    Pretty good chance your definition of "piece of shit" would apply to over half the league. I dont support what he did at all but its far from a league of the moral majority.

    Some guys just don't get injuries happen Mike. High draft picks? Someone is living in fantasy land. 31 other teams had a chance to sign Hunt for the cost of a contract, (and a minimal one at that) no draft picks involved. 

    It's a near certainty Kareem is facing a lengthy suspension on top of it. Latest estimates are anywhere from a low of six, to a high of twelve games...

    Quality depth never hurts a team.   This guy cost the Browns nothing (but minimal money)...and could give the Browns quality depth.  (his issues aside)

  • Now you basically have Mack(Chubb) and Byner(Hunt) and Duke (Bobby Mitchell)

    Some guys also will never be happy no matter what the team does.   Browns52 being one of those posters who does nothing but bitch and complain about everything.

    If he is suspended 12 games doesn't that mean that we would actually get him for the remaining four games this year and another year because I think players have to be active for more than 25% of the season for it to accrue as a year on a contract. Much like Josh Gordon a couple years ago when he was suspended for the last game that season did not count towards his four-year contract.

    Checked- it counts as an accrued season if Hunt is on the active roster for at least six games. If not, it's not an accrued season- which would mean Hunt wouldn't be a RFA until the 2021 league year.  

    So, if Hunt gets suspended for more than 10 games, (personally, I don't think he will) your premise is correct...   

  • I am hoping he gets a 10 game suspension with credit given for the 4 regular season he missed last year giving him to us in week 7.

    I don't see him being given credit for last year since he was cut.

    There is a difference between being released and suspended.

    I do understand your thinking....I just don't see it happening.

    EBut he was placed on the exempt list which is essentially a suspension so in my mind it should count because any team could’ve picked him up and use him if not for that

    Shrug....who knows?  Guess we will find out in a few weeks/months

    I keep seeing 10 weeks.  

    Question for any who might know.  Once Hunt is officially suspended, can he practice with the team or is he out of all activity?

    If he can't do anything, I don't see how he is going to be much help down the stretch.

    Just looked it up....no.  He can't even get a playbook.  Six games counts as a accrued season.  It's looking more like we signed him to gain his restricted status, tag him, then keep him or take the pick.

    I think this transition into being a good football team is going to be hard for some.

    ... Hence the reason(s)  why I said Duke isn't as expendable as many have speculated.

    I never thought he was going to be expendable this season.  The deadline is the end of October every year.....that is like week 7 or 8.

    I have always thought if Duke is traded, it would be after we sign Hunt to a long term deal, which would be next year.

    Wasn't referencing you specifically, you just had the post content I wanted to quote.   Apologies for the confusion.

    He cant be with team in season, but unless something has changed, he can participate in camp and preseason games, which he should have a playbook then
