Notice how this thread was going well until Zwick wanted to go bitch mode? LOL, keep grasping for straws, because you got butthurt since I didn't agree with drafting Watkins.

If he's not you take a QB and WR at 26. and a RB in the second round. I didn't say you take a RB in the first round.. i said first 2.. reading is tough.
doesn't look like a lie to me, lolfail

I can't link since I'm on my phone but I already explained myself on post 2215. You just decided to be a selective reader and remain a butt hurt douche the last 4 pages of discussion. Try harder.

Are you older or younger than LJ? I'm trying to figure or whether I call you LJ jr or call LJ Zwick jr.

Anyway on to FA before Zwick further shits on this thread. I'm hearing browns are offering Tate 4 years for 24 million.

Yeah Tate wants to be in Cleveland, that deal has been rumored for some time. Sounds like it'll get done today.

Crazy. I remember us talking last season about the possibility of Tate in FA, us liking it for the most part, and now it's materializing.

In Farmer We Trust.

With Shanahan we will be switching to a blocking scheme Tate is familiar with. He's injury prone, but we'll still do a RBC so we'll still draft 1 or 2 RB's in the draft even if we do sign Tate. . As long as the moneys right, I'm ok with it.

Footwedge jokes aside, I think dion Lewis is gonna be pretty good. Tate And Lewis will be a good combo.

I agree. He showed a lot of promise last year. I still think they draft a RB or two.. of course saying a team is going to draft a rb at somepoint in he draft is pretty much saying the sky will be blue tomorrow.

I think I'd rather draft Hyde than sign Tate. Lewis and Hyde could be pretty damn good, and likely quite a bit cheaper, especially since guys like Tate aren't going to be paid less than that ridiculous deal that Gearhart signed.

Browns released QB Brandon Weeden.

Weeden was the 22nd overall pick in the 2012 draft and has no ties to the current Browns regime. It was inevitable that GM Ray Farmer was going to cut the cord on the 30-year-old third-year pro. Weeden went 0-5 as a starter last season and seems to be regressing. He took a whopping 55 sacks in 23 games of action and has a career 23:29 touchdown-to-turnover ratio to go along with a 71.8 quarterback rating. Weeden has no anticipation and doesn't have a feel for the pocket. We expect him to have a cold market.

Dog Pound Nation said the Browns called New England about Tom Brady.

I have a hard time believing this.

Hell, its worth a try huh.......

Probably was trying to trade him for Weeden straight up instead of releasing him.

Hyde > Tate in my mind, but we aren't guaranteed to get Hyde in the draft so i'd rather sign TAte than risk getting neither.
