# Josh Cribbs JoshCribbs16
Thanks everyone, I love playing for the browns & put my all in to it, but it doesn't look good 4me at this point on returning... 5 minutes ago from TweetDeck
Ouch... might be some backlash here.

From the sounds of the press conference, Cribbs is asking for a lot of money. I heard his agent wants way too much. Cribbs deserves a lot but lets be serious, if teams stop kicking to him, how much is he really worth?
-
Exactly.
Now if he were as good at wideout or halfback sure.
I'd pay more but not insane money.
Maybe a per touchddown bonus.

he's under contract for 3-4 more years whats he going to go retire in that time frame? by the time he comes back nobody might want him
he can demand a trade or release but that wont happen unless we ask an Arm and a Leg so he needs to just shut up and deal with it and play great at something other then ST
-
The funny thing is....yes he will be returning. Why? Well, he is STILL UNDER CONTRACT!! Dont get me wrong he deserves a raise but not top WR or RB money.

We wouldn't have to ask a arm and a leg....Holmgren and crew might be happy with a mid 2nd rounder, and there are teams that might pay that.
Sometimes rates are set by trade demand. If we go out there seeking a 2nd rounder for the guy and get no takers, Josh and his agent will need to become more realistic in their demands.
This is all a part of the process. Don't get too worked up too soon.

2nd rounder for a guy who is nothing more then a great STer is an arm and a leg
Donte Hall was only traded for a mid or late 3rd rounder i believe when he got traded as a comparison

It makes me sick that this deuchebag of an agent makes a private email public at all. WTF?
I swear all agents are deuchebags.

this is probably the most hillarious part of it all
he Browns have offered Josh Cribbs an "insulting'' $1.4 million a year and his agents are warning that he'll leave the team for good if they don't pay him what he deserves.
theres nothing they or cribbs can do and have no leverage the only thing they can do is retire and even then i think he has to stay retired for a few years since the browns would still have his contract rights
They need to treat him fairly or he'll never play for the Browns again,'' said agent Peter Schaffer. "He will demand a trade and he will walk out of there and they won't see him for the off-season -- they won't see him ever again.''
he can demand all he wants (or his agent can) but theres nothing they can do they have no leverage
The proposal was for $1.4 million a year, not much more than what Cribbs is making now and well below that of other top kick returners in NFL. Four days later, they pulled the offer, saying Browns owner Randy Lerner wanted to wait until the new president was hired.
this makes sence and Cribbs agents need to respect this and stop thinking they are above the browns
those are just my opinions

Agreed. Josh, get over it. You (maybe your agent) screwed up. You agreed to something, now man up and live up to your contract.
Does he deserve more? Probably. But don't make the Browns look like the bad guys. He agreed to a freakin' contract, now honor it.
-
considering how busy mh is, this agent is a fool to try and force this at the current time, and expect immediate response. we essentially don't have a faculty atm, there is no one to work on his contract, let alone come to a deal on it. it seem's to me that josh's biggest problem is that he has a horrible agent working for him.

Again the result of a dysfunctional organization. This should have been taken care of already and now that the season is completed and he is the greatest kick returner of all time of course his agent is going to go all guns blazing. He could have been reworked a lot sooner for realistic money but the Browns had their organizational heads up their asses and now the guy wants to break the bank. He and his agent are looking at it as they have waited long enough.
If teams kick away from him he is still serving his purpose cuz they will still have great field position. He will also be an even bigger part of the offense next year, perhaps as a straight up RB. Now it's going to be negotiating hell with a bunch of lawyers serving their best interests and grandstanding. Stupid.......

Agree. He has been a very good ST player and more....BUT, what if every other "very good"player on the Browns tried the same thing? It does not set a very good precedence for the other players if they do give Josh a new contract. Thomas......thinking, Hey I am one heck of a good LT....I want a new contract too!!! Just don't see how a team can do this without causing other possible player problems. JMHO
