    Looks like C.J. Bello gains the most out of this, as I know project our backup linebackers to be Avery, Burgess and Bello. All good hustlers, hopefully Avery is healthy enough to start the season or we may need to scour the waiver wire for a LB, I don't think Grace or Currie are anything special.

    So, who knows.

    I remember that era well, Martha was a real smart cookie with a great career which included being a model and a stockbroker among other things. That ImClone stock was a stupid small potatoes deal but the lying and attempted cover up got her in trouble. 

    .......After a highly publicized six-week jury trial, Stewart was found guilty in March 2004 of felony charges of conspiracy, obstruction of an agency proceeding, and making false statements to federal investigators, and was sentenced in July 2004 to serve a five-month term in a federal correctional facility and a two-year period of supervised release (to include five months of electronic monitoring)....... in West Virginia yet, 

    But she did recover and she can cook!

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Now this deal what an embarrassment to the NFL no murder, assult, drugs, smacking women around......insider trading? Are you kidding me? 

    Oh well, that's one for the NFL record book, too stupid or maybe boring to even make the National Enquirer. 😆

    Philadelphia probably knew about this but failed to tell the Browns.

    Wow. The official statement from the Browns is a bit cryptic. Along the lines of “we thought we knew what we were getting into, then found out some other things, so screw this...”

    Grossi may have this right? Kendricks was a FA that made some team visits, with teams telling teams the truth.Philly had no reason to lie to any team.The truth story was not working with GM's..so he tried becoming the victim of the story when he got to Dorsey.. https://www.espn.com/blog/cleveland/post/_/id/5386

    Kind of refreshing to have an athlete busted for something other than dope weapons or beating the fuk out of his old lady.

    I mean I believe Dorsey at face value on this. NFL players get duped on money all the time, and at the time of signing it seems apparent no one knew he was not more than a victim. I mean maybe I'm forgetting something, but when have you ever seen something like this? Of course it would happen to the Browns though haha.

    Ultimately he was a good depth player but this isn't earth shattering news. I will be very interested to check the cuts though to see if we can't add that depth back somewhere.

    So?  What does that tell us....such that Dorsey was not willing even to wait until there has been a sentencing recommendation?  That Dorsey view this "white collar crime" as serious as, say an offense of violence?    Or does it tell us that he just didn't see where this guy was any better than the several other LBs that he was competing against, and that his conviction here gave Dorsey an easy out an an easy way to do a necessary roster trim?

    Fed prosecutors apparently are throwing the book at Mychal and his Goldman analyst stock-tip buddy ; both face up to 25 years.

    I'm guessing Dorsey didn't want any part of the notion that he kept Kendricks around after finding all this out..

    if you read up on it Gip, Dorsey said in a more round about way that Kendricks and his agent mislead them on the severity of his involvement, and thats why he was released.

    Well, OK, perhaps.   I still say that if he was a supreme talent, they would have waited, but since perhaps he did not distinguish himself all that much from the players he is competing with for a job, it made it a lot easier to axe him.

    My first inclination as well......pro bowl prospect, ah, well let's not rush to judgement just yet.

    BUT I do like the way the "new" new BROWNS are being run, a vast improvement over the post 1996 or 1999+ versions.

    Dorsey was mislead. Big difference in "victim" and "active participant". If you read deeper, Mychal and the broker were talking in code. JD wanted no part of the repercussions.

    And, again, his talent was not worth the wait.   Compare to Josh Gordon.  And, correct me if I am wrong, Josh never actually ever face a "criminal" charge for anything, did he?   Not even possession, ala Calloway.

    IIRC Gip, Josh did get busted for a DUI.  But that's 3 days of drunk school and a $500 fine at worst, as opposed to the potential of multiple years in the Federal Slammer.
