Johnny Manzel and a 2nd round pick doesnt get it done. So I call BS on this rumor. No way we trade Bradford for less than what we traded for him. We dealt Foles, a 2nd and 4th. Manzel is not worth anything at this point. Heck I wouldnt even trade Marcus Smith for him. We simply would be doing Cleveland a favor by taking on Manzel. The only equivilat value wise would be #12.

Apparently my post from the other thread belongs here...

Manziel blows. He's not even a good QB and he's got all the off-field stuff. People are so stupid about him.

If they want him that bad, I wouldn't even listen to any phone calls from them unless they were offering 12 AND 19. Plus they can throw in Manziel as fodder. Otherwise, don't even bother.

Rumor: Browns trying to trade Johnny Manziel to Eagles for Sam Bradford, draft pick - Dawgs By Nature

This time using Johny football and a pick? Probably just rumors but no thanks. I was big on Manziel before I realized he likes the night life a little too much and couldn't focus on his game. But I also know Chip was big on him and tried to recruit him to the Ducks so who knows.

As a Cleveland-area native, what I can tell you is that should the Browns offer you a trade you should TAKE IT. Any trade involving the Browns is certain to turn out exceptionally well for the other team and turn out to a pile of shit for the Browns.

Trent Richardson comes to mind when you say this. :D

That sounds like some reverse-psychology crap to me :D I'm not biting unless the Browns are offering BOTH of their first rounders. Then I'll gladly take Manziel off your hands as icing on the cake.

For a guy like Bradford hoping to get his career back on track any rumors about heading to Cleveland must be scaring the shit out of him.

Alright, alright. So I suppose more accurately, trades involving the Browns don't always work out for the other team, but I'm fairly sure they never work out for the Browns.

Do you know that chick in your avatar? It's a pretty small pic, but she looks like she'd be a lot of fun.

Hahaha. The Browns' ability to fuck up regardless of who owns, manages or plays for them is a source of constant amazement to me.

I wish! I was at a sports bar a couple of years ago in Florida and she did it as a gag to get some laughs for some of the patrons - obviously she had one too many, but she was pretty sweet :thumb:

It's been my experience that a chick who would wear a belly shirt and flip flops to a sports bar and bend over, simulating getting plowed by Tiger for a photo opp would be a fun thing to play with.

It was actually pretty funny, there was about 10-12 of us lining up to take a picture, until the manager came over and broke it up!

What can I say, if you've ever been to Florida, then you know what I'm talking about. The girls down there are awesome.

This rumor is getting a lot of attention on social media, but until I see someone reputable confirm it, color me skeptical.

That said, this is the kind of deal Chip would do. We know he liked Manziel--he recruited him to Oregon. We know the Browns coveted Bradford. I could see something happening, with maybe the Eagles throwing in a player like Boykin.

Boykin and Bradford for Manziel and the #19 overall selection.

As a fan of a division rival, I'd love to see Manziel behind center for the Eagles.

Manziel sucks.....I said it when the media had a lovefest with Johnny Football and I say it now it.

Manziel is not tradeable for any decent player. The best the Browns can hope get for him is a 6th or 7th round pick.

I think you do not give Chip enough credit - there is no way he would make a trade like this. Manziel is an over-rated freak show who should have been drafted in the third or fourth round, at best. But most people got caught up in the hype and he was grossly over-drafted. If Chip wanted him that badly he would have taken him at 22, he was right there for the taking and they passed (thank God).

My only wish was that the Cowboys were stupid enough to take him last year, that would have made my draft regardless of what we ended up doing.

The trade would essentially be Bradford for a first. The other elements are minor.
