Riffer X Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 Poor CardDawg, doesn't know that every post has the following information under his name: 1. "joined october 15, 2009" Was that really a year ago? My, how time flies. Or maybe that is when all the Nancy Boys left and, just like clockwork, new Nancy Boys replaced them. and... 2. "From: Sterling Hts. Michigan" Let me guess: You are a Pistons fan, you hate Ohio St., Braylon Edwards was the reason you started following the Browns (at age 11), and you get all tingly inside when you watch George Clooney movies. Zombo hahahahahahahahah, Zippy is cracking my ass up. Does he get tingly for Clooney like Lums does for his Derek Bear??? Woo hooo hooo some funny yit. Cards, you are welcome to your opinion just know that it is stupid is all. Why in the hell would we want to get rid of one of the best players in the NFL with a new regime coming in that will want to utilize the crap out of him for any draft pick? There are women fans out there that only know Cribbs, you wouldn't want to hurt them would you? Cribbs is one of the best players I've ever seen in his prime and can do anything, so let's trade him and maybe get a pick like the one we used on Veikune. Absurd....

cambridgeho Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 Trade Josh Cribbs, that just sounds rediculous. Trade him for a second rounder, are you kidding. What do you think that second rounder would be making a year. The answer about 1.5 mi more than he is now. You never know what you are getting in the draft. Josh is only 26 and still can develope into a good WR. He will kick ass in kick offs for years to come. We have only scratched the surface with his potential. I think paying him 2.5-3 mil a year is what he is worth. He has earned every cent of that. He cant help that his agent totally didnt expect him to develope like he did. If you are against PAYIN DA MAN, you really havent watched him play and you need to do some better research on him. Also if you look back to 2007 when he made his first probowl, he pretty much by himself gave the Browns amazing field position and a great chance to win games. Now teams are afraid to kick to kick to him. If teams in the NFL are afraid to kick to you, then you must be a freaking beast. He is a superstar, and he will get his money. I Still cant believe the words Trade Josh Cribbs came off your finger tips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MunKy Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 I am pretty sure that any hardcore Browns fan would be against trading Cribbs. I don't think this douche knows jack about what trade value Cribbs would have. This douche doesn't know shit about how valuable Cribbs is to this team. This douche definitely doesn't know that you don't trade away the guy that is winning us games for some other teams "throw-aways". I am not going to suggest you kill yourself, but if someone else does, you shouldn't be so quick to dismiss them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, we will see who the douche-bag is come draft day and Holmgren dangles Cribbs out there to get teams to tip their hand at what they may offer.

Guest berniesipe Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 punt & kick returners have a short shelf life. giving cribbs a new contract is not in the browns best interest, in my opinion. I think we should trade him now while the market is prime for him. if we could get a high draft pick for him (a 2nd+ or even a 1st rounder), I think we should let him go. great guy, entertaining, explosive, good ... tradable. -CardDawg You are right, get rid of him now before you dump a wheelbarrow full of money in his lap. Once he signs that big contract, he won't be worth a dam. His production will fall off drastically or he will be hurt all the time. Look at Troy P on the steelers!

ballpeen Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 Can't say i am in any "camp", but if we decide to trade Cribbs, I wouldn't be against the move. IMO Joe Thomas is about the only untouchable on this club. I don't want to trade cribbs, but if it brought a player who in the long run is going to do more to help us reach our goals, go for it.

ballpeen Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 for the right price everyone is tradable question is what is the right price! although I don't want Cribbs going anywhere!!! Again, I don't want him to go, but the chances are pretty good he will. It all adds up... *he has a pretty high value right now *he wants a new contract Sometimes those two things are all it takes to start listening to offers. As someone said, he could be a part of what is required to trade for a decent QB. Cribbs, Williams, and a 4th rounder might get Kolb out of Philly.

calfoxwc Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 good thinking his value will never get higher and his performance will start to decline very soon................trade him now..............if we can get a 3rd or second rounder Rich ******************************************** RICH ! You're back ! Cool ! And I think you're wrong ! Cribbs is the kind of player, that if you DO pay him 3 mill a year, he's going to still play exactly like he always has played. It's who he is. Pay him a bit more than any other kr, and he should be good. But, if he has burnt his bridges, and gets traded, a third round pick would be undercutting the Browns in a huge way. If Mr. Cribbs really wants to leave, or really insists on being the most highly paid player in the NFL ? Well, about the least I'd trade for him, is for a swap of our second round pick back up into the lower part of round one. And a good RT. And a third round pick, too. And a 22" pepperroni pizza, with mushrooms and anchovies and a case of Frostie Root beer. That's what I think of the idea to trade Cribbs. @@ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calfoxwc Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 Oh, yeah, and another thing: The Browns won't trade Cribbs, because that's what the Indians do. They bring along a player in their system, he turns out to be an allstar pitcher, then they trade him so they don't have to pay him big bucks, and only have to pay small salaries to a couple of "prospects". I don't see it. But Cribbs needs to know, even though business is business, that it's hard for the Browns to just rewrite his contract, in a big way, and not have a bunch of other players demand the same thing. I just figure that a reasonable re-doing of his contract would be understood by the rest of the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrownIndian Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 I like the fan support that Cribbs is receivng , but whats with the untradeable obsession ? Teams are generally built around solid regular pieces - QB's , RB's, Linesmen, WR's but since was a team built around a kick return specialist ? The Browns offer to Cribbs was reasonable considering the fact that Cribbs: >> Was not so effective in WR's and was not a frequent RB >> The wild cat plays did not always meet with success >> He still has 3 years left in his contract It makes more sense if his contract was getting closer to its end date, but renew so early ? If an apple that costs 50 cents is really tasty, the shopkeeper might sell it for a dollar, but if he charges 5 dollars would you be buying it ?

ballpeen Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 Bet you a beer he stays. Plus, Philly ain't trading the QB of tomorrow for a return guy. WSS Sure, why not....I would probably buy you a beer anyway, so we will make it two. If it is at a tailgate, give me the heads up as I usually don't bring much beer....more a liquor drinker myself, so if that is a suitable substitute , I'll pour you a few drinks of whatever it is I am making that day.

BrownsBacker85 Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 I like that Lawson kid so I wouldnt mind the idea of trading cribbs...if the price was right, very, very right. If we could package Cribbs, someone else and a pick to Philly for KK I'd be down. A franchise QB is much more important than someone in Cribb's role. Just my opinion.

sisky fringo Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 bird in the hand is worth two in the bush>>screw the draft pick lottery theory. why gamble and create a hole in the team when you have the NFL all pro doing it for you? ...maybe best all time. but i'd listen to anything.

WSS No, Tennessee. and yes, Big River Brewery started here and they have a few fine selections. Pat and I are seriously planning a night at Put-in-Bay this summer...I'll catch you there...assuming you are still leading the Lake Erie Booze Patrol....we want to do that and hit a little restaurant in Vermillion...Chez Francois...it looked like it could be a pretty good spot. We just kind of stumbled upon it looking around when we made a day trip to the Island this past Oct. for the wine festival. I've been known to get shithammered, though it takes a while. Practice builds up endurance...I think you know something about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
