2018 Browns Free Agent Thread

Do Not Sell My Personal Information

I still want to bring in a solid veteran WR, so who is all left on that end that could make some differences for us?

Feels like this ship has sailed.

Reliable or not, Gordon-Landry-Coleman are locked in as the top 3 guys. I just don't see many quality veteran WRs racing to sign up to be relapse/broken hand insurance. Whoever the Browns were to sign out of who's left is going to be WR4. Not a lot of opportunities for WR4.

If they want to add to the WR room, just draft a kid.

Doesn't have to be a good receiver to bring in a vet. It could just be a solid #4 guy who won't command hardly any money.

It might be good for the receiving room.

Ehhh maybe.

I'm not really a fan of bringing in players who can't play for leadership/mentor purposes unless they're at a position where the odds are very likely they won't see action, like third quarterback.

WR4, WR5, those guys often play on special teams or actually do need to be capable in case Gordon relapses or Coleman gets dinged again.

I feel bad for Pryor. He took horrible advice from Rosenhaus that ended up costing him tens of millions.

Exactly his agent steered him the wrong way last year. The way NFL contracts and in contract negotiations go, you always take the guaranteed money and years.

If Pryor out plays the contract the Browns were willing to give him, he could renegotiate it. Teams and players do it all the time.

We dont know he got bad advice. He could have very easily went against the advice of his agent.

He did fire Drew Roenhaus before free agency started so I assume he bad advice.
 
Drew Rosenhaus used Pryor as a market-setting body. He didn't work for Pryor, he worked for his agency.
 
So he made $6m last year and at minimum $2m this year. Not too far off the $10.5m guaranteed Britt got.

Of course if he had played well he would've made much more.
