Ha well let's just say it's probably a good move for both parties at this point. I'm still baffled that they passed on all the WR's in this years deep draft class.

Austin, Earl Bennett and Hawkins are their starting WR right now

The Browns stayed true to their board and I don't necessarily blame them. They found skill position players that help solidify both offense and defense. Gordon will most likely be back before the end of the season with the NFL re-evaluating their position on weed and next year's draft can be spent on WR, S, RB, etc. In the meantime, there are plenty of stop-gaps like Austin out there available.

Wasn't the last good game Austin had in the NFL against us in 2011? 2 or 3 TDs? That games still pisses me off.

With that WR core, the Browns are better off throwing Hoyer to the wolves and taking it slowly with Manziel.

Which I believe is the plan. I wouldn't put Manziel back there until they feel as if their OL is one of the top 10 in the league. If he has to run for his life consistently, he's going to get killed. Never mind not having WR targets.

:suds:

This is the kind of stuff I look to spend my time doing on SportsHoopla......rather than debating.

I don't mind debating in a context that we did in the Hoop's infancy...although I appreciate the humor much more!

My life is serious all day....need to escape from time to time. I don't mind those who like to debate. I just hate getting sucked into it on here.

I don't know how much gas Austin has left in the tank. Browns also signed Bennett.
