    Precisely my thoughts. I'd give them a 2nd with Manziel but not a 1st.

    I don't think Bradford is worth a 1st and I don't think Manziel is worth anything. I'd give them a 2nd for Bradford if they take Manziel along with them.

    Bradford and JFF have both proven nothing in the NFL. No clue why JFF is worth anything to you br, he's thrash.

    He's not worth anything to me but a trade for Bradford should be a straight up pick. No need to throw any player in to sweeten the deal, even if it is someone with no value like JFF.

    Am I the only one failing to follow BR's logic here?

    I think he's saying even if JFF isn't worth anything right now it's not worth throwing him in there just to throw in there, in the off chance he develops any value going forward?

    If not that, no idea.

    Not sure why I was quoted by let me clarify. I think Bradford sucks and JFF sucks but I'd rather have Bradford if it gets Manziel out of Cleveland for good.

    Quoting bc I agree. Bradford isn't worth a first. Only thing he's proven is that he's made of glass, folds in the pocket under minor pressure, and has gotten less accurate over his time in the NFL. His "best" season was good enough for top 26 in the league. I'm shocked the Rams got what they did out of him (Foles and a 2nd).

    Top 26 is being generous. He's probably top 27 at best.

    Yep, that's what happens when you play penis flickers puss boy with contracts/restricted FAs.
  • Dr. KnOiTaLL
    In his defense, during his time with the Rams (2010-2013, no games played in 2014), his offensive lines ranked 26th (2010), 28th (2011), and 26th (2012), before jumping up to 13th in 2013, large in part to the addition of Jake Long. However, even then, they ranked 17th in pass blocking, with the interior of Chris Williams, Harvey Dahl, and Scott Wells leaving much to be desired. I'm pretty confident that he could be the best option we've had in a long time with the offensive line that we have.

    I have to disagree with Couch being on their "notable" list. Hell, I think Mingo has been a worse pick than Couch.....

    Another potential jersey "leak." If these are valid, I'm not a fan of the "Cleveland" on the front....

    I disagree with Couch and Brown. How are they ahead of Big Money, Quinn, Faine, Williams?

    Agreed. Weeden was horrible but nowhere near as bad as Quinn, and they were taken with the same pick (#22).

    Quinn was seen as the savior by many. Weeden was a WTF pick from the start.

    Well, an NBA title is within grasp, would say within 2, 3 seasons MAX if not already this year.

    Browns......might be a few seasons away

    I think the Cavs & Tribe have legit shots this year. I'm hoping the Browns have another shot in my lifetime.

    You're a moron.

    Anyway, that article/study just trash. Cleveland has been suffering for a championship?!?! Color me shocked. Did they get that story from oldnews.com?

    Cavs. No doubt they should win it within the next 2-3.
    Indians....possibly.

    Why does what he said classify him for "moron" status?

    To him, everything I say classifies me as one.

    Not denying that I am, but he has this infatuation with always trying to rip me.
