5. The point is, the Browns do have the salary cap room to take on Beckham’s contract. So they have to look at the player and his value. Beckham is known for his sometimes volatile personality, but that should not be reason for the Browns to pass on him.
6. Beckham is only 26 years old. In 59 NFL games, he’s caught 44 TD passes. This past season, Beckham caught 77 passes (six TDs) in 12 games. He is talented, a former LSU teammate of the Browns’ Jarvis Landry......

Hmmmmmmm, worth the risk on the BROWNS young team? Problem child or potential killer WR crew?

And now to see how this works out in real life.......with Mayfield's gun.

Today yeah I wondered but I think somebody back East is rebuilding.

7. No matter what Gettleman says, his actions scream the Giants wanted Beckham out. They even are willing to carry $19 million of “dead salary cap money” in 2019 for Beckham to play for the Browns.......
8. I doubt the record had anything to do with Beckham being traded. The Giants are in a roster teardown, and that has helped the Browns acquire some very talented players.

Nice to be on the receiving end of a team doing a fire sale? Yes it is.

Yes Terry Pluto must never stop writing things down......about Cleveland sports. https://connect.cleveland.com/staff/tpluto/posts.html
I have written to Terry in the past and will write him again when I get my stuff in order again soon and will include Paul Hoynes who covers the Indians and MLB this time. https://connect.cleveland.com/staff/phoynes/posts.html
I might have some writing time coming up this week.......

Terry's take on the whole Cowherd-Whitlock-Bayless (yes, him, too) view controversey...
Plus a word to "overly optomisitic fans"...

Thanks Steve. I believe the "poor tackling" is largely a coaching issue. This hard, body block tackling may have resulted in more turnovers, but also (IMO) a LOT of missed tackles, longer gains, & extended drives against us. I would rather see solid tackling that results in more "3 & outs".
The talent is there. I am anxious to see what different utilization of that talent brings plus I want another solid LB.

Baseball- now instead of the "National Past time" just passes time until football starts- and it starts the end of the month with the draft.

Terry scribbling about the Browns and the Draft...

...it's just plain weird...it's mid April.....and the draft is so, ho-hum. On draft night we can take the wife out to dinner and a movie. (in theory)
We're used to having multiple 1st round picks....one of em' being top 3.
....and I'll say, "I want the tallest QB with the best mechanics." And somebody else would say, "So long as we don't take one with pick 22. It's cursed."
...it's just plain weird...

Hah, I was going to say news flash! Dorsey has traded up to pick #22 in the first round!! Except that pick is currently held by the Ravens.
