horrendous. It sets a poor precedent where players then think they can force their way out. I want to like bryant but hes being a giant man child. He has a ton of talent and maybe seeing juju go off tonight will help him realize what a child hes being. it easily could have been him racking up the yardage. T. Y hilton is getting mentioned a lot.  Id take kizer and let him sit and learn but no idea what we would trade for him. Bryant isnt going anywhere.

  • Just look into the NFL passing stats and make yourself sick. We lead the league in two dubious categories, worst completion %age (54.4%) and most horrendous TD to INT ratio ( 7 t0 17). No one is even close in that second stat by a country mile. If Jarvis Landry is really out there then pay the price, whatever it is. He at least gets open better than anyone we have. Throw in Britt for nothing.

    Not sure how a WR will help those.  Those are QB stats.

    Because we don't have any WR capable of getting consistently open like he does, so that's how it can affect a QB.

  • Getting open is not the problem with our WR's.. they're open but Kizer can't get the ball to them.  TY Hilton would not improve Kizer's accuracy one bit.

    Also, "open" doesn't mean "nobody within 3 yards" -- it includes the more common situation where the QB "throws the WR open" by putting it where only WR can catch it even with perfect coverage.. the WR's body would be in between DB and the ball.

    I think the effect would be minimal....if the QB cannot do his job. Which ours cannot.  (not that the receivers do theirs any better)

    But, I am willing to try ....if they want to bring in a couple of proven WRs.  Hilton etc.

    That will happen as soon as pigs fly.  Maybe we can trade for Calvin Johnson too...

    Why am I responding...   But Hogan will have to elevate himself from inactive AND Kizer will have to get hurt between now and then for that to have a chance (ignoring your masturbation over Gordon) Coach Huey has already said that Kizer is starting coming out of the bye week.
