Dan2330 Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 ESPN had a quick story on reporting that the Browns web site mentioned a deal was done with Pat's wide receiver Givins, but the story was not true. Apparently Givins was so ticked off about the story he decided to bypass Cleveland and visit other teams. Nice move Brownies! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmyBengal Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 The Browns will attract someone to play for them if for no other reasons then, Romeo Crennel, and LOTS OF CASH !!! I still hate the Browns, but think they will have a MUCH better season next year. Oh yeah, I DO think Charlie Frye is going to have a larger impact this year and in years to come.WHODEY !!!

turningpoint Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 yeah IMO charlie frye will be a decent qb, but never a probowler.just enough to fulfill those stupid f**king retarded ass fans to a 9-7 season year after year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bengalboomer7 Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 I now live close to where Charlie played his high school ball(Williard, OH) and everyone here thinks he's stupid. I don't know anything about him, but his own hometown doesn't seem to promote him that much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmyBengal Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 He didn't do that bad last year when he got in there and this year he will have dumbass Winslow and Braylon Edwards back. That certainly can't hurt them. Their running game isn't that bad either with Droughns. If their defense lives up to potential, they could have a better than average season... Here's to hoping they won't !!!WHODEY !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMC Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 The Clowns will attract decent D help in FA because of Crennel....But why Romeo and not Marvin...difference in team-building philosophies I guess.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbx182 Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 call it what it is!!! it's what FA's did to the bengals for so long; use them to get real teams to pony up the $$$! man, it totally looks different from the other side...you know, before marvin. not like the bengals are gonna sign anyone big anyway. other than our own offensive lineman, i hope!!! "sign the left side!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derekshank Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 This is probably the single biggest problem with the new collective bargaining agreement. There is now so much money out there for teams to use... and a pretty damn shallow FA pool to choose from. What does this mean? Free Agents will be able to demand much more than their market value, and probably get it. I would love Kemo... and he would certainly help our D-Line... but I will be very surprised if I see Mike Brown cough up that much money for a guy like that.With Brown's philosophy of never overpaying (which is not a bad philosophy) we are not likely to land anybody of real consequence. We were in great cap shape before... but this new deal put a lot of teams in great shape... and these other teams have not been shy about overspending in the past, so nothing will probably change now with a bigger cap.The Bengals will continue to be safe with their cap money... and we will probably be in even better shape next year. The only bright side I see is that with the new deal, we should have enough to extend Chad and our O-Line.... maybe we'll be able to land a guy next year when the market evens out.

Whur CHad At? Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 Mikey said they will spend this year, so expect them to spend at least some money. I think it is stupid to have enough room under the cap and not bring anyone in. You are just letting all of that free money sit there which is stupid.

CPalmer9 Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 Browns just inked LeCharles Betley and Kevin Shaffer. With these two guys in the mix that browns O-Line is starting to look quite impressive. But still not good enough because the Bengals will roll on them twice in this upcoming season. http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2364025 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
