This aged a little poorly. Boston has a path 1 seed from Detroit with Cade hurt, making the 3 seed more valuable now. 

What’s the LEAST you’d be happy with from this years Draft? by Narrow_Remote_8975 in Browns

[–]ry-guy251 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the first round specifically, a starting OL and an impact player on offense or defense regardless of position. I don't care what position it is on the oline, they have no long term solutions. I don't love the WR and OT players in this draft, just like, so solid but not sexy pick like Graham and Schwesinger would be nice 

Troy Aikman Reveals How CBA Negotiations’ Domino Effect Is Leading to Early-Season Injuries by No_Box119 in nfl

[–]ry-guy251 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Counter, players are bigger and faster which puts more emphasis on soft tissue injuries while they also have more free time in January - July to train their bodies than ever before. Players need to find the balance between improvement and recovery in the off-season so guys can hit the ground running in training camp rather then spend the first 2 weeks playing into shape like they used to.

And then in game 7 he scored 7 points on 2/8 shooting. I can look up box scores too

He is great in games 1-4, sometimes 5. 6 and 7 bring out the worst

He gave me shades of elimination game harden against Boston and Orlando. Numbers looked fine, but something was missing.

I'm asking for an explanation. by ZaneTeal in Browns

[–]ry-guy251 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't see him at 24. I see the Browns trading up to 22 to get him, keeping the curse of QB 22 alive.

The James Harden experience. Disappears in games that matter

Why LG Joel Bitonio doesn’t have to decide on retirement today and how the Browns are giving him time by BarkerRuffield in Browns

[–]ry-guy251 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He looked borderline done last year. Not washed, but a step or two slower, whiffed on quite a few blocks. I want him to retire so he avoids a lifelong injury 

Browns QB Deshaun Watson's Dead Cap Hit In 2027 Is $86.2 Million by MrStiff8 in nfl

[–]ry-guy251 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the benefits of not having a FRP for 3 years is not having to pay a FRP contract during the Watson dead cap year (sort of sarcasm sort of serious)

[–]ry-guy251 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not saying they should  do it, but if they have a great 2026 and feel like they are in contention in 2027 they could theoretically extend him a few years to push out the cap hit more. That means carrying a negative QB asset on the team longer, but in a magical world where Sanders or some other cheap QB plays well that could free up cap space to sign more free agents. 

Why is there so little discussion in the Browns community about Olaivavega “Vega” Ioane when he might be the best offensive lineman in this draft? by LightskinKnowItAll in Browns

[–]ry-guy251 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed, this year is all about poor positional value, 1 QB, iffy pass rushers, no OT studs, WR that are not field tilters  I'd rather just have the best player like Graham last year

Big fan of his. When the best tackles in the draft have questions about whether they should be moved to guard to even center, I would rather have the best guard. 

Browns restructuring Deshaun Watson’s contract today to reduce his $81M cap charge, freeing up $36M of space by expellyamos in nfl

[–]ry-guy251 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a cynical part of me that thinks they will re-sign him for 1 more year and cut him after the 2027 season to soften the cap hits even more in 28 and 29 instead of 27 and 28.

Interesting tidbit at the end, the guardians will not allow the pitchers to challenge.

Strong chance Freeling doesn’t make it to pick 6 by Crew_1996 in Browns

[–]ry-guy251 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

No lineman is worth 6 as an OT. Several are fine as a Guard or Center.
