2015 Browns Offseason Thread

  • Commander of Awesome
    Just to put this into perspective: Browns just signed the same veteran bridge that helped lead Tampa Bay to the No. 1 overall pick.

    Who's next yr's top QB prospect?

    "Cardale Jones, Cardale Jones, Car-Dale Jones!" (Have to say it in Gus's voice)

    Cant make this shit up. But told ya'll I'd leave the site forever if Hoyer was on the roster next season. Looks like I'm here to stay. Come on Johnny.

    3 years for 15 mil. This team....unbelievable.

    Apparently we "went after him hard" according to Schefter. SUPERBOWL BABY!!!

    Having this conversation with a friend of him, and figured I'll throw it out here as well. What are you expectations for McCown?

    Mine, def starting wk 1 even though he's fucking garbage, benched by WK6/7 for JFF or whoever we draft for throwing 9+ ints. I think signing him was a complete waste of time, and cap space. I'd rather throw JFF out there and least have a 1% chance of optimism that he can not be terrible, than throw McCown out there who I history has already shown is terrible.

    ... Just waiting for 12 gauge. McCown is just the guy to get us in good position.

    Are the Browns even trying any more? McCown? Might as well sign me up as QB.

    Hey, they got that veteran presence they needed at the QB position.

    I think you misunderstood. He is saying fail this year, secure top pick, pick Cardale.

    Veteran presence from a trash QB. It's a bad signing. I don't see how this makes us any better; if we want complete trash at QB we still have JFF on the roster.

    ahhh ... I see now...

    At least McCown will accept a back up role if JFF beats him out.

    I agree with this completely. He'll be benched by wk 8 at the latest and wont be on our roster next yr. Book it.

    I don't think the Browns are done addressing the QB situation. If they are putting all of their eggs in the "1-10 versus the juggernaut NFC South" McCown, it's going to be an ugly season.

    Have heard they were still exploring the Sam Bradford option.

    Which makes him preferable to Hoyer IMO

    This.

    I also don't think they are done exploring the QB position. I am not even sold mccown will win the starting spot, but regardless I think he will be a good vet instead of handling it the way hoyer handled it.

    It seems like the Eagles are looking to throw the sink for Mariotta. If I'm the Browns I find a way to get involved in a 3 team trade to bring foles to Cleveland.

    Getting Foles in a 3 team deal would be ideal. Regardless McCown sucks, and we could in store for another:
