    What’s up with the arbitrary Ghoolie stroking? Felt the need to reinforce some other dude’s opinion, all random like?

    Color me surprised. The press l’ve read seemed to indicate Coleman was turning it up a notch. Catching everything thrown his way, refusing to take a day off, being coachable, working with Taylor on his own acord. 

    Mocking the guy for breaking bones playing for your entertainment is shìtty. Maybe he ain’t cut out for it and maybe he was a poor draft pick, but l personally want all second stringers pìssed off because they got beat out for a position.

    So, if what you're saying is true, then riddle me this- then why did the Browns dump him for a low round draft pick? My opinion? Hasn't come close to living up to his status as a first round draft pick, and apparently Dorsey had seen enough to deem him expendable. As Cal just pointed out- he had an inexcusable drop against the Steelers that potentially could have helped win the game. It's been pointed out elsewhere his drop rate means that wasn't an isolated instance. I've long thought- by the time you get to the pros, you can either consistently catch the ball (Landry) or you can't (Greg Little).  

    OK, I have in the past- made mention of the fact Coleman has missed a significant number of games due to injury, but not this time. If you think I was mocking the guy, you'd be wrong. 

    Just pointing out- hate on the Ghoul all you want- but he had this guy pegged long ago.

    Didn’t mean to directly aim the mocking comment towards you but rather a general attitude some have towards a player who is injury prone, like there’s some kind of malice towards the guy. I get it, physical sport and some guys’ bodies ain’t cut out for it. Call a spade a spade and move on but no need to bash a guy for it.

  • lmao....a #15 overall pick produces absolutely nothing.....jesus. That has to go down as the biggest screw up of the sashi era yet.

    Meanwhile, our wide reciever group looks pretty weak- we have the king of the bubble screen, a 4th round pick rookie, and a guy who has been in the nfl 7 years but has been good in one of them like 5 years ago....

    thats not a strong group

  • Bills fans must be excited, at least. Now they finally have their star Greg Little 2.0 WR to pair up with their rookie QB who can't hit the broad side of a barn.

    Pretty much where my mind was headed. 

  • I do NOT think we are signing Dez. I DO think Gordon will be starting game 1. I think Coleman was expendable, Sashi blew that draft, let's deal with it and enjoy what Dorsey is putting together.

    Our WRs will be formidable.

    Gordon in the X, Landry in the slot, Callaway is the third reciever, should have a great  rookie year, because you have to cover those other two.

    Then I've got Hollywood Higgins and Jeff Janis and Bo Ratley. Higgins is having a great camp, Ratley looking like a good pick in the 6th, Janis is special teams ace and sneaky fast reliable option.

    CJ Board having a good camp? The more the merrier.

    Once Callaway showed he can do everything Coleman can do (and more on ST) Coleman was the odd man out.

    Now who was the person on here who thought it was stupid when I suggested right after last season ended that Coleman's days with the Browns were probably numbered? ?

    The lack of success of Browns first-rounders since '99 is staggering. Absolutely staggering. This team in the last few regimes has moved around and accumulated so many first-rounders, with virtually nothing to show for it. 

    To put that in a recent perspective, with this trade not single first round pick from 2012-2016 is still on the roster. That's with the Browns drafting the 2nd most 1st round picks in the time frame. 

    Pathetic to say the least.

    Sigh... yeah.

    You actually have to go back to 2010 to find a Browns first round guy worth keeping around past his rookie contract: Joe Haden.

    We are literally statistically better at drafting second rounders than first rounders Since 2010. By leaps and bounds. Ogbah, Orchard, Bitonio, Schwartz, Sheard, Ward...

  • Stupid trade!

  • 7th rounder 2020. Lol

    We sure took the Bills to the cleaners eh ...... win win for them

  • I'm not sad he was dealt... His play didn't merit anything but a 7th round pick or lower,,, He sucked... Get over it.. He's gone.. I couldn't be happier... He

    ll be riding the pine in Buffalo before you all know it...

  • Did I like Ice-Butter Hands? No. 

    Do I think that making the move now and what we got in the trade makes sense? No. 

    First of all, there's nothing less you can trade for than a 7th round of... 2020! Not even 2019! Next thing is giving him for free. 

    Second, injuries in training camp happen. If you have an expendable receiver, let him stay until the final cuts, so you can: A, give him a roster spot if your main receivers suffer an injury and you need to fill a hole; B, trade him when OTHER team suffers such a loss and desperately needs to fill a hole.

    At this moment, his stock was at the lowest point. There's no sense on trading him immediately, in my opinion.

    Hes pure garbage and John Dorsey knows it.... When you guys see Callaway play... you'll forget all about Coleman.. Trust me.

    Agreed, he was essentially cut because he's not good. Wasn't gonna make the team. Hasn't been good off the field, hasn't been good on the field, hasn't been good in the locker room ... We didn't want him anymore.

    He would have fallen to fifth receiver on the depth chart, what were keeping him for?

    I'm pretty high on Callaway, and even Ratley. But certainly I would approve if he was poison for the locker room. 

  • Id have kept him for kick returns alone over than that pathetic pick we got back
