Jake Signed with Cleveland

Good for him. Cleveland looks to be making all the right steps to becoming a good team.

Hate the guy or not, he'll make a great backup to whichever rookie they draft/sign/start, whether it be this year or next. He actually has a legitimate chance to start in 2010.

Can't believe they gave him so much money....if that part is true. (He must have a good agent!) But, I am glad for him. He is a class guy. Hope he wins the starting job....who knows, maybe a change will be good for him

I...really hope for Jake's sake that the Browns draft oline early and often, Joe Thomas or not.

I'd like to know what makes you think otherwise. They stockpiled picks for this year, built a pretty damn beastly offensive line(Thomas/Mack are top 5 players at their position.) and brought in a quarterback that is clearly better than all of their current starters. Cleveland has many needs, and it's better to address their glaring defensive problems this year rather than waste it on a QB, especially when they could get a player like Berry that would INSTANTLY make their defense 10x better.

Jake is clearly not the long-term solution and Cleveland won't be a competitor in 2010, but if they draft well this year they could be in 2011.

    • They can get film of all the games? Every team? Wow! Who knew… Our games with them are big examples of why they are in  the CB market so hard.   It is the study they do getting ready for the games.  Preparing to play against is a little different than just analyzing film in scout mode. Deeper dive. Then you are analyzing post game too.  This goes to why players often change teams but stay in the division. The opponents know each other on a higher level.  Plus if you lost to us, you used to get fired. Now you have to trade your first round pick. Moving up on the world. 
    • I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).
    • It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
