TopDawg31 Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Why? Everything is going in the right direction it appears, we have not been accustomed to such results since like 1984. Excitement is running rampant in my veins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canton Mike Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Kudos to Jimmy, Dee, Sashi & Company, who just keep doing positive things. Morale on this Team has to be "through the roof" right now & we aren't hearing the "same old Browns' stuff" from the media anymore, are we? Upbeat new confidence this year & I can't wait until we hit the field. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mudfly Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Great move!....this makes me happy as a clam......In December, I posted a challenge to Shashi to sign Collins and proactively go after Bito and Kirksey early.....IE: Sign em now! and he did it....signed all 3......totally shocked....amazed....

If he had listened to you, he'd have been gone a year ago!!! LOL Mike Ha!....are you amazed? Even more amazing is that Ive never once advocated firing Shashi or Hue and have always defended the need to keep them.....so, no, he'd still be here..... Ive also applauded many of his moves and picks(Ogbah, Nassib, Collins, Peppers, Garret, Njoku....gave props for this draft, etc)...musta missed all that.....I also pointed to his stupid moves too(which have been many)...just call it as I see it....both ways....as it happens..... The good news is that he's on a pretty good run in 2017......good draft....a good FA or 2....mixed with a couple boners....but Im seeing some good stuff......like these 3 signings, which I said Id give him BIG props for, IF he pulled it off.....and he did....

jiggins7919 Posted May 31, 2017 Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 We're keeping our young talent, and that's BIG for us. I really hope our front office doesn't get any shit about the Terrell Pryor fiasco because I don't think that was their fault. Pryor leaving completely screwed our offense, and I'd be lying if I said I felt good about our WR's. The way it looks now, Corey Coleman is shaping up to be a Sammy Watkins type. He sure LOOKS like he could be good, but the guy can't stay healthy. Kenny Britt will hopefully be serviceable, but that's about it. Who is our "game breaker"? Coleman? Can he stay on the damn field? Is Britt better than I'm giving him credit for? Can we really depend on David Njoku stepping up as a 20 year-old rookie? Tight ends historically struggle as rookies, and I have to think a YOUNG rookie won't fare TOO much better, right? Hopefully I'm wrong. Njoku sure looks the part, but history tells us TE's take a bit of maturing before they make the leap. Anyways, back to the point, and that's keeping young talent. Who is next, Crowell? I thought it was smart of him to show up to OTA's, and I think that's the kind of thing that will help him get a deal done. He's perfect for the type of running we want to do, and he's improved as a receiver as well. I'm still not fond of cutting Barnidge, even though I know he's the opposite of what our front office is looking for (slow, older, and sort of expensive). Still...I liked him, and cutting him places a tremendous amount of pressure on Njoku, right? We have a young nucleus on defense, and that's awesome. I'm really trying to let it go, but I'm STILL pissed about not drafting Malik Hooker. It just seemed SO PERFECT. Ugh. Don't look now, but we have some talent on the front 7, and that could be what gets us back on track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't look now, but we have some talent on the front 7, and that could be what gets us back on track. We either need one of the other 50 WR we drafted to step up or run the hell out of two tight end sets. Duke can sub in at Reggie Bush type receiving too.

Bigalow80 Posted June 1, 2017 Report Share Posted June 1, 2017 Not sure why people are surprised the browns are doing this. They told us this was their plan. Gut the roster. Add talent through the draft with draft picks for now and the future. Sign select FA's and then re-sign the young nucleus to the team. Unlike previous regimes, this FO is executing their plan so far. Wins will be the determining factor, but I love what they are doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrb12711 Posted June 1, 2017 Report Share Posted June 1, 2017 It's just so damn refreshing to have a guy we took in the mid-rounds develop and turn into a long-term player. That shit basically never happens I feel like so this is such a breath of fresh air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
