Why wouldn't the Bills exercise EJ's option at this point. Didn't Whaley call him the best backup in the NFL? If that's the case, we should be locking him up.

for over $11 mill?

At at the price tag of more than $11M? No!

The #Browns are not picking up the fifth-year option on LB Barkevious Mingo, source said. Needs to have a big year with the new regime

EJ could still be here in 2017 and beyond. He's just not getting hot money for doing it. I could see him sticking around. He might not get a lot of chances elsewhere.

They have 5 QBs. They won't take it.

 

The Browns have 5 QBs and 142 WRs. They will be the first team in history to go one-deep at every other position. #Moneyball

Obvious eball. WRs score more touchdowns than anyone. Why have a DT? How many touchdowns do they score?

Bob Griffin

Josh McCown

Connor Shaw

Austin Davis

Cody Kessler

 

You're probably right about that, though I'd rather have EJ than at least 3 of those guys. Wonder if a mid-round pick next year could get it done.

They'll keep Griffin, McCown, and Shaw. They'll put Kessler on the PS and release Davis.

This fifth year option thing seems like a pretty reliable way to determine whether or not a guy was a bust, or at least a disappointment. Looks like O-linemen are not faring too well, including the two "can't miss" guards (Warmack and Cooper) who were drafted much higher than guards are usually taken. Seems like O-line might be one of the more difficult positions to project at the next level.

EJ's playing for his career this upcoming pre-season.

 

He'll be in the NFL with some team after this season given how bad the backups are in the league.

Here are some players who had their 5th-yr option picked up:
