Earl Thomas Signing with Ratbirds
-
I love Earl and he has been my favorite DB since he came from Texas ( wanted him over Haden)
That said, it would be a move I'm ehh on. Coming off injury, wrong side of 30 and looking for high guaranteed dollars as potentially his last contract.
On the field wise - he takes over deep center for Randall and/or they become more interchangeable. Kindred takes over for Pep as the nickel safety/5th man pressure / 8man front.
Well... there would go my lack of playoff experience and vet presence arguments... at least in part.

Still played great prior to injury... fits our short-term cap... a lot more there than "eh"... at least from me.
This is an impact up the middle move if it gets done... just where we need it.
And interchangeability is the key. Wilks loves it...

Wouldn't mind a short term deal, but where does this put Kindred/Randall?
Would make more sense to sign a true SS like Clinton-Dix

OSU/Browns fans will forever remember Pep for one bad season out of position and then swapping him for Earl Thomas and OBJ... Lol

The defense being shit poor wasn't his fault. Guy balled out and we wouldn't have OBJ if Peppers didn't have a good year. He did what Gregg asked of him. I feel bad for the guy, but our offense is literally a Madden offense now.

Time will tell.. the motto of this offseason. It’s difficult for us fans to be patient in a time like this ?

The 'eh' depends on cost - to me at least.

Randall and ET play the hashes and center field. Kindred steps in as the nickel safety.
Edit. Also times kindred might sub Randall in base packages for 8 and 9 man fronts.

4 years 55mil. Hence my 'eh'.
Jefferson and ET might be the best duo in the North and maybe the AFC.

FUCK!!!

Well at least we acted interested to steepin his price tag maybe but this is not good news for Baker when it’s time to play Ratbirds

Eric Berry is getting released. Seems pretty logical to give the guy a chance here, don't think he's gonna be attached to a steep price tag.
