I love Vambo swooping in with the links about stuff that happened hours ago (in the wrong thread).
He was simply providing evidence refuting Throw Long's post of 01:39 above. No problem with that... I was joking. Vambo is the link master.

A great pick up IMHO. I still hope we sign TP though.
You can't fix stupid but you can destroy ignorance. When you destroy ignorance you remove the justifications for evil. If you want to destroy evil then educate our people. Hate is a tool of the stupid to deal with what they can't understand.

Bleed...really...not true?
What did the Harvard boys do when faced with re-signing Mitch Schwartz?
...they went out and signed Alvin Bailey, telling Schwartz they had already gone a different direction.
Now tell me I'm wrong again... What did the Harvard boys so when faced with re=signing Bitonio?

I've said it before...don't know why...but Cleveland front office would rather sign some other teams leftovers than pay their own players.
...they've done it again...
Ya think Britt signed and Pryor did not. And its not over yet. Amazing.
Oh ok...lol 
I think Pryor might have mess it up. We treated him good, we made the best offer. He had two days to find his value and he didn't come to us to sign...We went and got Britt.
Also I think Gordon passed all his tests from the NFL to come back finally...Coleman, Britt and Gordon as a possible trio. And we got Al Saunders to still develop the 3 mid round picks from last year.
jmho - I would be different if we did nothing and lost him...but we went and got Britt...players have a right to test the market but not to expect us to wait for him to come back. this is not the Schwartz deal over again. We didn't sign a valid RT after he left and he came back BEFORE FA STARTED...Pryor did not.

I just hope Britt doesn't pull a Dwayne Bowe on us...Hopefully he goes out and plays lights out for us.

TP hasn't done anything bad. I just hope we still land TP. I see Brit as more of our 3rd WR.

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/201...ing-to-be-here/Receiver Kenny Britt decided to join the Browns without knowing who the quarterback will be in 2017. And that’s fine with him.
“We are going to work with the guys we have now,” Britt told reporters on Friday. “We can only hope or wish. That’s not my decision of who they bring in or who they don’t bring in. Whoever is here is going to be here. Whoever is going to be here is going to be here to help us win a championship.”
It’s a simple philosophy, and bluntly pragmatic given the current status of the roster. Britt, who had never gotten a significant payday in the NFL, will receive more than $8 million per year to join the Browns. So details like who will be throwing the passes don’t mean much — especially since Britt managed to gain 1,000 yards with Case Keenum and Jared Goff in 2016.
“They said they are going to get the problem fixed, and I believe that they will,” Britt said. “Regardless of who is the quarterback or what is going to happen throughout the season and OTAs, my job is to make the quarterback look good. Regardless of who they have under center, it is my job to make him look good.”
Britt arrives as Terrelle Pryor leaves. But Britt isn’t thinking about replacing the popular and promising converted quarterback.
“I’m not filling in anybody’s shoes,” Britt said. “I have my own shoes to fill to tell you the truth and walk around in. Whatever he did here was on him, and good luck to his career and his success that he had here, but right now, it is moving forward. We have the players that we have here and who is going to be on the sideline that we are lining up with each other. That is our main focus is us and who is going to be here.”
“Who is going to he here?” is the question Browns fans surely will be asking, over and over again until someone is. Specifically, a quarterback around whom to build.
Until then, Britt will do the best he can with whoever is here. Or there. Or wherever. Fair enough Kenny. Saying some good things. Sounds like the FO is pushing to get this QB situated. I don't don't see the option to help him get there this year. No draft picks really entice me and definitely no free agents if JG is truly not in the market to be traded.
