You hear about this yet?

Source: Ohio State reached out to police after EJ Liddell recieved threatening tweets following NCAA tournamnet loss

One jackass threatened to find him and harm him. Another one said " You're such a f-ing disgrace. Don't ever show your face at Ohio State. We hate you. I hope you die I really do."

What the hell is wrong with people?

Though typical complainers in their forums will complain about something thrilled with what the Browns have done so far, especially given the reduced cap. Figured they'd do an about face from last year and upgrade D and did with an elite player. Their kind...ascending coming off rookie deal. Also some other quality players. Like that nearly all the defensive guys (other than Takk) were from solid units on really good defenses.

Thought I saw currently top in spending for 2021 with only $1 mil in dead cap money. Shows they have a handle on how to use the cap to their advantage. Guess that could change if they end up needing to cut someone.

AB has done a great job in my mind and he has seemed to fill every hole, basically, and did it with not a ton of cap space being patient and not forcing signings like some teams. I’m extremely impressed. Their depth is much better now obviously would still like to address depth at CB, another DE and speed at WR but there is not one signing I can complain about and other than DE they have upgraded at every position they needed. McKinley is a good signing for the price and has that big upside.

Guess if there was anything I could think of to question might be is Takk an upgrade really to Claybourn? But no doubt they get the benefit of the doubt. Wonder if he's going to get the Claybourn backup role (and they'll find a starter via draft, FA or trade) or if they will just have him start.

I wouldn't mind a minimum deal to Vernon as insurance for someone late in season or possible playoffs.

I actually think he will get a ton more time than Clayborn. They have wanted that kid since he was drafted but I guess it depends if they get another DE or draft one.

Now I feel like this gives them a clear opportunity to trade up in the draft if they love a guy or even trade back for more assets in 2022. They have so many options. Refreshing!

Id have preferred them going for another vet at that spot but it's looking like they are going to draft an edge since they signed Walker at LB. I'm guessing all the money thrown at the edge guys scared them off.

Same. I would be fine with Houston or Dunlap on a 1 year deal. I’m sure they would have to restructure contracts or make a cut to make that happen though. Projection is 5.48M cap currently

Was it you? I remember you did shit on the kid

No doubt he was awful the final 4 minutes of the game and panics when doubled but I don't have twitter, so I think I'm cleared.

and that probably does not include spending $8 mil or so on rookies.

I believe it did/ does

 

[bksballer89]

Give me 20 minutes. Should be home shortly

 

[dtgold88]

so they still have $5 mil available PLUS rookie pool money?
