Stripes Posted June 1 Report Posted June 1 Myles Garrett was just traded to the Rams for Jared Verse and draft capital. Thanks, Cleveland. 1 1 Quote
Saintsfan1 Posted June 1 Report Posted June 1 This might be the perfect year to give Josh Allen or Lamar Jackson false hope. They're not beating the Rams. Quote

ArmyBengal Posted June 2 Report Posted June 2 It’s really like the movie Draft Day happening for real and it’s the Browns. ”You sold a cow for magic beans” 1 Quote
HoosierCat Posted June 2 Author Report Posted June 2 In all seriousness I don’t think it was a horrible trade. The Browns are hosed until they finish passing that fully guaranteed kidney stone named Deshaun Watson, so trading a DE who will turn 31 this year for a rising young player and multiple picks including a first is a reasonable move. It’s more or less what we were arguing the Bengals ought to have done with Trey before last season. You can say that they didn’t get enough for Garrett, and you would be right, but this is probably the best they were going to do. Still great news for Burrow, Lamar and the geriatric in Pitt tho. 1 Quote
ArmyBengal Posted June 2 Report Posted June 2 Verse has proven to be a solid player, so that was a good thing for them THIS year. 3 picks aren't a bad haul either, but they are spaced out over the next three years. I don't like the spread of picks personally. A 1st in 2027 A 2nd in 2028 A 3rd in 2029 Since the Browns restructured Watson's contract, he either will still be on the roster in 2027 or the Browns will be on the hook for an ass load of dead cap dollars. It's the single worst contract in the NFL and will continue to haunt them for seasons to come. Yes, Burrow has yet ANOTHER reason to be super motivated this year. 1 Quote
HoosierCat Posted June 2 Author Report Posted June 2 Well, this is the final real year of Watson’s contract; 2027-30 are all void years (yes, 4 void years!). So while he’s headed to FA, he’ll still be on the Browns’ books for 35, 26, 17 and 9 million through 2030. So yeah, worst contract ever. Quote
Prophecy Posted June 2 Report Posted June 2 Browns actually did something smart. Jared Verse is a damn good player, and the future 1st, 2nd and 3rd Rd picks? But MOST importantly for a team going nowhere in the next few years, getting rid of Myles Garrett's contract which has Cap hits of $58 million in '29 and $58 Million in '30 when he would be 33 and 34 years old. If they want to find a QB and be competitive in the next 4 years, they cannot do it with those types of Cap Hits for an over the hill DE. This is perfect timing for dumping that contract. 2 Quote

HoosierCat Posted June 3 Author Report Posted June 3 Oh joy another joint practice with da bears. Wonder how many season ending injuries we get this time… https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl/bengals-bears-to-hold-joint-practice-before-their-preseason-game/ar-AA24FBZ8 Quote
Stripes Posted June 3 Report Posted June 3 I don’t know why we do those. The joint practice with the Rams immediately after the Super Bowl has to be one of Taylor’s dumbest moves. 1 Quote

I blame stripes. Slander. I would never 1) go to southern Indiana, 2) be in the company of numerous 70+ year old people, or 3) sing anything their demographic would sing 1 Quote
ArmyBengal Posted June 4 Report Posted June 4 To the plus, you can be almost anywhere in a bar and manage. Numerous 70+ year old people? Not really my thing for a bar setting, but again.... "Bar" Folk songs? Sure, I guess "Bar" is still the potential silver lining here, but one rendition of Puff the Magic Dragon and I might start throwing walkers at people. Fuck you grandpa, don't make me break your hip. Quote
