Kvoethe Posted March 7, 2018 Report Share Posted March 7, 2018 DAWGS BY NATURE FANPOSTS STUBHUB MORE Joe Thomas hopes to let Browns know before free agency about his status, guesses Cleveland will get A.J. McCarron And more from a local awards banquet.E Patrick McDermott-USA TODAY Sports The Northeastern Ohio Chapter of the National Football Foundation Charity Scholarship Dinner took place Tuesday night, and Cleveland Brownsleft tackle Joe Thomas was present. Former Browns quarterback Bernie Kosar snapped a picture of him, still looking as slender as ever: Dave Chudowsky of WKYC had the chance to talk to Thomas during the event, and he posted several tweets recapping what he said. Here are those tweets in bullet point form: He has not made a decision yet (on the 2018 season) but is close and wants to let the Browns know before free agency. Said it’s kind of like picking a college, one day you think it’s this school, the next it’s another. He’s disappointed that Sam Darnold did not throw at the NFL Combine. Asked whether the Browns should take a quarterback or best player at #1, he said it depends on what they do in free agency and they are in a good position to go either way. If Thomas had to guess, he’d say that Cleveland would end up with A.J. McCarron as their quarterback, but also mentioned alternative options like Case Keemun, Sam Bradford, and Nick Foles. He hasn’t been offered any TV jobs yet, but he is exploring options and putting himself in front of the decision makers because the end is coming sooner than later. Thomas is due a $3 million roster bonus on March 18, several days after the start of free agency. So it makes sense that decision time is coming soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dutch Oven Posted March 7, 2018 Report Share Posted March 7, 2018 The fact that he's waiting this long to make a decision makes me think he's retiring... If not, this is his last season tops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jiggins7919 Posted March 7, 2018 Report Share Posted March 7, 2018 I think he really wants to play but I have a feeling that he can't get physically ready. Joe isn't going to play unless he KNOWS he can be effective. A guy like Joe is going to have a very good understanding of what it takes to play at a high level, and if he doesn't think he can do it, he's not playing. That's what is taking so long...he wants to play and he's trying to wait as long as he can to see what happens with his arm. My bet is he doesn't play. I just can't see it happening. He looks like he's lost 50 pounds, and there's no way he can get that power back. Not in time anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbluhm86 Posted March 7, 2018 Report Share Posted March 7, 2018 Even if he retires as a player, it'd be cool if he could stick around in a FO or assistant coach capacity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canton Mike Posted March 7, 2018 Report Share Posted March 7, 2018 Joe will do what he thinks is best for Joe & his Family. I'm good with that as he has been nothing short of being a classy, loyal Browns' Player & a totally positive influence in the locker room, off the field, & ON the field. He deserves the right to go out as he sees fit...PERIOD! Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canton Dawg Posted March 7, 2018 Report Share Posted March 7, 2018 Joe’s lost 50-75 lbs since his injury, I think he’s going to retire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calfoxwc Posted March 7, 2018 Report Share Posted March 7, 2018 My hunch is, he will play one more year - and hope they can win some games and then he can retire happy. But if he retires now, great for him - I hope he stays active with the Browns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
