                Why?

                Joe wouldn't leave for a winner last year during the trade deadline what makes management think he's walking anytime soon?  Or do the Browns just like to overpay players for no reason, smh.  Sorry you got hurt Joe here's another $5 million we aren't going to spend it on talent anyway.

                    Teams expressed interest in Joe last year before the trade deadline and he told management he wanted to stay in Cleveland.  I have nothing against Joe but he was inked through 2018 and I see no reason to spend more on a guy who is already signed, especially without an extension.

                      32 teams would not sign JT to a extension at this point..Doctors can't even predict if he may play again? This increase makes JT the top paid LT going into the 2018 season which He's Earned..When we still pay the likes of Farmer,Petine than watch Osweiler play on our dime? Paying JT is nothing to bark about right now..If Franchise Stupidity pay was just payable to JT? He's welcome to it..

                        There is no loyalty in the NFL, that's the business.  You earn your contract and if you don't you get cut.  This is simple.  Osweilier was paid for a pick and coaches and GMs get paid after being fired constantly.  This is NFL 101 but hey Joe's a good guy.

                          $4 million is a top 30 safety in the NFL so that $1.5 million is almost halfway there

                              We all like to see "Joe Browns" get his reward for hanging in with this bunch.

                              Plus now he can open up the biggest bait and tackle shop on the Great Lakes.

                                  That would be an interesting question to ask everyone: Who are the best five players to play for the Browns since '99?

                                  Thomas is obviously #1, Phil Dawson is on that list.... then it gets interesting.

                                        Why would my head explode? This fauking team is 1 -23 under this logic, the FO and coaching staff are at odds, we just saw a scrub play LT pretty much as well as JT did, and with JT facing rehab and collecting Social Security benefits............these a$$holes focus on THIS meaningless bullschidt?

                                        Hey, who am I to stop self deprecating behavior. Hell, man, give him Haslams pay scale for all I care. Hell, fire everyone and just send Joe Thomas out on the field.

                                        Joe THomas,  Joe Tomas,  Joe Thomas.............................. That's what the Browns need to do to keep the rebuild going as well as it has............focus on a lard ayus.

                                        Fauhking idiots.

                                          Why?

                                          Joe wouldn't leave for a winner last year during the trade deadline what makes management think he's walking anytime soon?  Or do the Browns just like to overpay players for no reason, smh.  Sorry you got hurt Joe here's another $5 million we aren't going to spend it on talent anyway.
