Seriously, the whole "Browns being Browns" thing is getting stale. It is an entirely new regime. They have a clean slate. They have made some awesome moves, have a ton of cap space, and have an embarrassment of riches in terms of draft picks over the next two years: - 2 second-round picks in...

My guess is the plan is to see how Brady plays next year. If he hits a wall (like Favre, Manning, et al. did out of the blue), they will move on from him and hand the keys to Garoppolo. At 40, Brady is also probably more likely to get injured. If Brady shows no signs of slowing down, they will...

Original programming is expensive though. One of the reasons they rely so heavily on shows like First Take is they are relatively cheap to produce; it's just a handful of idiots sitting there screaming at each other. They don't need to pay people to travel around the world, spend hundreds of...

It's not a fit at all. And why the hell would someone like Barnidge agree to come here to be a third tight end? He can probably be the #1 TE on a crappy team.

Well, most speculate that if the Pats hold on to Jimmy, they will franchise-then-trade him next year. I suppose it is a nice contingency plan though if Brady falls off a cliff this year (God forbid). Personally, I was in favor of trading Jimmy this year. I wish we would've worked out a deal...

The thing about James White is that he barely gets in touches in the ground game. We're talking about a guy who has 145 targets in 33 career games, compared to just 70 rush attempts. In many ways he is more of a hybrid WR than an actual RB. For that reason alone I don't look at our RB situation...

Completely agree. My thoughts exactly.

Sorry, but I don't "look like an idiot". You're trying to play the ignorance card, and you failed, because I know full-well what the Patriots offered long before you "enlightened" me. As Tony said, the Pats could've slow-played it and waited for the Bennett market to materialize. It's no...

If Brady has a game where he goes 23-30 with 400 yards and 4 TDs, but overthrows Edelman for what what would've been a 5th TD, it is okay after the game to say, "man, that was a great game, but it could've been even better if he hadn't overthrown Edelman." That is just an objective observation...

Oh, nice, the "let's blindly accept everything the GM does" routine. The front office isn't always perfect. They misread the market on Bennett too. If we had waited longer, we could've had Bennett at 3/$21M; instead, we have Allen for 3/$17.5M, and lost ~40 spots in the draft when our 4th round...

For all we know AP's agent threw out loose parameters of what they were looking for and the Patriots didn't bother offering because it wasn't in the ballpark of what they were willing to pay. Maybe AP's price dropped dramatically after another suitor bit the dust (i.e. Pats presumably acquiring...

Great post. This is exactly what I was thinking too, as far as your "estimated carries" breakdown goes.

NFL.com: "Opinion: Tom Brady is the best quarterback of all-time." PatsFans.com reaction: "Wow, I cannot believe the nerve of NFL.com. They just ran an article saying that Tom Brady is the best quarterback of all-time. I can't believe they would have the audacity to call him the best...

I cannot believe how sensitive some of the posters are this board are. It truly baffles me that some of you see these things as "shots". It legitimately boils on clinical paranoia.

Of course, but what I'm saying is usually the success is attributed to the general manager and his draft ability, rather than the organization as a whole.

I agree with your entire post, and especially these points right here. I'm sure the likelihood of drafting a starter in picks 1-5 is higher than drafting a starter through picks 28-32. Grouping success rates by "rounds" is totally arbitrary. Another thing that makes it really hard to compare...

Bills match offer "Wow, can't believe they are stuck with him for that price. I wanted him, but not at that cost. Besides, this drafted is loaded with RB talent."

Nice. He looks pretty quick.

Asinine fantasy trade offer by Barnwell. Sounds like that preposterous JJ Watt trade offer from earlier in the year.

I think they will match, but I would absolutely love this.
