In terms of Gordon's suspension, we've been over this and over this, but his "brushes" are pretty much BS IMO. Cough Syrup, and .15 test is petty bullshit. Yes, he did it and it's on him, but his punishments don't fit the crime. NFL certainty didn't lolly gag playing penis flickers with the rooneys on his suspension. Just shows the inconsistency and good ol boys network with Goodell.
Cannot argue with those points.

Maybe I missed it but I'd like to see proof of Gordon's "cough syrup" claim.

We should trade both 1sts now for the top pick in next year's draft to take 12 gauge amirite? Get a real winner from the best university on the planet.

Then we should tank for Barrett season after that, SB dynasty next 15 years. EZ

Codeine in cough syrup he claims triggered a positive test when he was sick.

Oh, I know he "claimed" cough syrup but has it ever been proven that he tested positive for codeine? I've heard Gordon's claim but have never seen proof that it was, in fact, codeine. I don't know if what they tested for is public info or if it even needs to be diclosed per the new CBA. That's why I was asking if it had ever been validated? Could've been weed again and he claimed cough syrup.

Browns Signed Houser, TE last played for the Cardinals.

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/04/09/browns-sign-tight-end-rob-housler-to-one-year-deal/

1 yr deal. Should be set at TE with 3 on the roster.

"The Browns desperately needed someone to catch passes from the position after losing Jordan Cameron in free agency to Miami."

Jeezus, drama much PFBT?

Housler is a solid signing. Like what we did in free agency. Got better but didn't handicap our future.

Just shows how dumb certain Browns fans are.

"Omg we didn't sign Sam Bradford our entire season is fucked!!"

Just so dumb sometimes to read this shit.

9 receptions in 15 games for 2014. Solid.

i guess some people havent noticed that these shotgun spread QB's are pretty much a lock to bust at the next level, Jones wont be any different. How many top flight NFL QB's has Urban Meyer produced with his gimmick spread?

Cardale Jones will not be a bust. He's a prototype NFL QB in body, size, and skils. The man is going to tear it up. Book it.

How many top flight QBs are there in the NFL? And you expect Meyer to produce multiple of them?

How many was he supposed to produce? How many did your boy Jimbo (supposedly) produce before Winston? Your argument is flawed. And I havent read the whole discussion, but just from reading COA's post its obvious he wasnt serious.

I would say Jones doesn't really fit the mold Meyer recruits for his system.

He was a Tressel recruit. So as usual, Knightryder is full of shit.

The bottom line is he hasnt produced any , and you guys would like the Browns to draft a QB that played in system that has track record of producing busts in the NFL the QB position. Thats incredible.Did i say to draft to QB that played for Jimbo? the only thing that is flawed is how you think that any player that played at OSU is will be a no doubt success in the NFL

Jones played 3 fucking games, and all of a sudden he is going to tear it up in the NFL? I realize you guys are buckeyes fans, but some of you need to settle the fuck down.

Where did I say anything about an OSU QB?

Tebow is Urban's only bust in the NFL. What about Cam Newton? Alex Smith has had a solid career. Didn't live up to the #1 potential, but definitely not a bust.

Chris Leak? How can you be a bust when you're undrafted LOL. And my bad, I thought the discussion was about Urban and his QBs busting in the NFL.
