Bell pisses me off. Hate that fucker but man he is good and with him they could be a legit contender.

They should absolutely dump him. If he's still in the league in 2 years, I'll be shocked.SportsAndLady;1813229 wrote:Maybe the steelers should dump Leveon Bell then, right? I mean, he's "on a path to destruction" with all his weed problems too!

Is he 1 strike away from kicked out, or is his next a year long?thavoice;1813239 wrote:Bell pisses me off. Hate that fucker but man he is good and with him they could be a legit contender. Another incident and I think they should get rid of him for whatever they can.

Pretty sure next is a year long ban. At that point, as browns fans know, what are you really gonna get for him? I would likely push to get rid of him but if that window is still there with Ben, Brown et al then man it makes that decision harder to make. The window is going to close and close quickly with BR getting older, Brown about to break the bank.Benny The Jet;1813244 wrote:Is he 1 strike away from kicked out, or is his next a year long?

Hue Jackson: "Today really is the last Josh Gordon comment I want to make. What's best for our football team is that we move on." #Browns
Welp....glad I drafted Pryor.

They took a risk and lost. Doesn't mean they made the wrong choice. Their ideology was right. You don't trade/cut a player because he can't stop smoking weed because the risk of him signing for another team and getting his act together and going on to 10 pro bowls is far too high when the alternative is just to do nothing.sleeper;1813256 wrote:So glad we took the risk on keeping him.

I can see the Steelers running Le'Veon Bell into the ground this year and then letting him walk. The RB class is stacked next year and there's no way they are giving Bell a massive long-term deal.

Agreed they took a risk; they chose poorly; they were wrong.
Admit it.

The Browns did not make a mistake with Gordon. Gordon made the mistakes and is now going to be out of football.

Right? Gotta love when redneck chimes in. Don't forget to mention he cares more about Cleveland teams losing than any one of his "teams."

I would like them to trade players that can't stay eligible to play more than a few games a year. Especially if there are trade offers on the table.SportsAndLady;1813302 wrote:Cool, so you want the Browns to trade away every single player that gets in trouble. Got it.
Not sure why this concept is over your head but its likely due to your unwillingness to admit that the Browns made a poor choice.

So does anyone (S&L) actually watch games? Watson hasn't looked good since Alabama last year. Not saying Kizer is awesome but if you love a qb and need one, Watson isn't your first pick
I'd be ok without a qb but if you're in the camp of must need one, it is far from clear cut

Reality!
S&L? The Browns agree with me as well. If Gordon didn't give one last finger to the Browns by entering rehab, the Browns would have likely got a 3rd round pick at worst.The Browns had discussions about Gordon with other teams as recently as last week and were looking to acquire a first- or second-day draft pick, sources told Schefter.
