This guy actually took the time to write an article on why Manning won't come to the Browns? LOL

Go back and read your posts regarding resigning Hillis. You and BR have been driving the "we gotta resign Hillis so we don't have another hole to fill" train.

Gotta disagree with you here. He used to head "The Dawg Scooper". The only good articles he ever wrote were during TC where he gave stats from the 7 on 7s. Reading his other work is basically him just rehashing what Rizzo says on the radio.

Burden of proof is on you, thanks.

Also, I want Hillis to come back, so heckert/holmgren don't even think about drafting Richardson. Huge difference from what you are saying. Do you want to draft Richardson with the 4th pick?

Nice reach fail.

What? Resigning Hillis would be a luxury. I'm indifferent on whether they bring him back or not. To me, he's another injury prone Hardesty except he has one fluke 1000 yard season to his credit. I doubt the guy eclipses 1000 again in his career. If they don't have to overpay, fine, but they can get a good back with a 2nd or 3rd rounder.

I feel this way as well.

Exactly.

I don't want them going anywhere near Richardson with that 4th pick. Now if he falls to 15, they see value and want to trade up, I'd be ok with that.

Wouldn't be opposed at all. A lot of people here want to make the home run pick, but if it's not there, why try and force it?

I dont think Hillis is the catalyst for drafting Richardson or not. Regardless of Hillis situation I highly doubt we draft Richardson at #4.

All I did, was ask a legit question. Someone isn't much of a morning person.

Why so grouchy?

Also, I'm talking Stallworth pre-2008... when he was with New Orleans, Philadelphia, and New England. Stallworth from 2008 on has been a bum.

No you didn't. You asked who was going to be available in FA. Google it or go back and look yourself. Not that hard.

Don't be such a presumptual hard ass. I did ask who was out there... but I also asked who everyone wanted... and all I got was Pierre Garcon. lol

A lot of WR's on that list. I think the Browns will get one of them. More like a Manningham, Garcon, Meachem, Laurent Robinson type than a Colston, Bowe, etc. I think Heckert will make a play for Desean Jackson just due to their familiarity, if D-Jax isn't franchised.
