Cleveland Browns (Finally drafting Buckeyes)

I suspect the Browns will be a VERY active player in the FA market with something like $56M in cap space
They realize they are finally in a position that going on a FA spending spree will pay dividends and be money well spent
I also suspect the FAs know Cleveland is a major up and comer...

So I'm looking for HUGE things from my Brownies

Well...don’t. :lol: Dorsey was on the radio not long ago and said he doesn’t believe in spending big in FA. His philosophy is designed around using cap money to extend guys you build in the draft. Now, 4 teams (one of which is the Browns) literally control half the cap space, so I don’t expect them to do nothing...but, I wouldn’t expect Dorseyvto try and assemble an all star team either. If anything, he might trade for a guy and sign him to an expensive extension.

John Dorsey on signing free agent running back Kareem Hunt:

“My relationship and interaction with Kareem since 2016 in college was an important part of this decision making process but we then did extensive due diligence with many individuals, including clinical professionals, to have a better understanding of the person he is today and whether it was prudent to sign him. There were two important factors: one is that Kareem took full responsibility for his egregious actions and showed true remorse and secondly, just as importantly, he is undergoing and is committed to necessary professional treatment and a plan that has been clearly laid out.”

“We fully understand and respect the complexity of questions and issues in signing a player with Kareem’s history and do not condone his actions. Given what we know about Kareem through our extensive research, we believe he deserves a second chance but certainly with the understanding that he has to go through critical and essential steps to become a performing member of this organization, aside from what the NFL determines from their ongoing investigation. We fully understand that Kareem is subject to discipline by the NFL. Here at the Browns, there is a detailed plan with expectations laid out that he understands and must follow, because any similar incident will not be tolerated. We will support Kareem through this process and utilize our resources, however permitted, to help him become successful on and off the field as long as he continues to show the commitment necessary to represent this organization.”
