    What’s up with the arbitrary Ghoolie stroking? Felt the need to reinforce some other dude’s opinion, all random like?

    Color me surprised. The press l’ve read seemed to indicate Coleman was turning it up a notch. Catching everything thrown his way, refusing to take a day off, being coachable, working with Taylor on his own acord. 

    Mocking the guy for breaking bones playing for your entertainment is shìtty. Maybe he ain’t cut out for it and maybe he was a poor draft pick, but l personally want all second stringers pìssed off because they got beat out for a position.

    So, if what you're saying is true, then riddle me this- then why did the Browns dump him for a low round draft pick? My opinion? Hasn't come close to living up to his status as a first round draft pick, and apparently Dorsey had seen enough to deem him expendable. As Cal just pointed out- he had an inexcusable drop against the Steelers that potentially could have helped win the game. It's been pointed out elsewhere his drop rate means that wasn't an isolated instance. I've long thought- by the time you get to the pros, you can either consistently catch the ball (Landry) or you can't (Greg Little).  

    OK, I have in the past- made mention of the fact Coleman has missed a significant number of games due to injury, but not this time. If you think I was mocking the guy, you'd be wrong. 

    Just pointing out- hate on the Ghoul all you want- but he had this guy pegged long ago.

    If you think everyone sucks, odds are you’ll be right now and again. Even better odds when you’re a Browns fan.

  • Another new regime dumping players from the old one. The cycle continues ?

  • Bills fans must be excited, at least. Now they finally have their star Greg Little 2.0 WR to pair up with their rookie QB who can't hit the broad side of a barn.

  • Gave up too soon on a player working hard everyday at practice ...............while waiting for Gordon to focus on his health and wellness.

  • Dorsey absolutely sucks at trading. Gets a bag of footballs for Shelton and Coleman while giving up 65 for a bridge QB. 

    😂

  • My opinion of this trade in one word......

    HOORAY!!!

  • I absolutely hate this. I said months ago, as did many of us, that trading Corey doesn't make sense. Why trade a 1st round pick who only played two years with a broken hand AND never got to play with a real qb? You're never going to get anything close to comparable value! What did we get? A 5th round pick? Who CARES ABOUT A 5TH ROUND PICK? How often do those guys make a difference?! So stupid.

  • How often did Coleman make a difference? He was a 1st round pick.  Wouldn’t be surprised if Gordon gets sent packing before the trade deadline 

  • Well, there goes my Three Thug WR set:  Gordon, Coleman, Callaway.

    .....Njoku better start catching the damn ball too.

    BEING A BROWNS FAN IS A TEST TO SEE HOW MUCH YOU CAN TAKE

  • I also had thought Coleman was coming on at camp..No better time to showcase some Cory in some preseason games to maybe build up some trade value if any. We can't do this if Cory's sitting in the ice tub. Am imagining Cory as the Miss-fit in this WR room as being the chase-ie. Was it spreading to the QB room too? it will get out & interested to hear coaches thoughts if in or out on this move.. this here is crazy, even if Vince Lombardi was coaching us >>>> https://www.espn.com/blog/cleveland/post/_/id/5232  If passing on Wentz turns out bad? Just think, we handed Tenn. a LT in Jack Conklin at #8..where would we be now?

  • I understand all the hating of the 1st round choice but Corey didn't draft himself.   Trading him for something is better than cutting him for nothing in return. 

    Anyway, here's the All Planet QBs we've had here in 2016 and 2017: RG3-n-Out, Charlie's White-Herst, Cody Kessler, Kevin Hogan, DeShone Kizer.  And how about the 17-19 million $ QB Brock Ostrich that ALMOST made the team in 2017?  

    Here's the GOOD news.  Dorsey shows up and in 1 offseason, he added Jarvis Landry, vet QB Tyrod Taylor (Pro Bowl and Playoffs in the last 3 years), drafted a QB first, drafted an elite CB, added FS Randall from GB, drafted WR/KR/PR Callaway, added LB Mychal Kendricks, added Carlos Hyde and Nick Chubb, brought in a TE (Fells) who can actually block as well as catch... And, is it really just a coincidence that Hue was suddenly open to hiring an OC?   Me no thinks so....

  • I think Ratley made the team with that long pass catch from Mayfield last week.

    Coleman was traded the moment he dropped the wide open sideline pass from the Kaiser.  It was a matter of when, not if.

    Now who was the person on here who thought it was stupid when I suggested right after last season ended that Coleman's days with the Browns were probably numbered? ?

    The lack of success of Browns first-rounders since '99 is staggering. Absolutely staggering. This team in the last few regimes has moved around and accumulated so many first-rounders, with virtually nothing to show for it.

    To put that in a recent perspective, with this trade not single first round pick from 2012-2016 is still on the roster. That's with the Browns drafting the 2nd most 1st round picks in the time frame. 

    Pathetic to say the least.

    Dorsey ain't F'n around. 

    Likely means they're impressed with Higgins and Callaway,  and that Gordon is coming back soon

    I agree.  CJ Board is also having a good camp.  It seems pretty clear that Coleman was going to have a hard time making the team.

    If everybody had like minds, we would never learn.

    One of the main beneficiaries of the Landry trade would have been Coleman, extremely short sighted to give him up for basically Shmuck all

  • He was cheap, working hard, looking better lately, and could have come into his own at any time.  What's the value in trading him NOW?  I just don't get it.

    Didn’t mean to directly aim the mocking comment towards you but rather a general attitude some have towards a player who is injury prone, like there’s some kind of malice towards the guy. I get it, physical sport and some guys’ bodies ain’t cut out for it. Call a spade a spade and move on but no need to bash a guy for it.

  • lmao....a #15 overall pick produces absolutely nothing.....jesus. That has to go down as the biggest screw up of the sashi era yet.

    Meanwhile, our wide reciever group looks pretty weak- we have the king of the bubble screen, a 4th round pick rookie, and a guy who has been in the nfl 7 years but has been good in one of them like 5 years ago....

    thats not a strong group
