Any reference to a Yugo makes writing top notch........ seriously though, sounds like the Browns have realized they may have been fleeced.

Also the punter they brought in had a 75 yard punt to go along with that 14 yard shank.

Thanks Browns for your pro bowl punter.

Anytime you trade a 34 year old punter for a 4th rounder that's a win in my book. If they have problems it's worth it.

G-man taking advantage of a team that is purposefully tanking for picks.

Giving up a 4th rounder was alot for a 34 year old punter. However, considering our history with 4th rounders and how close we are to a superbowl, this may have been worth it. We'll find out soon.

Browns going brown.

"“Obviously, it wasn’t up to our standards tonight,” Jackson said."

Hue Jackson's first mistake is to think the Browns have standards.

Browns should sign Swayze Waters to handle punts & kickoffs. He can double as backup FG kicker as well, having done both jobs with the Toronto Argonauts in the CFL last year.

Pro bowl punter for now >>>>> Future bench player that may turn out to be nothing. It was a no brainer trade. Teams that under value their punting situations always get hurt by the punting game. Being this good of a team and possible super bowl team we can't dismiss any position on the team

Everybody loving Gettleman's move now...love it. 

[outlaw4]

I can already imagine the Browns calling Gettleman complaining they got cheated by getting Redford instead of another draft pick.

[Mother Grabber]

34yo isn't a big deal for a punter.  He can get another 5+ years in the league.  It's not like he's a DT or RB, where 34 is ancient.

We will be in the playoffs. It's realistically a 5th round pick.
