    WOW. This is really big news. 

  • Perhaps the thinking was that they had already decided they were going to cut [or not re-sign] him after the season so better to see what the young 'uns have?

    Campbell was a "young un"....this was only like his 3rd year.

  • me point is that there is a logic to it -- why (over)pay for a skillset when you have the same-to-better in UDFA?

    If the skill is pretty much equal, no reason to pay to resign when you can get the performance for the rookie minimums

    Because in this case we don't trust this FO to actually evaluate the talent such that we will get equal performance.  And, again, it smacks of being a combination of being skinflints...and of just being arrogant thinking that they can bring in better talent than whomever was here before who chose these guys. 

    There is ABSOLUTELY NO Basis upon which these guys can act arrogant when it comes to their talent evaluation of players. 

    So...it leaves us all skeptical when they make a move like this.

  • Campbell was not released. He is still with the team. He was "waived/injured". If he clears waivers, he will revert to the Browns injured reserve list.

    Not really big.....but newsworthy.  Campbell was originally seen as a guy with some talent.  

  • Seems like a real quick anal lynic Band-Aid for the SB 5pm workday😉 ..But we got ya a Bengal Huey..Both were drafted in 15. Campbell a 4th(115) Smith a 6th(197).In 3 seasons=Campbell 60 Tackles 20 Assist..Smith 4 Tackles 8 Assist..Hurry back & Good Luck Ibraheim..This week, We also lost OL Zach Sterup from PS straight to Miami's roster..Browns gained a LB from TB/SD Josh Keyes. Browns sent LB Deon King to PS after clearing waivers ..So we go into Detroit with only Shelton,Bitonio & Kirksey not acquired by SB..

    I just got back from seeing Lyle Lovett and John Hiatt at the Vet's in Providence.  GREAT acoustic show.  John's voice isn't what it once was but he got it goin'...and Lyle is great.  If they'll be performing nearby, I highly recommend it.
