2018 Cleveland Browns Off Season Thread

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
I used to get annoyed by the “stats are for losers” football guys crowd but I think there’s starting to be a problem on the other side of the spectrum where people rely too heavily on numbers. The truth usually lies somewhere in the middle. Landry is a much better receiver than his numbers last year suggest.
 
Can never escape Sashi. He’ll always be with us

The way I look at it, it's not unfair to question the concept of paying a guy who pretty clearly does not match the production profile of a number one receiver number one receiver money. I just don't really think it's a huge deal for us because we have so much fucking cap space.
 
Last season:

Duke 74 catches/93 targets 7.45 yds/tgt
Landry 112 catches/162 targets 6.13 yds/tgt

Cool.

Now we have both. The versatility of having Duke line up in the back field and Landry in the slot is huge.

Long sustained drives that keep the QB confident and the defense off the field.
 
Or he had one bad run with the worst offensive mind in football (Jeff Fisher)
Doesn't even matter. With his price tag, I'd rather just draft a rookie or overpay for one of the remaining FA quarterbacks.... versus trade a high pick AND sign him to a lucrative extension.
 
As Landry's efficiently on targets becomes the target of scrutiny, how does one forget who threw the passes?

Jay Cutler, Matt Moore, and something called a David Fales. Even his name contained failure.

The year before, Landry caught 94 balls on 131 targets for a solid 72%. Tannehill was no Brady either, of course. Let's see how he produces with Gordon and my favorite emerging Brown in 2018: David Njoku.

We only talk about who threw the passes when we try to defend Corey Coleman.
 
Mike Silver is a dick
It’s all good. He talks so much I figured why not suck up to him and see if he lets anything slip.

He is a bit of a dick but there is also no denying he is one of the most connected NFL media members. He may not have been out in front of those story but he nails tons of legit info in between spamming Twitter 24/7
 
Now

Who's our starting QB?

And

Who's our starting RB?
