Just starting a thread as the legal tampering begins for track news and signing specific to the Browns.
At DT, context and meaning are a scarecrow kicking at moving goalposts.

Von Miller seems to be the one big name to watch out for on defense. Also, there is smoke about Allen Robinson on offense.
"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."

I've seen both those connections as well.
Benjamin Allbright alluded to Von Miller possibly reuniting with DC Joe Woods and getting to play alongside Myles. But if Miller listened to OBJ, there is no chance. Haha.

Say there is something to this. What do we do with the QB position?

don't fall for these "according to sources" crapolla
A team is always suppose to listen to offers it doesn't mean we are shopping him around.
Hey if somebody gives us a deal we cant' refuse Multiple 1st round picks maybe a player or two who knows. Our only option is to get another QB from the draft.
So we won't be doing anything regarding Baker all the rest is BS cause I'm a journalist and it makes for a story as he is a popular figure. Hey let me make up a scenario involving something with Baker...phew got this weeks money in the bag...lol 
We are on the cusp of doing great things as a team lets build that D get another WR and win our division. Or we could cripple ourselves by getting a Watson not the figure we want to say who the Browns are. We better start working on signing Baker now and not wait where we end up losing him to FA.
Defense wins championships. Watson play your butt off!
Go Browns!

Hunter + Dart = This is the way.

The more things change the more they stay the same.

Of course the brown's aren't sold on Baker. If they were, they would have signed him to an extension.
Doesn't mean we are actively trying to trade him.
Am I perfect? No
Am I trying to be a better person?
Also no

I think Kirk will end up being too expensive but this shows that we are still on the lookout for wide receivers before the draft.

That's my thinking too...I heard rumblings a month ago that even Berrios was seeking 9 mll a year, which sounds steep imo...and Kirk is def. the better of the two, so they may price themselves out of our market.

I've seen $15 million per year for Kirk. That is too much for a slot receiver when we can just put Njoku or Hooper in the slot.

I think I'd rather see DPJ getting starter reps at inline TE than Hooper in the slot. Fortunately, I think they'd go to Felton before Hooper.

Allen Robinson, one year $8 million sounds about right.

It doesn't make sense in my head that Berrios was on the Patriots and they cut him.

Was really hoping for Berrios, and that's actually a good deal for an ace of a returner and a solid slot guy. So far the only bargain signing I've seen.

He flew under my radar until your posts. Would have been perfect. Economically speaking, 3yrs / 25M was a feasible contract. We would have had two terrific route-runners straight out of the gate... at 2M less than we were paying last year. And we'd have a %$^&* kick returner! The shores of Erie are famous for that epic roar. Closest we've been for years is "well, he's usually sure-handed, I don't know what happened there."

I liked Mack Wilson who never achieved his possibilities at ILB for us
So we went and got a rotational edge guy to give our starters a breather. btw any news on Takk? He still is on our roster. He gave us some good reps at DE before he went down.

Takk is a FA, and with his injury...may be awhile or into next season until he is able to sign with someone and pass a physical.

He went from backup to starter on a two year deal. Can’t blame him.
