Beef Jerky Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 Eric Galko ✔@OptimumScouting Update on #Browns draft picks: 2017 - 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6 2018 - 1, 2, 2, 2, 3, 4, 4, 5, 6, 6, 7 11 picks EACH in next 2 drafts Now they need to draft the right players...
BillsFan130 Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 How does it look bad at all for Cleveland? A lot of people are saying wtf is Cleveland doing on this board and on the sites where it was reported
Beef Jerky Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 Didn't Houston make the playoffs last year? Yes they did b.c the division is garbage. And it might still be garbage next year other then Luck being back.
wppete Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 Oh, I expect them to go after him. But going after and landing are two entirely different things. I dont think any team would do this without knowing something....
Big C Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 Now they need to draft the right players... That's always been the problem for them.
Doc Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 Didn't Houston make the playoffs last year? Yes. And the Broncos won the SB the year before.
YoloinOhio Posted March 9, 2017 Author Posted March 9, 2017 @rapsheet From what I understand, the #Browns are weighing simply releasing Brock Osweiler after trading for him. NBA style
Doc Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 I dont think any team would do this without knowing something.... They know something: that Osweiler is crap. He was probably going to be released.
bilzfancy Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 Casserly just said you don't spend 16 million for a 2nd Rd pick and he's right
bobobonators Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 This. It is very intelligent, and I wish the Bills were thinking like this and rebuilding this way as opposed to chasing 8-8 You're right. We should chase 1-15 instead. Christ.
wppete Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 @rapsheet From what I understand, the #Browns are weighing simply releasing Brock Osweiler after trading for him. NBA style WTF is going on here?????? Can someone explain???? This FA season so far has been nuts!
Doc Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 Casserly just said you don't spend 16 million for a 2nd Rd pick and he's right They didn't spend anything. If they cut Osweiler, they still keep the 2nd rounder.
wppete Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 They know something: that Osweiler is crap. He was probably going to be released. That is true. He is Crap
Iron Maiden Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 If Houston lands just a so-so QB, with that defense, they'll be contenders......
artmalibu Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 Funny thing is Cleveland just got better at QB......
TheElectricCompany Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 @rapsheet From what I understand, the #Browns are weighing simply releasing Brock Osweiler after trading for him. NBA style So, they basically paid $16 million to turn a 2017 4th round pick into a 2017 6th and 2018 2nd. Bizzaro world.
Mikie's Bills Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 You use that money to bring in good players, not a bum QB and a draft pick down the road They still have $55M to spend on good players. They aren't winning a SB this year anyways and they can cut Brock next year with zero dead cap. Browns did well here.
May Day 10 Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 (edited) How are people not understanding that this is a good deal for Cleveland? Getting Osweiler doesnt put them against the cap in any way, nor are the committed to him. They are free to do what they want with him, pretty much penalty-free as far as competing goes. They landed a 2nd pick in 2018 and a 6th for a 4th. They keep accumulating picks, and when the time comes, they will have many options dealing with their bountiful cap space. They werent spending to the cap this season, and the plan is not to compete as of yet. This 'costs' them nothing as they need to get to the cap floor They are doing what the Bills should be doing. Tear it down to the studs, accumulate picks and quantity, look at a 3-5 year plan (currently in year 2), with the goal of being a perennial contender for a decade+ Edited March 9, 2017 by May Day 10
bilzfancy Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 They didn't spend anything. If they cut Osweiler, they still keep the 2nd rounder. they get the contract, dead money
