posted by Crimson streakLooks like Shelton will be the next one to go. Maybe to Seattle for earl Thomas?
I looked all over and couldn't find a decent source for this. Just a bunch of random people on twitter. I don't see us sending good talent on the D-Line away.
I haven’t seen anything concrete either other than Dustin fox saying a trade is in the works and Lane from the OBR saying there are two in the works. But no mention of who
i have seen a bunch of randoms saying Shelton and Coleman have been rumored.
Absolutely not on Baker for me unless you can get him in the 2nd round.

Have also heard stuff that there could be a 4th deal before the weekend's over. Names I'm hearing are Earl Thomas and the Honey Badger. Danny Shelton, as mentioned, could be on the move too.

Yeah, I don't get this. The dude's main flaw is that he isn't 6'3". Other than that, he's the best in this class. If he's 6'2" or taller, it's a no brainer to turn in the card at 1. He's not a turnover machine like Darnold. He's not a potential injury risk like Rosen. And he CAN hit the broad side of a barn, unlike Allen.
I agree that with the drafting of Taylor, either Mayfield or even Lamar Jackson (later) could be the pick.
I imagine if you guys are already "hearing" about it, it means it's not happening.
With the addition of Landry, I could also see Duke Johnson moved. Duke was more of a slot receiver/RB than a pure RB and Landry will likely get most of these targets.

Huh? Just because Duke could catch out of the backfield, doesn't make him a slot receiver. He's still a RB and lined up the majority of the time in the backfield. That would make no sense to send out a good pass catching RB (especially in today's NFL) because we got one of the best slot WRs in football.
Well there it is, but underwhelming... Shelton to the Patriots for a conditional pick
#1 Josh Allen and 4 Barkley
Depending on Joe Thomas the next picks will be offense line, line back and defense players. wide receiver will be filled in with free agent
Haha welp, I was wrong. Fuck me.
Pretty sucky to send good talent on the D Line away to the fucking patriots of all teams for an underwhelming conditional pick in return.
That 2015 first round, donezo.

Duke Johnson will play the Cleveland Browns role of the much like Patriot's Edelman
Shelton wasn’t a fit. So I figured it was coming. Dorsey likes his pass rushing DT’s. I don’t like the compensation for him but that’s most likely the best they could get for him

Agree...
.more speed, quickness than Sheldon could provided
Browns just completely undervalued Shelton. I could have possibly been convinced on that trade if they just sent Shelton, but why include a 5th round pick?
Shelton will do well for the pats imo. He is only 24. They gave up on him way too early considering he has shown some flashes. Just another draft class we can mark as a complete failure 👍. The browns must have a record of first rounds picks that were no longer with the team before their first contract.

This.
Dont give me that “Shelton didn’t fit in our defense” bullshit lol. He was a good young player that we just gave up for practically nothing. He’ll be a pro bowler in NE in two years, book it.
After reading some of the stuff on twitter I guess it makes more sense. Browns weren’t going to re-sign so you get a pick while you can. He also only played 44% of snaps last year

He was hurt a few games in there, leading to low snap %.

This. I look for Dorsey to go hard after one of his guys, Dontari Poe, in FA to replace Shelton.

Sounds like they are just swapping two mid round picks but no details yet.

I saw we gave up this years 4th to get a 3rd next year
Shelton was in horrible shape last year, which is a big part of why he sucked, and probably contributed to his injuries. If New England can get him to lose some weight and improve his conditioning, he has a chance to be good.
One area the Browns should improve in massively this year is in the red zone. Taylor protects the ball very well versus Deshone "How's he going to screw this up" Kizer. This in itself should equate to 3-4 wins.
I love the fact that Hue & Zampese lobbied for McCarron while Haley & Dorsey liked Taylor. For some reason I think Hue believes he's running this organization.
posted by SportsAndLadyThat 2015 first round, donezo.
Just saw a stat where the Browns have no 1st round players (that they drafted) on the roster from the 2009 through 2015 drafts. Jesus...
Also saw that part of the reasoning for these trades was that there could've been concern about the Browns being snubbed in FA, after 0-16, so they traded for their guys instead.
I'm remaining skeptical, but I like the trades and the direction we are going in.
