  • Did any one really think this guy was going to play by the rules? Couldn’t do it in college, now let’s hand him millions so he can continue his life of partying only to disrespect Dorsey the one person giving him a second chance 

  • I’ve always heard first round talent.

    whats the standard?

    the guy has always run poor routes.  He has suspect hands.  I can’t think of any tough catches in traffic that WRs make.  Good speed though and tracked deep passes decently (Saints game).  He was probably drafted talent wise where he should have been

    well, if you ignore character, all too often it bites you in the backside.

    Win some, lose some. Too bad for the Browns.

    Is anyone else starting to think Dorsey doesn't consider enough about character when drafting/signing players? Don't you think too many bad character types ruin the team? What is the total # of current and cut players who has done drugs or beat women?

    Not really. Calloway was low risk high reward. 
     

    He was looking really good last year... 

    As long as you don’t waste a ton of money or high draft capital, keep throwing darts at question marks

    His "talent" from a pure physical standpoint was good, but he's so immature and thoughtless that it doesn't matter how fast he is. He was also in a credit card scam at UF. So, his flaws were not just weed, he was also a thief and he showed up late last game, didn't arrive until after noon I believe. Trash. Dorsey loves dudes with issues.

    I don't agree. Thugs hurt the heart of a team. You need high character players, to some degree. A bad apple will ruin the bunch. You can get away with 1 or 2 bad character guys if you have legit leaders to keep them in line, but if you don't have the legit leaders, it's a recipe for disaster. This team loses games due from lack of accountability, focus and the like. Good teams don't have those problem. Do you think Marty Schottenheimer would allow these things?

  • Dammit. We figured this was coming. Just sucks man. I hate seeing wasted talent. 

  • What an idiot! Fuck he got a free pass by getting pulled over by the racist Strongsville Police and the NFL didn't do jack. Then the 4 games suspension followed by absolute shit play on the field that directly costed us a game. Now he gets popped for 10 games for the same shit and is late several times on top of that.  You would have thought after seeing how quickly Corey Colemen was out of the league after getting released he  would've learned something. He'll even his rapist mentor AB who is extremely talented but is fucken crazy is gone. Look I have no problems with smoking weed. Hell I had to smoked a bowls several weeks ago after getting 3 wisdom teeth. My dumb-ass dentist must think everyone is some meth head from Akron because he under prescribed me Norco so I self medicated, but I'm also not getting millions of dollars to play a damn game

    Meh. I remember the Browns with teams full of no talent choir boys that couldn’t beat a D3 college team. 

    Billy B brings in thugs all the time and gets them to play.  Just have to have a short leash. The Browns couldn’t have a short leash before, But they actually have talent at most positions now, so cutting a talented dumbass like Josh Gordon doesn’t destroy your offense or defensive. 

  • damn, no good!

    guess we're back to higgins

    John Dorsey is well known for drafting players with character issues going back to Kansas City. This isn't a new development.

    This one isn’t much of mistake, as it’s only a 4th rounder. The 2nd rounder on Corbett turned into a 5th rounder is more of a mistake. But like you say it happens.

    Dorsey is scoring big on other picks like Mack Wilson. Hopefully Chad Thomas and Redwine don’t end up being busts..both Miami guys too.

    Side note.. FYI.. 

    Likely not the dentist's fault.. Penalty for overprescribing a controlled substance is more than the labor cost/hassle of having you come back and get a second short prescription..

  • DIAL 1-800 Spliff or visit our website at www.gordoncallaway.com

  • Who replaced him on the roster?  If anyone?

  • “TaiNtEd CbD SUpLleMeNt“

  • JG II  - don't let the screen door hit you in the ass. Thanks Mr. Hodge for a good game last night.

  • IMHO release of Callaway is "addition by subtraction".

    Bring on Higgins. He is far more valuable to the Browns' offense than Callaway was.

  • Callaway is another UF piece of trash. He will be in jail or on the streets in no time.

    UF?  Florida?   Are you lumping him in with like Aaron Hernandez?
