He was put on the exempt list November 30th, meaning he would have been ineligible the last five games of the 2018 season... According to Rappoport, the NFL still hasn't finished their "investigation". Seriously- just how long can something like that take? Not hard to find the video on TMZ, if you want to make up your mind... His posse was trying to restrain him- which looks bad, he wasn't listening to common sense... Mostly shoving, and then kicking the chick on the ground... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It means that they....just like every single one of the 31 other NFL teams have programs in place for people of talent who have gone off the rail. They will assist them to get back on the straight track. I see Hunt as simple being a mirror reflection of yourself: You have come in here and have committed aggregious offenses......yet...you are still here being given a chance to redeem yourself. You should take stock....and see yourself in his situation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Louisville Slugger Posted February 11, 2019 Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 What does this mean for Duke Johnson? I have always felt we under used him in the first place and now he will be lucky to get 5 touches a game. What is his trade value a 5th rounder?

I'd say that nowadays Duke is more like a 3rd down RB who sometimes runs the ball. I'll never complain about having too many good players in a group...

CLEVELANDwantsPLAYOFFS Posted February 11, 2019 Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 Never hurts to have a 3 headed RB machine.. playing for a good deal at that.. they’ll probably be making way less the LeVeon combined Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tour2ma Posted February 11, 2019 Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 Assuming Hunt is cleared to play we improved our Offense and our STs... I wonder how Duke will do in NE? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigalow80 Posted February 11, 2019 Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 Let's see how long Hunt's suspension is going to be. I'm putting it at 8 games. i think, the browns are going to transition Duke over to WR. He's a perfect slot receiver, a position they need to make stronger. Also, Hillard played really well in the preseason at RB and KR. It wouldn't surprise me to see him become the back-up during the suspension, while Duke moves over. Duke can always be the emergency RB, if absolutely necessary. Once Hunt comes back it becomes a 60/40 split in Chubbs favor. Chubb did play in a RB by committee at Georgia, so it's not as though he isn't used to it working. If anything, it probably prolongs his career a little, not that those guys think about it that way.

tiamat63 Posted February 11, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 Hunt is still facing a possible lengthy suspension. He will need some time to pick up the offense. This includes groupings, calls, routes, checks, protections, etc etc. Good news is he gets the off-season work with the team .... I think? If this team is looking to make a playoff run then remember - it's a long season and having more weapons can't hurt. Duke still has the advantage over Hunt of knowing the offense and being a utility player between the RB and WR room. For a team that could put even more emphasis on the run and then seeing how involved White and Michel are involved in New England, I don't see why trading Duke is a foregone conclusion. You have 2 top 15 talents on your roster and both of them are on their rookie contract. Money is no reason to show DJ the door, especially right now.

I divorce my personal feelings from employability concerning most job. Never asked a waiter if he has had a DWI, never asked a Walmart Clerk if they have a past history of domestic violence and don’t care about NFL players history. It’s up to the NFL to collectively bargain penalties for actions and employability and if a person is eligible to play, so be it. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Kareem stays clean and we resign to multi-year deal, then Duke probably gets shipped out in 2020. If Kareem screws up we still have Duke. So I wouldn't expect anything to happen with the RBs until 2020 outside of Hilliard being released once Hunt is eligible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clevfan4life Posted February 11, 2019 Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 This is weird to me. I would think he knows he's not the #1 back so why would he come here to compete for reps with Duke? Dukes gotta feel like wtf man? Ive done ecerything u guys asked and now u go get a dude who slaps chicks in cleveland hotels. Weird.
