    Almost four years later, I still can't believe the Browns drafted him.

    With Bridgewater, Carr and Garappolo still on the board.

    Sorry, I know, it's over, but maaaaaaaaaaaaaan.

    They...the Browns....and a lot of us bought into the hype.

    The shame of it is that he really did have a great arm, the ability to find receivers, etc. but he wanted to party more than he wanted to take that basic ability and refine it into being an NFL QB. That Heisman was not an accident, nor was that win over Bama in Tuscaloosa of all places. He showed more ability to place the long pass right into receivers and over defenders and through to multiple players in that game and many others during that two years. The "Mike Evans made him" story was a myth. You can look up the stats and try to argue that case, but you will only find a case for him as a primary and multiple receivers that add a significant majority of the yards/TDs. JF was just too into substances to take his talents and fine tune them. One of those great American tragedies.

    BILLY LIVES!!!!

    Nothing says "I've changed" like holding out for an oversized contract???

    You'd think he'd play for free just to get back into organized ball...

    It's called "agents" Tour. You know that. Sooner or later the contract gets signed. If they are smart Hamilton puts all kinds of qualifiers on it for relapse.

    1. He has an agent?
    2. Agents never do what their Players tell them?

    they probably actually figure that they have until May to get a deal done.  Despite everything that he has done (and not done)   JMZ ...and his agent figure that he has 'star name power".    Which he probably does....for right and wrong reasons.  

    I mean, face it:  he WOULD be the biggest name in the CFL.  He WOULD bring a lot of new eyeballs to CFL games...and maybe put a lot of butts in seats.  They would probably put a CFL Channel all over Texas.  I suspect he wants paid just for that publicity...if for nothing else.

    OK so what's the punchline? Oh that is the punchline. 😳

    Will we ever live down the first round, never pick a Heisman QB winner, Johnny Football legacy?

    A 3rd and a starting corner for a 34 year old QB with one year left on his contract, the Skins will be begging the drunk to come back soon enough 

    John Riggins?

    As much as Johnny Football sucked I am still puking over Justin Gilbert with the 8th pick overall. Watching him out there was about as much fun as tooth decay
