Alkid3 Posted March 9, 2016 Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 Word is Travis Benjamin is out of Cleveland and heading to San Diego. Sad to see him go. Watched him grow over the years. Cleveland shouldve resigned him. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbluhm86 Posted March 9, 2016 Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 It sucks to see him go, but it's completely understandable. He served his time for four years on shitty teams and under a complete trainwreck of a front office, and probably wants to play for a contender at this point. I wish him luck (except when he plays the Browns, of course). Browns F.O. has burned most of its bridges with its near constant mismanagement, so they're going to have a difficult time retaining quality FA's until they actually get some winning seasons under their belt and show progress. This team rebuild is going to be mostly draft-driven for the near future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gftChris Posted March 9, 2016 Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 A contender? You mean the team picking above us in the draft, that has the reigning champs in their division? Yeah, I can definitely see them making a run next year. I would like to have kept him, at the right money. We drafted him, developed him, and he's a decent 2/3 receiver and PR. But, those guys are not so hard to replace. I *really* want us to keep schwartz though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombo Posted March 9, 2016 Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 He's replaceable. I'm glad he had a nice season and is going to get a good contract. But he's a little small, a little fragile and he isn't going to get faster as he gets older. Just a part. But a part that now has to be replaced. Farmer's damage to this team will continue to haunt us for awhile I am afraid. Zombo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting a bit older, he can still play fast in their weather... btw, he lived in Florida... went to Miami. He'll do well in the hot weather. But good luck to him, they offered him a contract he couldn't refuse, and the Browns have other needs and couldn't match it. He was a round 4 pick back then, he can be replaced.

The Gipper Posted March 9, 2016 Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 Southern California or Cleveland, OH? that's a real tough choice Actually, it is. In a study about lifestyle, Cleveland beat San Diego in like 11 out of 12 categories. This included things like cost of living, crime rate, housing costs, congestion, unemployment, education ....Cleveland even beat SD in sport team success. San Diego won 1 category: milder weather. (and Cleveland fared the same vs. LA...except the part about sports teams) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gipper Posted March 9, 2016 Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 exactly. san diego is no contender BUT they do have the best weather and the best looking women in the US. I am not sure about the women. Perhaps they simply have the most scantily clad, most botoxed women. That was not part of the study. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zombo Yea, agree about the smurfs. Bring back the Flying Js: Josh Gordon, Josh Cribbs, Jordan Norwood, Josh Cooper etc. Well, not those guys specifically....but bigger receivers. Pryor adds to the average height. Of course, so did Vince Mayle....proving height alone isn't sufficient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mudfly Posted March 9, 2016 Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 The fact that they gave Pryor a third round tender says they think he's viable.....and, though I know no one wants to count on him(and I get why), they must be banking a decent amount on Gordons return.....

hoorta Posted March 9, 2016 Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 Dwayne Bowe According to nfl.com remaining FA WRs- Anquan Boldin (no thanks), Mike Wallace, Mohamed Sanu, Rishard Mattews, Jermaine Kearse, Percy Harvin (no thanks), Brian Quick (never heard of him), Rubin Randle (ditto) Slim pickings guys.

The Gipper Posted March 9, 2016 Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 Someone must have not told him that Joe Thomas is going to the Hall of Fame. I think it is time to stop this fucking charade. This franchise is a joke. The team needs to be sent to another city and renamed. The Browns died with Art Modell. Why keep kicking the corpse and expecting the Lazarus effect? Nobody wants to play in Cleveland, FYI, the Browns will have a full training camp roster...and a full 53 man season roster. And they will all be glad to play and collect their paychecks. But....one aspect of your statement is probably true: Nobody that wants to be vastly overpaid will want to play in Cleveland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jiggins7919 Posted March 9, 2016 Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 So...we're probably going to draft QB at #2, sit him all year (or until McCown injury). We have lost Benji and Mack, and I'll say Schwartz is gone too. Jesus, who is left that you want to see? The only player I really have hopes for is a WR that hasn't played in a year, and that is one joint away from never playing a snap in the NFL.
