Hmm ... OK, let me get my hopes up here ..... and think about this.
WR1: Pryor WR2: Britt WR3: Coleman TE: OJ Howard ........
That could be quite interesting.
Oh, I forgot one more: Josh Gordon, off getting high.

He is relatively young and is by far (at least imo) a much better player than Garcon.
You are probably right in the 4 game thing is playing into this, but I would take AJ risks and all over Garcon.......especially at 16 million

I FULLY expect Pryor to be resigned today. It would be a shocker if he doesnt resign. Drew just made a lot of promises and there just wasnt that kind of market for someone that doenst know how to run a route and has a rep for being a bit temperamental.

I guess my point is that none of us really know how much interest he is--or isn't--receiving.
Plenty of time for things to happen. It's too early to make assumptions about any of that.

I dunno...
There has been a lot of movement on the WR front today (people landing or about to land on their next team). Not much more than a peep regarding Pryor.
There is no level of sucking we haven't seen; in fact, I'm pretty sure we hold the patents on a few levels of sucking NOBODY had seen until the past few years.

You are probably right in the 4 game thing is playing into this, but I would take AJ risks and all over Garcon.......especially at 16 million The NFL is really turning into a market based operation, where players and positions are more commoditized, even to a higher degree than ever before. There are more capable WRs being drafted every year (especially with the number of pass happy spread/ pistol offenses found in high school and college). Supply and demand. I wonder if this will be a growing trend, where WR salaries flatten over time?

As I said in my original post, my guess is that they are waiting to see if someone offers more $$$ than the Browns have or a better situation for similar money (Philly/Pitt are rumoured to be interested where he is from).
I mean it's obvious no one has blown him away with a 14 million dollar offer like he wanted or we wouldn't have NFL guys saying the Browns have the best offer on the table.

Very good news. Britt would basically be the 3rd guy replacing Hawkins and the OL would have been majorly upgraded.
If we leave FA with
Pryor resign Bitonio resign two new OL starters
That is a successful FA, and its been awhile since I felt that way.

I'd rather have Zeitler than Pryor, but I'd take both 
"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."

Yeah me to......KZ is one of the best OGs in the league. I want TP, but if I had to choose I'd take Kevin.

Not sure how much we need a guard, but the guy is a good player.
I am hoping for both.

I am hoping for both. He is a power scheme guard. We need him in our system. RG was a big problem last year. We can used that interior push. It would also help elevate some of our center issues.

We need players, and I love Greco, but KZ is a lot better. It also allows Greco to join the comp at RT with AP,CE, and Coleman. The winner is the starter, and in Greco's case you have a guy who could backup potentially 4 spots on the OL when injuries happen.
He might get cut though as we will have spent a ton of money on the OL if we sign KZ

Just a wild guess, but perhaps going and getting Zeitler has less to do with the RG position, and more to do with having Greco competing for the center position.
At center, we have a number of guys that have injury question marks, and are hoping for at least one to rise to the top and lock it down long-term.

RG was not a big problem when Greco was playing last year. If you wanna talk post-injury, than I understand. But, Greco is a very good player and Bitonio is another good guard.
I am not complaining about getting the guy. I am just saying that I don't think G is an area of need.

He broke one of the big stories a couple of years ago. (though I cannot remember the story, his name stuck with me)

That's a really good point.
We should have enough guys with talent in the building to iron out a really good line for the upcoming season.

I hadn't thought about that Jester. I hope your wrong, because Greco could be killer depth but it is a possibility.

There are several people all saying the same thing about Pryor. It looks like Sashi Brown (and friends) might have played this perfectly.

Cleveland's offer for Pryor is the best on the table and the market is "not what he expected." I wouldn't wait too long if I was him or the offer could get pulled. He could get "schwartzed".

I was thinking this might a lesson the front office learned from last year. Leave the offer out there and don't get offended if they shop it around.

Just think how great the new improved online and WR corp would look with Jimmy G at QB.
Just saying.
Am I the only one that pronounces hyperbole "Hyper-bowl" instead of "hy-per-bo-le"?

To put it in terms that Jimmy Haslam and Sashi Brown will hate to hear...
...if Pryor is not re-signed..every time that Terrell Pryor starts a game and Kenny Britt does not!
...every game that Pryor has a big game and Kenny Britt does not!
...every time that Kenny Britt has more dropped passes than Pryor has!
...every TD that Pryor has vs Kenny Britt!
WILL BE MAGNIFIED IN THE CLEVELAND PRESS AND MEDIA, with the questions directed toward Dee, Jimmy and Sashi why they didn't re-signed one of their own players, Terrell Pryor!
Kenny Britt is about to step into a pressure packed situation, right along with Sashi Brown and ownership.
