OBJ trade whispers bubbling once again

OBJ talent is too expensive.  Period.  You can replicate him for less.  The Browns have way to much talent at RB to not feature the run.

If OBJ is dragging safeties out of the backfield, so much the better for the running game. That long TD gets all their attention on film day.

I still think he gets traded this offseason for this very reason, and I guarantee we'll get bombarded by a "SEE I TOLD YOU SO" thread because it finally happened by a certain poster.

Meanwhile the Pumpkin Patch Press has reported Po's heart throb Barkley can still reach 1000 yards on just 1 leg.   Barkley joins Po's other can't miss NFL Superheros temporarily out of work.  Josh Gordon has found NFL employment again; but he is currently suspended for stealing Tommy Chong's identity and his bong.  Rumor has it Trent Richardson is still ready to break out; and if he keeps his head up this time - he just might find the daylight he hasn't seen since college...

Probably the most single biggest event in the game, OBJ clicking.

Even when Barkley is healthy... He looks average to me... Not devoid of talent.. But certainly not generational...

[Tour2ma]

But would OBJ have done what he did without this tread to motivate him?

Were he healthy, where would you put the pecking order:?

Dalvin Cook

Derrick Henry

Nick Chubb

Barkley

Zeke

Or is there someone else you all would insert into the Top 5 RBs in the game right now?

Give your list.

I think you have to have McCaffrey and Kamara in the convo if we are using when healthy.

AS O.A. "Bum" Phillips once said of Earl Campbell... "He may not be in a class by himself, but it doesn't take long to call the role."

Works for Chubb as well...

There's a handful of RBs... maybe two handfuls... who stand at the head of the current active players. McCaffrey and Kamara are definitely in that group. With time GB's Aaron Jones could make his way into the group as could LVR's Josh Jacobs.

Trade him for a 5th...

Yea, because they predicted the unleashing of a man-altered virus to begin the control grid and that never happened....oh wait.

Mr. Jimmy wants a 1st.

I don't think anybody believes OBJ is a POS when he feels like showing up.  Production wise, he's had only two games with the Browns that warrant the kind of money he's making, and draft capital given up for him.

Giving a 1st+3rd+$15M+ a year for him remains highly questionable, especially how the draft played out with Jeffrey Simmons/Dexter Lawrence and all those WR's still available at pick #17.
