...ok

Barring a breakdown in negotiations, #Browns are expected to sign veteran WR Kenny Britt later today, source told ESPN.

Ian Rapoport
✔ @RapSheet The #Browns are signing WR Kenny Britt, source said (as @caplannfl reported). 4 years, $32.5M.

I actually think Britt is pretty underrated. He's had super shitty QB's his whole career. Then again, if he's choosing Cleveland, he's probably signing up for that again...

The Browns probably view him as the same type of WR as Britt, and it makes sense. I don't have an emotional investment on Pryor.

Jason Cole‏Verified account @ JasonColeBR now 8 seconds ago It appears the choice for G Kevin Zeitler is between # Saints, # Browns. # Jaguars appear to be out now.

I'm fine with letting Pryor walk, if he actually turned down 12 mil...that's insane. Britt is a "meh" move...again, feel like they overpaid, but they have to

Overpaying doesn't mean much with the cap room the Browns have and the fact they are garbage. Britt is decent, and agreed if Pryor turned down $12M a year he's an idiot.

Zeitler would be nice.

To me, the contract Britt is getting is pretty much telling Pryor what he's worth.....about $8 million/yr. Their numbers almost mimic each others and they are about the same age.

Zeitler is one of the players on my wish list.

Agree, to a point. Making bad/big free-agent signings can REALLY screw you up in the long run. But, again...I get why they have to pay.

And Zeitler would be big.

Adam Schefter‏Verified account @ AdamSchefter 5s 5 seconds ago Browns are signing G Joel Bitonio to a monster extension, per source.

Adam Caplan‏Verified account @ caplannfl now 7 seconds ago # Browns very busy today: As @ MikeGarafolo said, team is trying to sign free agent C J.C. Tretter.

Yeah, I know...not everybody's favorite but he's been hitting on his Browns predictions lately...

Incarcerated Bob �� @incarceratedbob **BREAKING NFL NEWS**
Browns finalized deal with JC Tretter (C) barring any last minute snags
Talks with (OG) Kevin Zietler gaining steam


If they get Zeitler, this will be a pretty decent O-Line with only the RT position needing to be addressed. Now, get the damn QB !!!

I LOVE them going after fixing the line. The draft is weak in OL

Rosenhaus is starting to look like a dumbass with his demands for Pryor. Torrey Smith just agreed with Philly for $5 million/yr and Robert Woods is supposed to sign for about $8 million/yr. The sweet spot for Pryor should be around $7-8 million/yr. Looks like all of these other WR's are signing elsewhere and TP's options are starting to dwindle.

Sounds like the Saints agreed with Ted Ginn & a LB from the Panthers, which might bode well for the Browns adding Zeitler. Saints don't have a ton of cap room.

I love the Britt and tretter signings. Adding zeitler would be huge. Bitonio coming back healthy while adding zeitler and tretter is a major upgrade. The only thing that would make me happier would be going out and getting garrapolo

if we signed Zeitler, I wouldn't cry about it, can never have enough lineman. But it's a lot of money for the line, and I really like Drango/Coleman and want to see them get reps.

Zeitler is 5x the player that drango and Coleman are. Would I be upset if we don't get him, no. But he would be a huge upgrade.

Also bitonio's extension is worth about 8.5 a year. Not bad at all if he can stay healthy
