Josina out here stirring up some rumors on her IG page

josinaanderson 1–on-1 with #Browns WR Amari Cooper just after he came off the field from the first day of mandatory camp today. Cooper has the challenge of adapting to Deshaun Watson and Jacoby Brissett at the same time and being ready for whatever this season brings. The 4x Pro-Bowler is also embracing his statesman role among the younger receivers here. Interesting to see if Cleveland adds another WR to the group—say like Robbie Anderson in a potential trade. Just a thought. Not a report.

I don't want Mayfield, but that is because I don't think he is the answer to anything other than getting to mediocrity. The possible exception is if they believe Corral will not be ready this season, but is "the guy."  It is kinda tough to conclude both of those conditions at the same time, especially in the next couple of weeks.  Even if it is true, the best option may still be to let Sam stink up the joint, pick up a first-round QB in 2023 and then sign a vet to round out the QB room.

That said, if they want to take the Sam mistake off our hands in exchange for us sweeping up the ashes they created with Mayfield, I'd be okay provided any additional compensation is about round 5.  Much more than that we are basically just rinsing and repeat the same desperation that got us Sam.

The Browns screwed themselves with Mayfield.  They created a situation that ensured he was not going to play there again and did so for a guy who may not play there at all even though they traded away a ton of draft picks to make the deal.  I would not be inclined to throw them a life preserver. 

I'm sure they are sitting in Cleveland thinking "these are the same morons that traded a ton for Darnold and then backed the Brinks truck up to his door."

So Baker for Robbie, straight up?  Which includes them eating most of Bakers salary?  That still leaves us with our little Sam problem....however with the savings for trading Anderson we could probably just say fug It and outright cut Sam.

We already have plenty of mediocre QBs on the roster. There is no reason whatsoever to add another one.

We don't have any mediocre QBs currently.  Mediocre would be a massive upgrade to what we currently have.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By cranky · Posted

      Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      That's why I say we have to keep looking. Even if you believe Bryce is the guy, KP and Grier are not and who knows if King is anything more than a gimmick player, we should be active in improving our 2nd QB spot. Season ending injuries happen, and you don't just want to roll over and give it up. How many starters have we seen come from the ranks of backup? Having 2 potential starting QBs is one of the best problems we could have.

      Eh, it’s more on how bad the refs are. Some of these calls against the canes are no calls
