Breaking News: #Browns RB Terrence West on trading block. On his way to take a physical with undisclosed team.
He also tweeted a picture of him at the airport.
Wasn't sure this deserved its own thread or should be merged with the FA/Cuts thread
Well, that's surprising. And confusing. Johnson's not healthy and Draughn is a scrub. Why?
wth????????? i mean what could we get for the guy?
wth????????? i mean what could we get for the guy?
6th Round conditional maybe? Who needs a RB?

Ummmmm.....well.....we do?
I think this site is assuming he is being traded because of the West Instagram picture. He might very well be traded but no one else has even mentioned him. I am very skeptical.
Yea I doubt there is anything to this one or it would have been everywhere by now.
yea. i dont think so either.
idk... im interested to see why he's on a plane.
who needs a RB besides us?
I'm wondering why anyone even cares. He appears to be a dime a dozen back with a 10 cent head. He's a JAG.
I'm thinking Colts, for a first rounder.

Why did you post this twice?
It looks like D4L posted the exact same thing twice.
Or I could be missing something. Wouldn't be the first time.
Someone had asked for a link. I think he was reposting it because of that.
I was joking actually... should have used the purple
LOL. Like I said, I miss stuff.
I'm thinking Colts, for a first rounder.
I wouldn't mind trading him. Johnson and Crowell with Draughn as the third is fine with me. I don't think West is that good. He reminds me a lot of Trich. If we can get a draft pick for him I'm all in.
Cowboys need a running back... maybe we can trade for their back up QB ?
West is a turd. I would not care at all if we traded him. Wasted pick.
[quote=texaslostdawg]Cowboys need a running back... maybe we can trade for their back up QB ? LOL
If he is traded, and the source given here is not legit at all, then my prediction is Carolina.
my guess was atlanta. if he is traded.

Agreed...I was advocating dealing Phil Taylor and TWest on draft day...Man we are easily the strongest fan base...We love a team that wiffs left and right on draft picks since our rebirth...and we are just as bad as picking them as we were 16 years ago....sad...West is Daniel Thomas 2.0 ...big back who dances around far too much
Cowboys need a running back... maybe we can trade for their back up QB ?
Took me a minute to realize who that was. Too funny.
Someone had asked for a link. I think he was reposting it because of that.
Yes, that's why I posted it twice ... forgot to hit the reply button sorry guys.
Anyways, I have no idea if this is going to happen ... I just find it odd that he's taking pictures from an airport this afternoon
I'm okay if West if traded... as long as that doesn't entail us signing Ray Rice.
I'm thinking Colts, for a first rounder.
And who will be the first to bring up a comparison to Joe...you know who?
Another "brilliant" move by "Text"
Another "brilliant" move by "Text"
No matter what happens, right?

I don't even know what that means Super... was it a bad move to draft him? then its a good move to trade him and get something right?
or is it a bad move to trade him... then it was a good move to draft him???
Not west, but super brown
West is a lot better than many of you are giving him credit for. I still don't see a link from a reputable source.

What evidence do we have that tells us West is good? He's got happy feet and his attitude is one of someone who has been the best RB in the league for years.
I would get as much value for him as possible as soon as I could.
(I agree with you about the link.)
I've yet to see anything either. I'm calling malarkey
I doubt he is being traded.
He would not bring any value in return and we don't have enough healthy backs to man the position.
The only way I could see this is if we are bringing in Ray Rice, but I still think it's a huge longshot.
I've yet to see anything either. I'm calling malarkey
West posted a picture of himself at Hopkins International Airport. That is the basis of these "reports." Also, La Canfora tweeted this:
Lot of chatter about Montee Ball's availability but if I'm a GM in the market I'd call CLE on Terrance West. Bet he might be had cheap...
La Canfora is in the tank for West because he went to Towson and grew up in Baltimore.
He would not bring any value in return and we don't have enough healthy backs to man the position.
If he's going to be cut, any value is better than that.
The only way I could see this is if we are bringing in Ray Rice, but I still think it's a huge longshot.
Our some other veteran back. Or a player cut by another team. I get the feeling the coaching staff isn't a big fan of West.

It's common for players to take off after the 4th preseason game. It's a mini vacation because I believe they aren't due back to practice until Tuesday.
I hope whoever came up with that rumor isn't going off West's picture. It could just mean he's taking off for the weekend.
I could wrong, but it just doesn't make sense to me.
I am not a fan of West. Hated drafting him that high, but man, this trade would be dumb even for Farmer.

Unless West is a turd and everyone (on the Browns) knows it. If that's the case then they should trade him now before anyone else figures out that he is a turd.
He very well could be. Maybe they see Richardson V 2.0 and want to rid themselves while they can get something. But I still have yet to see ANY other reports or rumor besides that one link
I could wrong, but it just doesn't make sense to me.

As always, it would depend on what we are getting back. You are assuming that no NFL GM would give up much to get him. But who thought any team would give a 1st rounder for trich?

I haven't seen the picture. Was he on a plane or at the airport? Perhaps his Mom or someone was flying in to visit and he was ther to pick them up.

Inside the airport at the gate, it looked like.
Looking back now it seems like a steal but at the time I recall a lot of people being upset, myself included. We were getting a late 1st for a rookie RB drafted 3rd overall who was coming off a 1327 total yard and 12 TD campaign and replacing him with Willis McGahee. They knew what we didn't and the rest is history

What? Most of you were screaming bloody murder about how freaking stupid Banner was for making that trade.
I am saying he won't be traded. We'll see....

Makes the most sense he'd be taking that mini-vacation. He's probably not the only one too. Once the season starts they'll be on lock down.
Though I did see Teddy Bruschi at a club on a Monday night in Vegas once, played the day before. Dude was bit of an a-hole. Though that could have been cuz I was hitting on the same girl he was....
I do remember some people being upset. I don't remember how many. I was sure surprised that we got a 1st rounder for him. Maybe I am not remembering exactly how much of an uproar there was.
But again, you never know what a team will offer. Suppose a team offered 2 1st round picks for West? I don't think that would ever happen but if it did he would be traded in a heartbeat. My point is, it comes down to the offer.
The uproar was HUGE!!! People clamoring for Banner to be fired. Saying we were tanking the season. Etc, etc
I wish we could pull up that thread. You would've thought we were moving to Baltimore again. Only thing you heard was "this front office is a joke"
Actually the board was down when this happened. So there was only the delayed reaction here.
The other boards weren't and believe me, there were tons and tons of posts on this board about how stupid Banner was to trade TRich and how he should be fired.
I wish we could pull up that thread. You would've thought we were moving to Baltimore again. Only thing you heard was "this front office is a joke"
I was just looking at that thread. I must say, I come off looking pretty good.
**Pats self on back**
Hopefully no one goes back and looks at the Colt McCoy threads. . .
I wish we could pull up that thread. You would've thought we were moving to Baltimore again. Only thing you heard was "this front office is a joke"
LOL.............that was fun rereading that thread.
Some quotes from the thread:
BpG - I didn't think it was possible to get a first round pick from a guy who was looking like a total bust. Was shocked and confused but happy.
YTown - I think that the front office made out like bandits on this trade. In an era where the RB position is largely devalued, and where you can find top end players in the 2nd round through UDFA market, getting a 1st rounder for a RB is astonishing.
Django - Thank you very much for the work to get this board back up
The other place is still the fickle dumpster board filled with homers and pitchfork people, what a waste of time.
The 1st 2 to support my assertion that a lot of people didn't think that we could get a 1st for trich.
The 3rd because I haven't seen a Django post in a while and felt we could all use a little DJ right about now. Plus, it supports what Vers said which is the opposite of what I posted. Guess the overall attitude toward the trade depends on which board you were on at the time.
My problem with West ...is that seems to fit his running style...East and west not north and south... Somewhat reminds me of T-Rich. Seems to dance and not have that ability to follow blockers and see holes.
And if he's not following protocol .. Pet wont stand for it
LOL.............that was fun rereading that thread.
Agreed!!!

You are really picking and choosing. Some of our posters posted on other boards and you surely passed over many negative posts.
Highlighting a few to prove your point isn't cool. I could do the same thing, but won't lower myself to resort to that type of posting.
funny to go back and read old threads like that (I like to read old prediction threads ... some good comedy) ... and yes, where's django been?
I limited myself to the 1st page and to quotes that were short and sweet.
There weren't many negative posts on page one. I didn't go past there.
I did cherry pick to show that my initial statement wasn't as crazy as the responses I got made me feel, not to prove any point.
And I did include one that suggested the other boards was up in arms as you remembered. And I pointed that out.
Was excited about the trade.....still excited about the trade
And still feel that way today, lol.
Guess the overall attitude toward the trade depends on which board you were on at the time.
The thing to note is that the thread was created more than a week after the trade. Reactions were more tempered as people had more time to digest it.

I got the news and was very confused at first. I then talked myself into very quickly.
A lot of posters noted initial surprise followed by: but after I had a chance to digest it ...
This is the only board I go to. So I never got to appreciate that other boards sentiments.
Just to piggyback off Jester, I do believe we have a tremendous (possibly the best) sports board on the internet. If you go to other NFL (and even Browns) fan boards, there is a lot of nonsense, stupidity, and immaturity.
Now I'm not saying we don't have some of that stuff sometimes
, but I really do think this is the most reputable place for Browns fans.
Agreed. We do get a little pissy with each other now and then but I think that has more to do with how much alcohol or weed (or rather lack of weed) consumed before posters side down behind the keyboard
Most of our posters have a pretty good understanding of the game of football. And when we disagree, there are sound arguments for each side. The differences are in opinion and interpretation.

Maybe some should have breathalyzers hooked to their keyboards.
I think its hilarious...posters telling us how much West is a bum and now this trade if done by FARMER it is the worst ever... 
Sorry that is just silly.
1. Who needs 3 starting RBs??? We made our decision that Crowell will be our work horse...enough said. We got Duke and then a hard working Vet at the #3.
2. Its easy to raid a practice squad of somebody we like even better for number 3 if necessary. RB is the easiest position to fill especially if you WANT a #3 RB. We might even go with 2 and a FB? Get somebody on our practice squad we can bring up.
3. Chicago Bears...we know ONE RB...who are the other two.
Now you want 3 vying for the Go to back...
4. I think Wilbert Montgomery alluded to this all along as he kept stating he wants ONE RB to step up and become that Go To RB...We don't need 3
5. All we really now is that possibly he left to go get a medical. I think he will pass if that is the case probably gone. No sleuth here saw the pic and can tell where the flight went to???
This tells me we were going to cut him....that is what teams do try to trade a guy they are looking to cut. 3rd round pick by a regime to be cut loose this soon. Good for them its what we want - a team that isn't hung onto just cause we drafted them. Crowell who apparently is a better talent we lucked into took his place. Shows RB is not that rare position if we need one we can get one.
If they sign Rice??? don't know how I feel, he is young and his legs are fresh. He paid for slugging his fiance...he married her and lost a lot. As long as he is not a locker room cancer and can help the Browns I'm good with it.
But we don't necessarily need another RB.
Oh and my first post on the trade Trent: I am so so happy cause I cannot remember trading a player from the clean up of another Regime getting a FIRST ROUNDER...and more n more looking so so lopsided
What's silly will be your retake on this once it comes out that West hasn't been traded.
make me lose my coffee this morning. Vers u ass lol
I haven't seen any evidence of this being true.
Its not true someone panicked when they saw a pic of west at the airport and didnt realize many vets especially those that have secured their roster spot leave town for the weekend. Few want to be around the facility on cut day if they dont have to be.
I've checked with a few sources...not a word about West being traded.
Doesn't mean it might not be true..but at this point, there are "0" facts to back up the rumor.
Before commenting, I decided to check all the usual places for Browns news.. You know, the ones that would jump on this like a pack of crazed dogs.
Not a peep out of them.
I'm having a hard time believing it's true

Me too. It makes no sense.
I could see is one of the backs had a huge preseason, and they needed to create a spot, but that has not been the case thus far.
Add in that we have had tons of nagging type injuries at the RB position, and I see no reason to expect that this is true. Further, reports have been consistent that West has really been working hard in the last 2 weeks.
I see no reason to believe that this is true.
I saw a pic of Tebow at the airport as well so obviously the browns have traded West for Tebow and they are truly 91% done with Johnny Manziel.

Well, there ya go.
I saw that the Raiders want to trade or cut Christian Ponder. Any interest in him as a 3rd strong guy?
How so? I'm stating why it might be. So because I went and took a logical explanation of what the reasoning would be for this to transpire.
No where am I saying - Great I wanted him gone.
Actually I see you had to come back cause you looked so so bad Dissing West throughout this training camp n now you say Farmer is WRONG in this decision...you are so bias it ain't funny 
not laughing guy.

Ponder is a young Josh McCown. That is not a good thing.
Browns fielding offers for West Could Cleveland Browns running back Terrance West be on the move?
A source familiar with the team's thinking told Around The NFL on Saturday that the Browns have fielded offers for the former third-round pick, which could make the final hours of Saturday's roster cut down rather interesting.
Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain-Dealer suggested on Saturday that West was not safe from a potential cut, which may be why the team is looking to garner an offer first.
The team has yet to confirm any cuts.
Over 79 snaps this preseason, West racked up 113 yards over 31 carries. West has displayed some characteristics of a lead back, but is stuck in a rotation with Isaiah Crowell. Browns head coach Mike Pettine recently hinted that Crowell took the lead between both backs, and the team will eventually expect some production from rookie Duke Johnson. Johnson is currently going through concussion protocol.
West, who averaged almost four yards per carry during his rookie season in 2014, could be a valued asset depending on how teams stack their depth chart following roster downsizing.

I was just reading about this on cleveland.com
I wonder what they'll do with him? (Hmmmmmmm, I wonder....)
Thank goodness haha I feel somewhat vindicated, or at least not looking like an idiot for posting the original "rumor"
Nevertheless, I don't care if West is on the team
Well, I guess more folks are talking about it now.. Maybe it's true... Not that he HAS been traded, but that he's "ON THE BLOCK"
Mary Kay is just retweeting your rumor.
Mary Kay is just retweeting your rumor.
I didn't know she cared so much about me
Maybe I can get a date with her
not the first time the media has gained their info from this site
Sadly, I agree that West hasn't done enough on the field to solidify his spot. I like West's potential. I also like Crowell. The Crow hasn't shown enough either to be considered a indisputable lead RB, for the record.
I wholeheartedly disagree that West has been a cancer or a distraction.
For a player whose status is tenuous the team is correct to explore their options. At the same time a RB depth chart of Crowell, Johnson and Draughn does not inspire confidence. The team would have to bring in another back. Far from sure that it should be Ray Rice. More so because of his diminished production at the end of his tenure in Baltimore.
I think the Browns would much rather trade West than cut him, because they don't want him going to the Ravens. They did trade a 4th and a 6th to move up in the 3rd round of the 2014 draft to take West, reportedly just before the Ravens were going to take him.
we could pick up one of the guys out there that outplays all our drafted backs...we had that with c. ogbinoya(sp), bobby rainy, fozzy whittaker.
my guess was atlanta. if he is traded.
I heard Terrence West was a part of Shanahan's PowerPoint presentation.
That would have been point #28.

If West isn't good enough to be on our roster then why should there be any consideration of who he might sign with if relaseed? Either he's a asset that has value to the Browns or not. At least that's how I see it.
On a related note now there is some talk that the team could be shopping him to the Texans who don't have much with Foster being unavailable.
Trading Terrance
J/C ..... I read something that said that the Browns asked for too much from the Cowboys for West ..... so the Browns could cut him instead.
That makes zero sense. If they are going to cut him anyway, then a conditional 7th round pick is better than nothing.

That's what I was thinking. But maybe the Cowboys were thinking that a conditional 7 is too much........
If Mary Kay is the main reporter saying the West is in danger of being cut then I don't put much faith in the report. Given our RB depth this doesn't make much sense to me unless the team has already made preliminary plans for his replacement. His training camp doesn't grade out to being a guy who is either traded or as a last resort cut as the report suggest. If that's the logic then Crowell's camp doesn't establish him as the clear lead back either.

Thats too hypothetical for my taste. There's absolutely nothing to support that speculation. When something remotely resembling a fact related to that becomes available, I might have some opinion on it. Until then, pursue all the SWAG you're comfortable with.

She is not.
From the article you posted:

Fielding offers is different than shopping a guy around.
Just saying....
Wonder if we are hitting grounders or Fly balls ?
I think West has an attitude problem, didn't he get suspended for a game last year or wasn't allowed to dress for the game something like that? Not to mention he still dances around too much, I'm not sad to see him go. If he is traded we will certainly have to sign another back yes? The chances of a Rice signing have just gone up, if not who will we get?
If Mary Kay is the main reporter saying the West is in danger of being cut then I don't put much faith in the report.
She is not.
Perhaps this is all moot now that the regular season 53 has been announced. Most often these reports start with the local beat writer then the get picked up by national press who summarize, paraphrase and make assumptions based on the earliest reports. MKC seems to be the culprit at least in terms of lending credence to this story.
I don't think roster moves are over and it's still possible the team deals West. At the moment it would seem that MKC's sources have not been reliable, again.

Once more, as in the very post you quoted, she is not the source of the information ... but rather she just relayed what someone else had written. (similar to the ESPN "NFL Insiders", who pick up a report from the wire, and then we hear "According to NFL Insider So And So .... "

That's a very possible theory, kind of like the Phil Taylor situation.

That would be hilarious. West has accomplished nothing to deserve that right.
People got to stop making things up. Nowhere has it been said he wanted traded, that was mentioned here by someone. All that was said was that Dallas inquired about him and we wanted too much for him. Definitely doesn't sound to me like he's being shopped around.
I hate that people make speculations, and others take it as fact. IMO, he is wanted here, or he would have been sent to Dallas.
This is why I hate Twitter. People tweet crap out very quickly without thinking, and others take it as fact.
Most dont like West for whatever reason and they encourage each other in finding reasons to dislike the kid. These are 21-22 year old kids that need to grow up but it would be nice if people would give them a chance to do that. I mean I know everyone on this board was perfect at 21. They went to church 3 times a week, dedicated themselves to their job and shunned temptations of the flesh.
People got to stop making things up. Nowhere has it been said he wanted traded, that was mentioned here by someone. All that was said was that Dallas inquired about him and we wanted too much for him. Definitely doesn't sound to me like he's being shopped around.

From a #Browns friend, it sounds like the desire to part ways is mutual between the team and Terrance West.

I felt the same until the story popped up they he had a fit when asked to put his pads on when he was hurt.
Poor attitude which was the gossip on him last year and thus far, perhaps hasn't changed.
If we can get something, I'm all for trading. If we can't get much, then keep him and run him.
The Texans are interested in trading for West, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com.
Spin: The Texans, who could possibly be without Arian Foster anywhere from four-to-six weeks during the regular season, are looking for some added depth at running back. The team was inconsistent running the ball during the preseason, prompting head coach Bill O'Brien to consider additions both in the backfield and along the offensive line.

Thwt makes sense... They who've two average running backs currently and foster will likely be out for six weeks

For the record, I could care less if a player has attitude problems. I just don't think West is good.
Maybe some should have breathalyzers hooked to their keyboards.
That would pretty much shut down the site... without it even being hacked...

Who took anything as a fact? Pblack threw out a theory is all, if all you want is facts then watch the news as it breaks. What is the point of this board if not to throw around ideas and opinions?

Mourg..I actually don't like West... I do know that no-one has encouraged me to think that way.. And I pretty much know all I did was state why I didn't

I can't agree more ... Problem for me is.. How old is T-Rich.. and How many chances did he have.. Plenty Mourg.. He was given a chance by 3 teams..
As much as we believe in a player or want him here.. seems like us basic fans don't always know or see things at the professional level.
I mean I know everyone on this board was perfect at 21
It was the only year in my life I was...:)
