    Exactly. We now have a top 3 wr group. I’ll take that over a #17 pick, an extra 3rd rounder and a saftey that is average at best

    Average at best yes I’m afraid that’s the truth.

    The key to proper argument is succinctness. He Performed at average no more need be said.

    Woody won't want to hear this, but mucking through the fallout on NFL.com- here's what their talking head had to say about Peppers.   

    "The Giants said they would have to be "blown away" to consider giving up Beckham, yet he went for a similar draft pick haul to what Sam Bradford inspired before the 2016 season, with a mid-level starting safety in Peppers thrown in."  Safe to say mid level = "average". 

    At least Jabril is heading home to where he grew up and can play in front of his family. I do wish him well.   

  • It's obvious Dorsey has been talking to Thomas for quite sometime because the ink hadn't dried, figuratively speaking, on the obj trade before we started hearing about Earl. And prior to that peppers was not part of any trade rumors. U can be sure the Browns would have GLADLY packaged ogbah in this trade instead of pep because ogbah is now rotational depth...and the giants now need a LDE. But they wanted peppers instead......tells u everything. The giants insisted on peppers.

  • Dorsey knows he has to build up the defense if he wants to get past Kansas City and beat the Patriots

    Most exciting thing is that we now have a formidable front 4 that can get the ball for us much more often and we have some playmakers who can score for us much more often with he opportunities the D provides. The happiest two players on the Browns right now have to be Baker and Myles. Now they are both provided premier support to do what they do best, wreck other teams on their respective sides of the ball. Additionally we have replaced the worst HC ever in pro football and on of the worst ST coaches in pro ball. The Browns are now "a team to be feared" as I heard last night from Prime Time on NFL Net. He was really happy for all the long suffering Browns fans, as ere all the other commentators. I can hardly  wait to see what other rabbits Buddy Boy pulls out of the hat between now and the 2019 season opener. It's like waking up Xmas morning every day right now.

  • Peppers "replaces" Landon Collins? lol...

    He wasn't a Dorsey pick, Woody... therefore he was expendable.

    Also possible he was a not a great fit for Wilks' system... who IIRC likes more interchangeable FS-SS combos... so  we won't lose that much even if Kindred is our starting SS.

    Pep played deep a lot last year, got that pick against Denver, and has a year playing the deepest safety ever (....ha). 

    I think this was more about what the Giants wanted than what we were wanting to move. And with some Safeties still out there, I can see why Dorsey did it.

    Just bummed to see it when everything this season has been about him being a leader on the D and what not. Oh well

  • Woody, step back from the ledge. You're upset that we are getting rid of a middle of the road safety for a HoF WR. This hurts the defense, but if we are averaging 72 points a game, then who cares. Our defense is much better than KC on paper.

  • Pep will prove to be better than MOR if he used as a box SS...

    I'm not nearly as on the ledge as people think. I'm playing it up a little on here.

    It isn't a one for one trade. He's above average. I know Odell is elite.

    I'm disappointed. I was hoping it'd be Ogbah or something. The Giants clearly wanted Pep. I'm excited to see our new team though

    I know a few things:

    A.  we traded for a Hall of Fame caliber

    B. In return gave up what so far has been a mediocre or below producer.   If Peppers has serious talent, it only showed for brief moments.

    C. The key to this deal was not Peppers...he was just a throw in so that the Giants could have a body at safety.  The key was the first round pick.

    So, clearly, I must know a lot of things you seemingly have no clue about.

  • Woody... There is hope. Right now former Wolverine Kyle Kalis is the backup at both Center and Guard as far as I can see. And people aren't getting killed after stealing his weed, for all I know.

    So there's your new guy.

  • Well played, Woody. I feel it for ya. I was curious of how would Peppers develop once he was used properly and I valuee his versatility; that's useful in the tactic battle in the NFL. 

    Most of all, I liked how he behaved trying to lead the defense and that he was one of the few consistently good tacklers we had on D.

    Only when they suck for the Browns, like one year wonder Braylon Edwards. Hey, we try to like those Michigan guys.
