  • A LT doesn’t fix this teams problems. Maybe on the surface it appears that way.

    Look at Freddie look at Baker.

    first year starting, first year head coach... they are not the problem.

    Calloway just getting back, double covered Landry and OBJ, Njoku being injured, Higgins being injured...

    reduces major responsibilities/concerns to just a few. That lets the oline be attacked, etc etc.

    Yes I don't see one or two big glaring problems I see a bunch of various problems including Freddie and Baker but including a collection of including penalties, injuries, lack of performance and others.

    Sure it always reflects back to the HC but include the FO to some degree and the individual players not performing as expected.  Kind of like beating the same dead horse for 8 weeks now.

    Let’s be real , after the Patriots game the Browns will be 2-5 . The season will be all but over. There’s no reason to make a trade, save the draft picks and look forward to the draft AGAIN!!

  • Now reports are saying that if not Trent, then Nate Solder... probably the most overrated LT of this decade.

    Robinson is playing better than Nate.

    agree.. and me thinks Dorsey is just using Gettleman as a pawn to get Skins to tango or waltz (walk'z)

    No please.  No dancing.  No trading for a 31 year old often injured tackle.  Just draft one next April.

    Only trade for TW if it is not gonna cost an arm and leg.
    Otherwise, figure out how to put a drive together without deep developing routes that require good protection..

    Bob Wylie needed a cowardly Lion body frame for his stint in HK..also a youngster to tell his repeated war stories too..Corbett had to catch Bob's eyes with some great stretching techs...

    I’m on the fence about Ward long term.  I dont know if we should pay him his next big contract. But that’s crazy- and we can fetch a ton more than 31 year old tackle for a half of a season

    I’d go after Jamal Adams before chasing Trent Williams.

    I can't remember who said it, but they made a comparison of Ward to ex-Colts safety Bob Sanders. 

    Both helluva good players when on the field, but the problem with both is that they aren't on the field enough.

    Exactly you are no good if you can’t suit up.  

    Right now when he plays he does well he had a better rookie year and his compensation isn’t killing our cap space. Makes him a valuable commodity to other teams... But do you pay him over some of our other guys who will attract top dollar in the next couple years??? And He’s probably a hold out candidate going into his final year.

    Well, they are fucking idiots.   It is why they border on being the worst run franchise for the last 20 years.  (neck and neck with the Browns for a lot of that)

    It's official:

    Trent Williams will not be a Cleveland Brown in 2019.

    And it is now 4:05 by the clock on my computer, so that trading deadline has passed, no?
